Full job descriptionIf you’re an experienced Purchase Ledger Clerk who’s used to working at pace, this one will feel familiar, in the right way.
This is a 6-month fixed-term contract within a busy, high-volume finance environment, and we’re looking for someone who can come in and take ownership straight away. The workload is steady, deadlines matter, and there won’t be time for a slow start. If you know the job and enjoy being busy, you’ll settle quickly.
You’ll be joining a finance team, supporting major UK infrastructure projects, big suppliers, big budgets, and a constant flow of invoices. We’re part of a wider PLC group, but this division is growing fast and has real momentum. People who do the job well get noticed and backed here.
What you’ll be doing
* Processing a high volume of supplier invoices accurately and efficiently
* Matching invoices to purchase orders and delivery notes
* Checking approvals are in place and chasing where needed
* Reconciling supplier statements and keeping the ledger clean
* Handling queries from suppliers and internal teams
* Preparing payment runs and making sure suppliers are paid on time
* Keeping everything up to date so the month-end runs smoothly
What we need from you
* Solid Purchase Ledger / Accounts Payable experience in a busy, high-volume environment
* Confidence to hit the ground running and manage the workload from day one
* Strong Excel skills
* Sage experience is a bonus, but not essential
What’s in it for you
* A manager who values effort, keeps things straightforward, and supports the team
* Private medical cover through BUPA
* 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
* Bonus scheme
* Discounts and cashback across major retailers and supermarkets
* Flexible working
* Office-based role within a growing, supportive finance team
You’ll be busy, and you’ll be trusted to get on with it.
If that sounds like your kind of role, we’d like to hear from you.
