Are you looking to start or grow your career in finance? Our client, an industry-leading company that's growing rapidly through acquisitions, is looking for an Accounts Payable Specialist to join their finance team on an immediate basis. This role would suit someone already working in accounts payable or a purchase ledger role but it's equally well suited to a keen graduate, or someone studying towards their AAT, ACCA or CIMA, who's looking for their break into a finance career. If coming from a graduate background, it’s necessary you studied accountancy related modules as part of your degree. Full training and support will be given, so what matters most is your attitude, accuracy and willingness to learn.

- Helping ensure suppliers are paid on time, securing any available discounts
- Completing regular reconciliations and checking/reconciling supplier statements
- Setting up and amending supplier accounts, and processing new supplier account forms
- Handling supplier and internal queries promptly and professionally
- Supporting continuous improvement of systems and processes
- Carrying out general admin duties, including filing and answering calls to the purchase ledger team
- Building strong working relationships with suppliers and colleagues across the business
What we're looking for:
- Experience in a purchase ledger/accounts payable team, or a graduate/AAT/ACCA/CIMA studier keen to build a career in finance
- Available immediately or on a maximum of one week's notice
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy when working with financial data
- Comfortable using Microsoft Office, especially Excel; happy to pick up new accounting software
- Good organisational and time management skills
- Clear, professional communication skills, written and verbal
- A positive, can-do attitude and a genuine willingness to learn
- Reliable, with a strong work ethic and a team-player mindset
