Not all purchase ledger roles are created equal. Some are about keying in invoices all day without a second thought. This one's about making sure everything adds up - and spotting the problems before they become bigger headaches.
We're looking for someone who knows how purchase ledgers should run smoothly and enjoys digging into the details when they don't. If you're the type of person who takes ownership, asks the right questions, and makes sure suppliers get paid correctly and on time, you'll fit right in.
What you'll be doing:
* Matching and processing purchase orders, invoices, and goods receipts (3-way matching).
* Investigating and resolving queries with suppliers and internal teams.
* Reconciling supplier accounts and keeping records accurate.
* Entering invoices into accounting systems, including both PO and non-PO invoices.
* Monitoring the purchase ledger mailbox and responding to queries.
* Circulating invoices for approval and coding.
* Supporting month-end activities such as accruals and reconciliations.
What you'll need:
* Previous purchase ledger/accounts payable experience.
* SAP experience would be an advantage, but it's not essential.
* Background in manufacturing or a similar environment (preferred).
* Strong Excel skills and great attention to detail.
* Communication skills to deal with suppliers, buyers, and colleagues at all levels.
* Ability to manage deadlines and stay organised when things get busy.
What's on offer:
* £28,000-£32,000 depending on experience.
* 30 days holiday (plus bank holidays).
* Private medical cover.
* A strong pension scheme.
If you're looking for a purchase ledger role where accuracy, problem-solving, and teamwork matter just as much as processing, this could be a great next step.
