Accounts Payable Clerk

Our client is an established, growing manufacturer with a strong reputation for quality and service. It’s a busy, fast-paced environment where finance works closely with the rest of the business.

The role

This is a hands-on Accounts Payable role for an experienced professional who wants real ownership of the purchase ledger. You won’t have a management title, but you will have plenty of autonomy.

Key responsibilities

• Process supplier invoices and credit notes accurately and on time: coding, approval and posting

• Reconcile supplier statements and resolve pricing, PO and goods-received discrepancies

• Prepare payment runs with the right checks and authorisations in place

• Keep supplier master data accurate and verify any bank detail changes

• Be the go-to contact for supplier and internal queries

• Monitor aged creditors and outstanding liabilities, and clear issues before they grow

• Support month-end, including accruals, reconciliations and audit requests

• Improve processes and controls across purchase-to-pay

About you

• Previous purchase ledger experience, ideally in a high-volume or manufacturing setting

• Confident running the full invoice-to-payment cycle with minimal supervision

• Reconciliation and problem-solving skills
