Join our client’s finance team as an Accounts Payable Assistant, supporting their global operations through a fast-paced Shared Services environment.

The Role: We’re working with a leading organisation to recruit an experienced Accounts Payable Assistant. You’ll play a vital role in ensuring the smooth operation of the Procure to Pay (P2P) process, supporting both UK and international entities. Reporting to the AP Team Leader, you’ll be responsible for invoice processing, supplier payments, reconciliations and expense review.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Support the AP Team Leader in maintaining a high-performing Accounts Payable function aligned with group policies and financial controls.
  • Manage the Accounts Payable inbox: responding to queries and ensuring timely action.
  • Process supplier and contractor invoices accurately, ensuring correct PO matching and approvals.
  • Prepare AP-related General Ledger reconciliations.
  • Handle supplier payments via BACS, CHAPS, and international transfers.
  • Reconcile supplier statements, follow up on discrepancies and request missing documents as needed.
  • Review employee expense claims to ensure compliance with internal policies and local legislation.
  • Build and maintain strong working relationships with internal teams and external suppliers.
What You’ll Need:
  • At least 1 years’ experience in a busy P2P or Accounts Payable function.
  • Strong understanding of AP processes and internal controls.
  • High attention to detail and strong follow-up skills to resolve issues effectively.
  • Confident communicator with a collaborative mindset.
  • Experience with SAP, IFS, or XA (desirable but not essential).
  • Proficient in Excel (data entry, formatting, and basic formulas).
  • Able to manage workload independently and meet deadlines under pressure.
