Finance Assistant FTC

Save job

Not your typical Finance Assistant role, you’ll be joining a growing finance team, getting stuck into the detail and gaining exposure that can genuinely move your career forward.

The Opportunity

We’re working with a growing business that is looking to add an experienced Finance Assistant to their finance team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who already has a few years of Accounts Payable / transactional finance experience and is ready to take the next step in their career.

You’ll be joining a busy finance function where accuracy, organisation and attention to detail really matter. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit back and wait for tasks to come in — you’ll be hands-on, dealing with invoices, payments, reconciliations and supporting the wider finance team day to day.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Processing a high volume of supplier invoices accurately and efficiently

  • Matching invoices to purchase orders and resolving discrepancies

  • Managing supplier queries and maintaining strong supplier relationships

  • Preparing and processing payment runs

  • Completing bank and supplier statement reconciliations

  • Investigating and resolving invoice and payment issues

  • Supporting month-end processes and reporting

  • Maintaining accurate finance records and ensuring financial controls are followed

  • Assisting with wider transactional finance duties when required

  • Supporting the wider finance team with ad-hoc projects and tasks

About You

We’re looking for someone who already has a few years of relevant finance experience, ideally with a strong background in Accounts Payable or transactional finance.

You’ll ideally have:

  • 2+ years’ experience within Accounts Payable or a similar transactional finance role

  • Strong understanding of the end-to-end AP process

  • Experience processing invoices and dealing with supplier queries

  • Good knowledge of reconciliations and payment processes

  • Excellent attention to detail and accuracy

  • Strong organisation skills and the ability to manage deadlines

  • Good Excel skills

  • Experience using finance/accounting systems

  • A proactive, hands-on approach

  • The confidence to work independently while also being part of a wider finance team

Why Join?

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who already has a solid foundation in finance and wants to build on that experience within a supportive and established team.

You’ll get exposure to a broad range of finance processes, work alongside experienced finance professionals and have the opportunity to continue developing your career.

If you’re an experienced AP professional who enjoys being hands-on, organised and getting things done, we’d love to hear from you.
