A part-time role with plenty to get involved in
We’re looking for an organised, dependable and detail-focused Accounts Assistant to join the team.
Working closely with our Head of Accounts, you’ll help keep the day-to-day finances running smoothly—from processing invoices and reconciling statements to answering queries and supporting the wider Accounts Department.
This isn’t a role where you’ll simply be left to enter figures all day. We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership of their work, spotting when something doesn’t look quite right and helping to keep an important part of the business organised and on track.
What you’ll be doing
- Processing supplier invoices and credit notes accurately
- Matching invoices against purchase orders and supporting documents
- Maintaining accurate and up-to-date purchase ledger records
- Reconciling supplier statements and investigating discrepancies
- Responding to supplier and internal payment queries
- Supporting payment preparation and account reconciliations
- Processing expenses and other financial documentation
- Keeping accounting records organised and easy to access
- Assisting the Head of Accounts with day-to-day financial administration
- Getting involved with wider finance duties and reporting when needed
You’ll ideally have previous experience in an accounts, finance or purchase ledger role, but just as importantly, you’ll be someone who is:
- Confident working with numbers and financial information
- Naturally organised with excellent attention to detail
- Comfortable using accounting software and Microsoft Excel
- Able to manage priorities and meet deadlines
- Happy to work independently while remaining part of the wider team
- Professional, approachable and confident communicating with suppliers and colleagues
- Willing to ask questions, solve problems and take responsibility for getting things right
You’ll be joining an established and growing home-improvement business in a role that offers fixed weekday hours, a supportive working environment and the opportunity to make a genuine contribution to the Accounts Department.
If you enjoy bringing order to the numbers, solving the occasional financial mystery and being the person others can rely on, we’d love to hear from you.
