What’s on offer
* Permanent, full-time role (37.5 hours per week)
* Hybrid working pattern (3 days office-based, 2 from home)
* Salary guide £28,000–£32,000 (dependent on experience)
* Supportive, inclusive culture with a strong emphasis on collaboration and development
We’re recruiting on behalf of a highly respected international professional services firm, recognised for operating at the top end of its specialist field. The organisation supports innovative, IP-rich businesses globally and is known for its collaborative culture, high standards, and inclusive values.
An opportunity has arisen for an Accounts Payable Clerk to join a supportive and well-established Finance team. This is a hands‑on, transactional role suited to someone who enjoys accuracy, structure, and working closely with colleagues across the business.
The role
Reporting into the Finance Operations Manager, you’ll play a key role in the day‑to‑day running of accounts payable and disbursement processes.
Key responsibilities include:
* Processing invoices and payment requests in line with internal authorisation procedures
* Posting overhead and disbursement invoices to accounting and practice management systems, ensuring correct coding, references and payment terms
* Processing bank and BACS payments and issuing remittance advices
* Matching payments to invoices and maintaining accurate financial records
* Bank and supplier account reconciliations
* Managing a shared finance inbox and responding to supplier queries
* Monitoring bank balances and managing petty cash
* Supporting audit activity and ad‑hoc finance tasks
* Chasing invoice approvals and ensuring deposit accounts are appropriately funded
About you
You’re likely to have:
* Practical experience in an accounts payable, accounts clerk, or similar finance role
* A detail‑focused, organised approach with a proactive mindset
* Strong communication skills and confidence dealing with internal teams and external suppliers
* The ability to manage deadlines in a busy, transactional environment
* Good IT skills and confidence working with finance systems
Experience within a professional services environment is beneficial, as is exposure to practice management systems (such as Inprotech), but neither is essential.
If you’re looking to build solid accounts payable experience within a high-quality, people‑focused organisation, we’d love to hear from you.
