We’re working closely with a great business based in Surrey to recruit a permanent Accounts Payable Specialist.

This isn’t a role where invoices trickle in. You’ll be the go-to person managing the full Accounts Payable process, handling high volume with real ownership over accuracy, queries, and the reconciliation process end to end.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Processing high volumes of purchase invoices accurately and efficiently.
  • Matching invoices, resolving discrepancies and investigating queries.
  • Maintaining supplier accounts and building positive working relationships.
  • Preparing reconciliations and supporting payment runs.
  • Assisting with month-end activities, including accruals and reporting.
  • Supporting the wider finance team with process improvements and ad hoc projects.
  • Contributing to ongoing systems and process enhancements.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has previous Accounts Payable or Purchase Ledger experience.
  • Is comfortable working with high volumes while maintaining excellent attention to detail.
  • Has strong Excel skills and is confident working with finance systems.
  • Enjoys investigating and resolving queries.
  • Takes ownership of their work and has a proactive approach to improving processes.
  • Works well both independently and as part of a collaborative finance team.

In return, you’ll join a well-established business that offers a supportive working environment, competitive benefits and the opportunity to make a real impact within the finance function.
