About the Role

As a Junior Account Technician, you will receive hands-on training and support to develop your finance skills and gain practical experience in a busy accounts department. You will learn a variety of daily, weekly, and monthly finance tasks, including purchase ledger management, processing bank receipts, communicating with suppliers and various other financial office duties. This role is designed to provide a structured learning path, equipping you with the knowledge and confidence to build a strong foundation in finance.

With training and guidance, you will:

• Process bank receipts and learn how to reconcile them against customer remittance advice
• Input non-job-related purchase invoices with increasing accuracy and efficiency
• Download and post daily bank statements, ensuring correct recording of direct debits and standing orders
• Transfer and reconcile purchase ledger data, developing an understanding of financial accuracy and reporting
• Resolve purchase ledger queries by working closely with suppliers and bodyshop locations
• Issue cheques under supervision, following authorisation by the Head of Finance
• Manage and reconcile petty cash transactions, gaining confidence in handling financial records
• Communicate with suppliers via phone and email, improving your professional interaction skills
• Provide general administrative support within the accounts office, contributing to the smooth running of the department

About You

We are looking for an enthusiastic individual with a strong willingness to learn and develop a career in finance. You don't need extensive experience—just a proactive attitude, a keen eye for detail, and the drive to grow within the role. You will:

• Be eager to build your knowledge of finance and accounting
• Have a positive, can-do attitude and enjoy problem-solving
• Be confident in dealing with people at all levels and willing to ask questions
• Have strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise tasks effectively
• Be committed to accuracy and attention to detail as you develop your financial expertise
• Possess strong IT skills, including proficiency in the full Office 365 suite

What We Look For

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office; experience with Sage is preferred but not essential
• Excellent organisational and administrative skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Highly numerate with strong analytical skills
• Strong communication skills, both with customers and colleagues
• 1-2 years of bookkeeping experience would be an advantage
• A-Levels or equivalent would be advantageous
