Job content

My locally based client with a busy finance office are on the hunt for an experience Finance Assistant to work for them on a full time basis.
This is an office-based role with zero micromanagement, so you need to be self-sufficient and driven person to conduct a busy and sometimes chaotic day to day for the Finance Manager and wider operations team.

JOB DESCRIPTION

Based within the finance team you will oversee the day-to-day role of the finance function and support the finance team.
This will include the management of the subcontractor ledger and the accounts payable ledger including the reconciliation of the statements and ensuring the ledgers are kept up to date to ensure correct finance reporting.
The posting of the bank and credit card transactions will be completed daily to ensure a speedy reconciliation of the accounts and raise any queries in relation to unusual activity.
You will assist your line manager in making informed decisions that will be discussed at the weekly management meeting.

RESPONSBILITIES

  • Maintain the day-to-day transactions of the finance department.
  • Post the subcontractor transactions (cross hires and subcontractor labour) after checking the costs have been recovered against the relevant sales invoices.
  • Post the accounts payable transactions to the relevant supplier ledgers.
  • Raise any queries with suppliers in relation to discrepancies between PO value and actual invoice value and chase up any outstanding credit notes required.
  • Post the daily banking and credit card transactions, ensuring all receipts have been received to ensure the correct VAT treatment has been completed.
  • Monitor the ‘disputed’ items and get issues resolved as soon as possible.
  • Ensure Sage is updated each day so as not to delay the weekly creditor payment run.
  • Liaise with your line manager in the agreement of contra entries between the subcontractor ledgers.
  • Complete statement reconciliations to ensure no invoices/costs have been missed in the accounts.
  • Ensure all paperwork is scanned and filed correctly to aid any supplier queries that may arise around payment.
  • Cover the accounts receivable function as and when needed.
  • Cover the production of wages and salaries as and when needed.

In return:

  • Salary range is 25-28k based on 40 hours.
  • Hours are 40 per week ideally – start and finish times can be agreed with any successful candidate.
  • No real perks – the usual pension arrangements, 20 days + bank hols and Christmas shut down (this year the accounts office is closing Thursday end of the day 21/12/23) but we do have ‘Treat Fridays’.
