What We’re Looking For:
*
Minimum 2 years' experience in a purchase ledger or similar finance role
*
Confident with accounting software (Sage, SAP, or similar)
*
Strong numerical accuracy, fast and efficient data entry skills
*
Excellent attention to detail - you’ll be dealing with high invoice volumes

A positive, can-do attitude and ability to manage priorities under pressure
*
Strong communication skills for handling both internal and supplier queries
