Purchase Ledger Assistant

Most adverts for a Purchase Ledger Assistant sounds like a copy-pasted a checklist from HR and hoped for the best.

This isn't one of those.

This is for a Purchase Ledger Assistant who actually wants to own their role, not just follow a process map someone drew up five years ago and never looked at again.

The company's growing fast. Stuff's changing. They need someone who knows their way around Accounts Payable and can keep things ticking while also spotting ways to make it better. You'll be part of the Fund Treasury Team, but no, that doesn't mean you'll be buried in spreadsheets all day with zero say in how things are run.

You'll have space to think, fix stuff, and-get this-be trusted to do your job.

What You'll Actually Be Doing (Because "No Two Days Are the Same" is Lazy Copy):

• Running AP like a boss - End-to-end. No micromanaging. No endless approvals. Just get it done.
• Getting invoices right - Validate, allocate, and make sure the auditors would be proud.
• Owning chargebacks and recharges - If you don't know what those are, this probably isn't for you.
• Solving problems - Talk to vendors, work with the treasury team, stop small issues becoming big ones.
• Keeping the paperwork clean - Compliance isn't optional.
• Actually adding value - Help with reporting, bring ideas, support audits. Be useful.

You, Ideally:

• Know your AP from your elbow.
• Understand how funds work. Chargebacks and recharges don't make you sweat.
• ERP systems, Excel, invoice platforms-none of it fazes you.
• You're detail-focused but still know what matters.
• Can handle pressure without making it everyone else's problem.

Why Bother?

Because this company actually supports its people. They're growing, but not at the expense of your sanity. No pointless meetings, no layers of nonsense. Just solid work, decent people, and a manager who won't breathe down your neck.

If that sounds better than your current gig, maybe it's time to have a chat.
