Job Description:

If you know your way around a purchase order and understand how one incorrect code can cause problems further down the line, you'll know how important accuracy is in a finance team.

That attention to detail will be important in this Finance & Admin Assistant role. You'll be joining a small finance team within an established, award-winning civil engineering business, processing supplier invoices, resolving PO discrepancies and dealing with day-to-day finance queries.

There's more to the role than purchase ledger, though. You'll support month-end activities and general office administration too, allowing you to broaden your experience and take on more as you develop.

What you'll be doing:

• Processing supplier invoices, credit notes and expenses.
• Checking invoices for accuracy and duplicate entries.
• Matching delivery notes and waste transfer notes to invoices.
• Reconciling supplier statements.
• Resolving PO discrepancies with the buying team.
• Processing company credit cards.
• Responding to queries through the finance inbox.
• Supporting the finance team with month-end preparation.
• Helping with general office administration when required.

What's in it for you:

• 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays.
• No weekend working.
• Training and development opportunities.
• The chance to broaden your finance experience within a growing business.
• A small, supportive team where your contribution will be valued.

What you'll need:

• Around 12 months' experience in purchase ledger, accounts payable or a similar finance role.
• Strong attention to detail and good financial accuracy.
• Confidence to ask questions and challenge discrepancies when necessary.
• Good communication skills when dealing with colleagues and suppliers.
• A team-focused approach and willingness to support the wider business.
• Sage experience would be useful, but isn't essential.
