Job description

We are working exclusively with a well-established, family-run business based in Downham Market that is currently going through an exciting period of growth. With a proud history of involvement in iconic UK projects, including The Shard in Central London - this is an opportunity to become part of a business with both legacy and ambition.

As an Accounts Assistant, you'll play a vital role in supporting the finance department with daily operations. Your responsibilities will span across invoice processing, reconciliation, expense handling, general ledger updates, and financial administration. This is an ideal position for someone with strong organisational, time management, and communication skills, looking for a role that offers stability and the potential for career development.

Key responsibilities include processing supplier invoices, matching to delivery notes and obtaining approvals, reconciling supplier statements and resolving discrepancies, handling employee expenses and credit card transactions, preparing payments, and ensuring accurate ledger postings. You'll also support month-end reconciliations, track project costs, manage records, and assist with the accounts and admin inbox.

Essential requirements include strong Microsoft Excel skills, attention to detail, excellent communication abilities, and the capacity to work under pressure while maintaining accuracy. You should be a self-starter with a hands-on attitude and a strong sense of teamwork. You must have a minimum of 12 months' experience in a similar role to be considered.

This opportunity is initially offered on a full-time basis, working Monday to Friday, 8am-5pm (42.5 hours per week), with flexibility if required on the start and finish times. However, if you are searching for part-time reduced hours, your application will be considered. This role is 100% office-based. The salary on offer is between £27,000-£32,000 per annum plus benefits.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing, respected company where your contributions will be valued and your career can progress. The team offers a supportive environment with varied work and real potential for development.

Apply now to be considered.
