Default change order of 5 letter word based on another cell containing 5 numbers

Hi

This is difficult to explain so please bear with me

Imagine a 5 letter word in cell A1 (ABCDE)
and a 5 digit number in cell A2 (12345)
then cell A3 =ABCDE

if cell A2 =23451
then I need a formula to give the answer as BCDEA in cell A3

A2 is the order I need the letters to be displayed.

Can it be done by a formula?

Can someone help as I dont even know where to start
