At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for a Accounts Payable Assistant to play a key role in our Accounts Payable Team in London. If that’s you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

As our Accounts Payable Assistant you’ll manage invoice and payment processing, reconcile accounts, support month-end closing, and contribute to process improvements, ensuring accuracy and compliance in all accounts payable activities.

It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for a growing company is all about. So you’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment as we grow.

What do I need to bring with me?

You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for:

Relevant experience in a fast-paced environment, showcasing a commitment to accuracy, quality and adherence to internal controls while meeting tight deadlines.

Advanced Excel skills (PivotTables, VLOOKUP, SUMFS and Data Tables) and a strong understanding of general ledger, bookkeeping, and accounts payable principles.

Working knowledge of SAP Business One, Procurify, Concur and Spendesk is a plus.

Strong prioritization and multitasking skills, with the ability to work independently and effectively within a team.

Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, exemplified by our leadership team, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.

Interview steps

Preliminary phone call with the Talent Team (no video required)

First video interview with the hiring managers

Second (and final*) video interview with the hiring panel, often including a presentation, followed by a values conversation with members of the wider GWI community.

• Don’t be alarmed if there are other stages in the process, it’s all part of the plan for some of our roles.
  
  
  

What exactly is GWI?

Since launching in 2009 we’ve grown at a healthy pace, and to maintain this growth we need more extraordinary people. Hence this ad. Hence you.

What’s in it for me?

You’ll do the sort of work that got you excited about your career in the first place - not as a cog in a machine, but as an individual whose contribution matters. So gigantic job satisfaction comes as standard, but it’s only part of the package. You’ll also get:

Tons of days off: 25 days annual leave | Xmas office closures

More than a great salary: Health cash plan | 4% pension plan matching

Great work-life balance: Flexitime | early Friday finishes | Work-from-anywhere options

Family-focused flexibility: Carer days | Enhanced parental leave | Health cash plan for your family

A commitment to YOU: Accredited learning programs | A commitment to mental and physical health | Reward and recognition programs | Career development opportunities

A commitment to the community: DE&I committee | Volunteer options | 100% donation matching | Payroll giving options

Put all that together and GWI is the friendliest, most fulfilling place any of us has ever worked.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We take DE&I seriously. Not only is it obviously the right thing to do, it’s also the bedrock of our value of show respect and at the heart of our company culture.

We’re a global data business, so it’s essential our data reflects the global reality. Putting diversity into practice like this literally makes our business stronger. That’s why we strive to make our offices - and our teams - as diverse as our data. Want to know more? Take a look at our Life page on LinkedIn to learn more about our DE&I initiatives.
