Purchase Ledger/Finance Assistant

Purchase Ledger/Accounts Assistant

Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire

£30k + Excellent Benefits

Would you like to join a successful, well-established business that offers genuine job security, a supportive team environment and the opportunity to grow your career within finance?

Our client is a market-leading UK business with a strong reputation for quality, innovation and continued investment. As a result of ongoing success and expansion, they are looking to appoint an experienced Purchase Ledger/Accounts Assistant to join their friendly finance team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a collaborative environment and wants to broaden their finance experience within a stable organisation that continues to invest in both its people and its future.

Why You'll Love This Role

• Join a successful, financially secure business with an excellent reputation
• Become part of a welcoming finance team of eight experienced professionals
• 37.5-hour working week with flexible start and finish times
• 25 days' annual leave plus Bank Holidays
• Free on-site parking
• Exposure to a varied finance role, not just purchase ledger
• Genuine opportunities to develop your skills and progress your career as the business continues to grow
• Supportive management team that encourages learning and personal development

The Opportunity

Reporting into the senior finance team, you'll play a key role in ensuring the smooth running of the purchase ledger function while supporting wider accounting activities across the department.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Processing supplier invoices accurately and efficiently
• Matching invoices to purchase orders and delivery documentation
• Investigating and resolving invoice queries and discrepancies
• Maintaining supplier accounts and accurate master data
• Preparing supplier statement reconciliations
• Supporting weekly payment runs
• Assisting with month-end processes and accruals
• Completing reconciliations and resolving outstanding balances
• Liaising with suppliers and internal departments to resolve queries
• Supporting cash flow management and creditor reporting
• Maintaining accurate financial records and audit trails
• Assisting with year-end audit requirements

About You

You'll already have experience working within Purchase Ledger or a broader Accounts Assistant position and enjoy working in a fast-paced finance environment.

We're looking for someone who has:

• Previous Purchase Ledger or Accounts Assistant experience
• Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach
• Strong reconciliation and problem-solving skills
• The confidence to investigate and resolve supplier queries
• Good communication skills and the ability to build positive working relationships
• A proactive attitude with a willingness to learn and develop
• Good IT skills, including Microsoft Excel

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Many finance roles offer the same day-to-day responsibilities. What makes this opportunity different is the business behind it.

You'll be joining a company that has built its reputation on long-term success, continued investment and looking after its people. You'll work alongside an experienced finance team where your contribution is valued, your ideas are welcomed and your career can continue to develop.

If you're looking for a role that offers stability today and opportunities for tomorrow, we'd love to hear from you.
