A strong UK law firm is looking to appoint a Purchase Ledger & Office Cashier to join its Brighton office.
This is a broad, hands-on finance role, ideally suited to someone with experience in a legal finance environment, although candidates from a professional services background with strong purchase ledger experience will also be considered.
The firm is open to either an experienced legal cashier with good exposure across the core cashiering areas, or someone with strong purchase ledger experience who is keen to develop further within a legal finance setting. Billing experience is not essential.
The role will include responsibility for purchase ledger processes, posting payments, office account reconciliations, direct debits and standing orders, bank charges, credit card postings and administration, Companies House invoices, panel invoices, referral fees, commission postings, breach reporting and assisting auditors with queries.
On the client side, the role will also involve supporting with e-chits, client payments during busy periods, charity transfers, interest payments, cheque registers, suspense account monitoring and the return of unclaimed funds.
The successful candidate will be organised, accurate and confident working with numbers, with strong attention to detail and the ability to support colleagues across a busy finance function. Prior legal cashiering experience would be highly beneficial, but the firm will also consider candidates from wider professional services finance backgrounds where there is strong purchase ledger experience.
This is a great opportunity to join a well-regarded UK law firm in a varied finance role, offering exposure across both office and client account work within a supportive Brighton-based team.
