Accounts Payable Clerk

If you know your way around a purchase ledger and want a role where you're trusted to run it, not just feed it, this is worth a look.

You'll join a supportive finance team at an established, growing industrial services company in Basildon, taking ownership of the purchase ledger: processing supplier invoices accurately and at pace, raising and issuing purchase orders against the company's authority matrix, reconciling supplier statements and resolving queries directly with suppliers and internal teams. You'll assist with payment runs, keep ledger records in good order, and support month-end.

Exposure to the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) and its impact on subcontractor payments is a plus.

This suits an Accounts Payable Clerk, Purchase Ledger Clerk or AP Administrator who's done the job before and wants a ledger of their own to manage.

• Proven experience in accounts payable or purchase ledger
• Confidence processing high volumes of invoices accurately and to deadline
• Experience reconciling supplier statements and resolving queries independently
• Good Excel skills and a methodical, well-organised approach
• Awareness of CIS is a plus, not essential
