Purchase Ledger Clerk

East Leeds | Up to £29,000 DOE + Annual Bonus | Office-Based

If you're someone who genuinely enjoys Accounts Payable, takes pride in getting the detail right and likes working in a team where everyone pulls together, this could be a great fit.

I'm working with a growing business that's looking to strengthen its Purchase Ledger team with someone who enjoys the technical side of AP just as much as the day-to-day relationships that come with it. The team has a fantastic reputation internally for being supportive, approachable and collaborative, making it an enjoyable environment to come to work each day.

The Opportunity

This is a busy, end-to-end Purchase Ledger role where accuracy really matters.

You'll be responsible for processing a high volume of invoices, matching them against purchase orders at line level and resolving any discrepancies before payments are made. It's a role that requires someone who enjoys working with detail and understands the importance of getting things right first time.

Whilst you'll have ownership of your own workload, you'll also be joining a close-knit team who work together, support one another and genuinely enjoy what they do.

For someone who sees Purchase Ledger as a career rather than just a stepping stone, there are genuine opportunities to progress within the Purchase Ledger department as the business continues to grow.

• Investigating and resolving invoice discrepancies

• Has previous Purchase Ledger experience


• Is confident working with purchase orders and invoice matching


• Has excellent attention to detail and takes pride in producing accurate work


• Is passionate about Accounts Payable and enjoys building a career within this area of finance


• Enjoys working in a fast-paced environment


• Has a positive attitude and enjoys being part of a collaborative team

The environment

You'll be joining a friendly, welcoming Purchase Ledger team where collaboration is at the heart of everything they do.

It's a sociable environment where colleagues support one another, share knowledge and celebrate success together. The business values loyalty and is committed to developing its people, offering genuine opportunities to progress your career within the Purchase Ledger function over time.
