- CIPS, AAT, or equivalent professional qualification.
- Good understanding of financial controls and governance.
We’re recruiting for a Procurement & Accounts Coordinator to join an established and growing organisation in North Hampshire.
This is a varied position sitting between procurement, purchasing and accounts payable, giving you responsibility across the purchasing and supplier payment process.
It would suit someone who enjoys a broad role, working with suppliers and colleagues across the business rather than focusing purely on purchasing or transactional finance.
What you'll be doing
- Coordinating purchasing activity and purchase orders
- Processing and checking supplier invoices
- Matching invoices against purchase orders and goods received
- Investigating and resolving invoice discrepancies
- Liaising with suppliers regarding orders, invoices and payments
- Supporting supplier payment activities

- Producing reports and monitoring key information
- Supporting month-end activities
- Helping improve purchasing and payment processes
What we're looking for
We're open to candidates from a range of backgrounds, including procurement, purchasing, accounts payable, purchase ledger or procure-to-pay.
You'll ideally have:
- Experience within purchasing, procurement or accounts payable
- An understanding of purchase orders and supplier invoices
- Experience using an ERP, finance or purchasing system
- Good Excel skills
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy
- Good communication and supplier-management skills
- The ability to work across different departments and manage competing priorities
A professional qualification such as CIPS or AAT would be advantageous but isn't essential.
This could be a particularly good opportunity for someone currently working as a Purchasing Coordinator, Procurement Assistant, Accounts Payable Coordinator, Purchase Ledger Controller, P2P Coordinator or similar who wants a broader position with greater ownership.
