Job description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, organised and diligent Accounts Payable Assistant to join the finance team of a well-established property development business based in London. This is a varied role, ideal for someone who enjoys working in a busy, fast-paced finance function and wants to take ownership of a broad accounts payable remit.

This is a full-time open ended contract position, working four days per week from the London office. My client expects the role to be between 1-3 months.

Key responsibilities

  • Receive invoices directly from suppliers or internally, reviewing for accuracy and reverting to suppliers as necessary to confirm supplier details, bank information and CIS status.
  • Manage the centralised invoicing process using procurement systems, Excel and Adobe Sign.
  • Deal with any queries regarding invoices to enable efficient processing against the correct company and cost code/allocation.
  • Review invoice approval statuses and engage with responsible individuals where approvals are outstanding, ensuring appropriate communication is made to suppliers where non-payment issues arise.
  • Proactively follow up with suppliers where final VAT invoices, credit notes or account reconciliations are required.
  • Register and track direct debits as appropriate.
  • Compile payment runs on a company-by-company basis, checking that invoices are approved, bank details are present and sufficient funds are available.
  • Ensure all payments are approved, following up and re-presenting for approval where necessary, and sending remittances to suppliers.
  • Maintain the accounts receivable tracker.
  • Continuously develop your understanding of key processes across the team to build resilience within the finance function.
  • Apply your technical knowledge to support the wider accounting team with queries, data entry, bank reconciliations and period-end accounting adjustments.

What we're looking for

  • At least 1 year of accounts payable experience.
  • Demonstrable knowledge and understanding of accounting.
  • Studying towards AAT / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent.
  • Experience from a property background is preferred.
  • Strong Excel skills.
