Part-time role . flexible . hybrid PERFECT

Accounts Assistant - Purchase Ledger
Permanent & Part-time - 30 hours a week
Swansea
£25-26,000 per annum full-time equivalent (that equates up to 13.33 per hour)

This is a fantastic opportunity, working from a Swansea-based office, 30 hours a week across either 4 or 5 days! Once you are fully integrated into the finance team, you will get the chance to work up to one day per week from home, if you wish. The team is highly inclusive, with a great supportive culture. The role will see you performing a range of transactional finance tasks, including the following:

• Processing of supplier invoices
• Matching delivery GRNs and PO numbers
• Reconciling supplier statements
• Assisting with Payment runs
• Issuing invoices
• Supporting the credit control function by monitoring outstanding payments
• Allocating payments to customer accounts
• Resolving supplier queries and customer queries

As you can see, this role does incorporate the full spectrum of double-entry bookkeeping and so it is essential that you have a good working knowledge of transactional finance processing . some formal training such as AAT would be highly advantageous for this role. Their computerised accounting system is widely used in industry; you don't need experience in its use, but you will need to have exposure to some sort of accounting software and have intermediate MS Excel skills. As you will be partnering with stakeholders across the business, you will need to be a bit of a customer service champion.
So, in summary, a great role that you can perform across 4 or 5 days (Monday to Friday, in line with the business' needs), with a fair degree of flexibility to help you manage your other commitments such as childcare or studies. This role is hybrid, and you WILL need to attend the office, but once fully set up, you can work from home for up to one day per week, in line with the business' needs.
If you would like to be considered for this role, please call Emma Lewis on or apply by uploading a current and up-to-date CV. I look forward to hearing from you!
