* Investigate statements, credit notes, discounts etc., identifying and implementing the correct actions to take.
* Match invoices with orders on the electronic ordering system in accordance with procedures and working practices where auto match has failed, investigating what has caused the auto match to fail.
* Register and input invoices, credit notes and payment requests into the accounts payable system in accordance with approved policies and procedures.
* Review invoices for payment, ensuring the VAT has been properly identified and reclaimed, the invoice has been correctly coded and authorised and is arithmetically correct.
* Receive and process manual payment request form in line with relevant policies and procedures.

Our ambition is to deliver excellent local and specialist services, to improve the health and wellbeing of our patients, and provide a vibrant place for staff to develop, innovate and build careers.
