We are working with a well-regarded London law firm that is looking to hire an Accounts Payable Clerk to join its central finance team.
This is a full-time, permanent role within a busy and established finance function, supporting the wider business with supplier payments, staff expenses, disbursement payments, reconciliations and general purchase ledger work.
The role would suit someone with strong accounts payable experience who enjoys a detail-focused position in a professional services environment. Previous law firm experience would be ideal, although candidates from other professional services backgrounds will also be considered.
The successful candidate will be responsible for processing supplier invoices accurately and on time, coding invoices and expenses correctly, preparing payment runs, uploading payments to the banking system, reconciling supplier statements, maintaining purchase ledger records and supporting VAT compliance and internal finance controls.
You will be working closely with legal cashiers, finance managers and the wider central finance team, so strong communication skills, accuracy, and the ability to manage deadlines will be important.
The firm is looking for someone with at least three years' experience in an accounts payable role, strong attention to detail, good Excel skills and a confident understanding of VAT. Experience within a law firm or wider professional services environment would be particularly useful.
This is a good opportunity for someone looking to join a respected London law firm with a busy finance team, a supportive working environment and good quality internal systems and processes.
