Accounts Payable Clerk
If you re the kind of person who d rather pick up the phone and sort a query out than let it sit in an inbox, this one s worth a look. This is a permanent Accounts Payable role with a genuinely growing business, one that s expanding its footprint quickly and needs someone to grow alongside it. They ve a real track record of investing in people too, including paying for study support for someone who moved up from this exact type of role into management accounts.
This role suits someone who sees themselves as a relationship builder first and a processor second. You ll be liaising constantly with sales, project and supply teams, so confidence picking up the phone and following things through matters more here than pure transactional speed. It s also a genuinely social, friendly team, so you ll want to actually enjoy being part of that, not just clock in and out.

What You Will Be Doing

• Owning proactive query management across a busy shared inbox, chasing things down before they become a problem rather than waiting to be asked
• Building real working relationships with sales, project and supply teams across the business
• Processing supplier invoices accurately, matching them against purchase orders where needed
• Managing account set-ups, statement requests and general queries through the shared inbox
• Handling overhead orders and queries for the wider group
• Reconciling company credit card statements
• Setting up and maintaining supplier account records
• Managing utility invoices and statements across multiple locations, including requesting rebates where due
• Completing monthly supplier statement reconciliations
• Supporting reconciliations against the general ledger and helping with audit requests when needed

What We Need From You

• Someone naturally proactive who genuinely enjoys building relationships, not just processing paperwork
• A confident communicator, comfortable picking up the phone and liaising across departments
• A real team player who ll fit into a close, social team
• Patience: some of the departments you ll be chasing take a bit of following up before they come back to you
• Someone who takes ownership of their own workload and deadlines, and isn t afraid to ask questions when they re stuck
• Open to junior candidates: AP experience is preferred but not essential, and there s genuine time and appetite to train the right person
• Comfortable with Microsoft Excel, Outlook and Word
• Adaptable and willing to pick up new systems and ways of working

What s in it for you

• Genuine progression on offer, including precedent for funding professional study for the right person
• Company bonus
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Life assurance after a qualifying period
• Training and development opportunities
• A close, sociable team who genuinely get on
• Real growth potential as the business continues to expand

If that sounds like your kind of role and your kind of team, we d love to hear from you.
