Finance Officers provide comprehensive financial support to a Finance Manager or Head of Finance. The Finance Officer’s job may also be referred to as Assistant Accountant.

The main duty of a Finance Officer is the preparation of financial information, which can include budgets. Finance officers can take on financial accounting or management accounting responsibilities and often do include a mixture of both. It is essential that they ensure finance procedures are followed at all times.
