Accounts Assistant - Temporary to Permanent Opportunity
Location: Near Avonmouth
Salary: Competitive hourly rate
Contract: Temporary (with potential to go permanent)

Morgan McKinley is delighted to be working with a long-established and well-regarded client based near Avonmouth. We're currently looking for an Accounts Assistant to join their small and friendly finance team. This is initially a temporary position to provide cover while they recruit permanently - but if you're looking for a long-term opportunity and prove to be a great fit, there's a strong chance this could become a permanent role.

What you'll be doing:
While your main focus will be on end-to-end Accounts Payable, this is a varied role where you'll also have the opportunity to support across other areas of finance, including:

  • Processing purchase invoices, matching, batching and coding

  • Preparing and processing payment runs

  • Supplier statement reconciliations

  • Handling queries and liaising with suppliers

  • Supporting with Accounts Receivable tasks as needed

  • Assisting with Credit Control

  • Getting involved in month-end activities

What we're looking for:

  • Someone who can start at short notice

  • Solid, hands-on experience with end-to-end Accounts Payable

  • Comfortable rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck in as part of a small team

  • A positive attitude and a flexible approach to work

If this sounds like a good fit for you - whether you're looking for temp work or a longer-term move - we'd love to hear from you.
