French-Speaking Production Accountant (Junior to Mid-Level) - Creative Agency, London

We’re partnering with a highly regarded, independent creative production company operating within the fashion and luxury sector, delivering innovative work for a globally recognised client base.

With offices in London and Paris, the business offers a fast-paced, collaborative environment at the intersection of creativity and production — and is now looking to hire a French-speaking Production Accountant, open to both developing and more experienced profiles.

This is a broad and hands-on role offering exposure across both UK and French entities. The team is open to:

• A more experienced Production Accountant / Bookkeeper who can take ownership quickly
• Or a high-potential graduate / junior candidate with relevant studies and some initial experience, looking to build a strong foundation

The role will be shaped accordingly, with the level of responsibility and support tailored to experience.

Responsibilities will include:

• Managing or supporting the sales ledger, including invoicing and credit control
• Working on production accounting, including job costing, invoice allocation and job closures
• Assisting with or owning payment runs across UK and French entities
• Performing bank, credit card and intercompany reconciliations
• Supporting month-end processes, including journals, accruals and prepayments
• Assisting with French VAT (TVA) reporting and liaising with external accountants
• Supporting payroll processes, including freelancers in France
• Maintaining finance systems (Xero, Dext) and supporting wider operational tasks

What we are looking for:

We’re open to a range of profiles, but you will likely have:

• Fluent (ideally native level) French, with strong English communication skills
• Experience in finance, accounting or bookkeeping (from internship level through to ideally 4+ years)
• Exposure to Xero (essential for more experienced candidates; advantageous for junior profiles)
• Experience with Dext or similar systems (a plus)
• A degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or similar (particularly relevant for junior candidates)
• Strong attention to detail and a proactive, organised approach
• Confidence working both independently and as part of a team
• Comfort operating in a fast-paced, evolving environment

Benefits

• The opportunity to either step into ownership or build a strong finance foundation
• Exposure to high-profile, global projects
• Hybrid working (2 days from home)
• Pension scheme and gym contribution

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing business where the role can evolve with you – whether you’re looking to deepen your existing experience or take the next step in your finance career.
