Are you looking to start or develop your career in finance?
We’re working with an organisation in East Sussex that is looking for a Junior Finance / Accounts Payable Specialist to join their team on a temp-to-perm basis.
This would suit a recent Graduate or someone with some previous office or finance experience who is keen to build their knowledge of accounts payable and develop a career within finance.
You’ll support the finance team with the day-to-day processing of invoices and general accounts payable tasks.
Your responsibilities will include
- Processing invoices onto the finance system
- Checking invoices are correct and have the relevant approvals
- Matching invoices to purchase orders where required
- Helping keep supplier records up to date
- Assisting with supplier payments
- Responding to straightforward supplier queries
- Helping resolve invoice or payment discrepancies
- Filing and maintaining finance records
- Using Excel and the finance system to update and check information
- Supporting the wider finance team with general finance administration
You’ll be given support as you learn the processes, so this is a good opportunity for someone who wants to build their finance experience rather than someone who already knows everything.
- What we’re looking for
- You don't need extensive accounts payable experience. We’re looking for someone who is:
- Interested in developing a career in finance
- Ideally has some experience in an office, finance or administration environment
- Comfortable working with numbers and basic financial information
- Confident using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel
- Accurate and organised
- Comfortable communicating with colleagues and suppliers
- Able to manage their workload and meet deadlines
- Reliable and willing to learn
- Happy working as part of a team
Previous accounts payable or purchase ledger experience would be useful, but attitude, attention to detail and a willingness to learn are just as important.
What's on offer?
- £26,000 - £28,000
- Temp to permanent opportunity
- East Sussex location
- Full training and support
- Opportunity to develop your finance knowledge and experience
- The chance to progress within a wider finance function
