About the Role

  • Hybrid working - 3 days from the office and 2 days from home
  • Working hours are Monday to Friday 8.30am-5pm
  • Excellent benefits including annual bonus, incentives, private healthcare, contributory pension and life insurance
  • Senior purchase ledger experience required
Working for this highly successful and well-established global organisation, you will be based within a small and established accounts team. The role will be responsible for managing the full cycle of accounts payable, including processing invoices in multiple currencies, managing payments runs as well as taking on more senior level duties including managing another team member and running reports. The company offer a friendly and supportive environment in which to develop your accounts payable skills further.

You will already have in depth purchase ledger experience and be looking for a long-term career within this area of accounts, possibly already having had some line management experience or maybe you are looking to take the next step.

Duties will include:
  • Processing a high volume of multicurrency and intercompany invoices and credits accurately and efficiently
  • Perform intercompany account reconciliations, identifying and resolving discrepancies
  • Conduct monthly supplier statement reconciliations, ensuring all balances are up to date and discrepancies are addressed
  • Manage and resolve invoice-related queries from both external vendors and internal departments
  • Review, analyse, and process monthly employee expense claims 
  • Maintain strong working relationships with vendors through effective communication and issue resolution
  • Prepare and analyse monthly corporate credit card statements, ensuring accurate coding and timely posting
  • Generate and analyse key financial reports
  • Execute and post weekly BACS payment runs to vendors, ensuring timely and accurate payments
  • Manage the Accounts Payable Assistant
We are looking for:
  • Relevant accounts payable experience
  • Ability to take responsibility at a senior level including payment runs and report generation
  • Line management experience is beneficial but not essential, willingness to move your career to a leadership role is key
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Attention to detail
  • Strong IT skills, experience of using SAP or another similar accounts package and MS Office
If you are looking to work in a supportive environment where you are rewarded for your hard work, call us or apply today! This role would ideally suit someone who has a stable work history within purchase ledger and who is keen to take on a more senior position within a small and friendly accounts payable team.
