This is a fantastic opportunity to join a rapidly growing manufacturing business based in Tamworth. Off the back of an exciting new partnership with a local retail brand, the business is expanding its presence and opening retail stores to showcase the products they manufacture - and as a result, the Accounts Payable team are busier than ever and need an extra pair of hands!
The role will initially focus on high-volume invoice processing (700+ per week), including checking for POs, supporting documents, and resolving any queries if something doesn't look quite right. You'll be heavily involved in reconciliation work and accuracy checks to make sure everything tallies before payment. This is a temporary role for around 6 months, but there's every chance it could open doors - the last person who joined in a similar capacity is now permanent in a more senior finance role! It's full-time in the office to begin with, then hybrid working will be available after a few weeks. Please note this role is not suitable for public transport users - you'll need to be a driver.
Key Responsibilities:
- Process a high volume of purchase invoices with accuracy and attention to detail
- Cross-check supporting documentation and ensure POs are valid and not exceeded
- Investigate and resolve any invoice queries or mismatches
- Perform reconciliations to ensure supplier balances and invoices are accurate
- Liaise with other departments and suppliers to chase missing information or resolve issues
- Contribute to process improvements and get involved in other areas of finance once core tasks are complete
Candidate Attributes and Skills:
- Previous experience in Accounts Payable or finance administration preferred
- Experience in data entry and working with large volumes of information considered
- Strong organisational skills with a meticulous approach to checking and reconciliations
- Able to work independently and manage your workload proactively
- Must be a driver due to office location
- Immediate availability or short notice required
Benefits:
- Opportunity to work in a fast-growing business during an exciting period of change
- Full training and support from a friendly finance team
- Hybrid working available after initial training period
- Strong potential for progression into other areas of finance if you hit the ground running
Summary:
A great chance to join a fast-growing manufacturer in Tamworth in a busy, hands-on Accounts Payable role - full time in the office to start, hybrid later, and excellent prospects for progression if you impress.
