Bookkeeper (Maternity Cover)

Cubed Talent is proud to be partnering with an established Yorkshire textiles manufacturer with a 100 year heritage, supplying customers across the UK and internationally, to find a capable Accounts all-rounder to cover a period of maternity leave.

If you like a finance role with genuine variety - a bit of everything rather than one narrow lane - and you're after part-time hours that leave room for the rest of life, this one's worth a look. 20 hours a week across 4 days, in a friendly, employee-owned business.

The role

Reporting to the Managing Director, you'll keep the finance function ticking over across payroll, ledgers, banking and reporting. It's a hands-on, self-sufficient role, so you'll be comfortable owning your workload and getting on with it.

What you'll be doing

• Payroll — running monthly payroll for hourly and salaried staff, submitting to HMRC and the pension provider, and answering staff pay queries.
• Ledger management — sales ledger (invoices, statements, credit control and weekly sales reports) and purchase ledger (processing invoices, monthly supplier payment runs, checking statements and handling supplier queries).
• Banking — daily reconciliation of all bank accounts, preparing payments, reconciling credit card and petty cash, and managing cashflow.
• Financial reporting — quarterly VAT returns, maintaining and reconciling prepayments, monthly journals and ad-hoc reporting.

What we're looking for

Experience of payroll processing is essential, along with solid Excel skills and the confidence to work independently. Experience with Xero and BrightPay would be a real bonus, but isn't essential.

Hours & benefits

• * £16 - £18 per hour depending on experience
• * Part-time: 20 hours per week, worked across 4 days — great work-life balance
• * Employee Ownership Trust - you'll be part of an employee-owned business, with a genuine stake in its success
• * Regular team events
• * Monthly rewards
• * On-site parking
