  • Proven experience processing around 1,000 invoices per month
  • Strong accuracy, attention to detail and reconciliation skills
  • The ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment
  • Clear and professional communication skills
  • Experience with TechnologyOne or a similar finance system would be advantageous
