Job Description

Big things are happening here at Claire’s. A huge global brand (we already have more than 3,500 stores worldwide), we’re now focusing our considerable energies on bringing the latest fashion accessories to high streets all over Europe – and we mean, all over Europe. While we already have some 900 stores in 10 European countries, we’re set to boost that figure to 1,300 by 2012. Ambitious? Of course. Rewarding? You bet. And we need the best talent on our team to make it happen.

Talent wise, it’s languages that are critical: as well as English, you’ll need to be fluent in French. And what will you be doing with such impressive skills?

In Accounts Payable, you’ll make sure all invoices, travel expenses and payments to employees and vendors are made promptly and accurately. Alongside this, you’ll also use your MS Office skills to ensure that we comply with payment terms, keep up our excellent payment record and capably control the department’s paperwork.

In banking, you’ll provide our European stores and internal customers with a prompt, professional banking service. And because you’re also incredibly organised and MS Office literate, we’ll also be looking to you to maintain bank reconciliation packages, inland and overseas payments, alongside answering queries from European colleagues.

Naturally, finance experience would be a definite plus, but as long as you have GCSEs in Maths and English at grade A to C (or equivalent) our training will take care of the rest - we offer abundant opportunity, support (including generous financial funding towards professional qualifications) and encouragement.

There really couldn’t be a better time to join us here at Claire’s. As we flourish, we’ll give you the opportunity to do the same – developing the skills you have, learning new ones and taking your career to places you never imagined. So, what are you waiting for?

You cannot apply for this job as it is no longer active.
