Your new role
Reporting to the Subcontract Ledger Supervisor, you will be responsible for ensuring payments are made to subcontractors accurately and on time, in line with Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) regulations and company procedures. You will process payment runs, manage key supplier accounts and work closely with Commercial Teams to resolve payment queries.

You will have good Excel skills and previous experience using a computerised ledger system, with knowledge of COINS being advantageous. An AAT qualification would be preferred but is not essential. You will be organised and methodical, with strong communication skills and the ability to prioritise your workload to meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
