Bookkeeper

Location: Ware
Salary: £32,000 - £35,000
Working Pattern: Flexible working hours

About the Company

We are working with a rapidly growing business to recruit a Bookkeeper into a newly created position within their finance team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an ambitious and expanding business, where you will play a key role in supporting the day-to-day finance function. The company is looking to bring more of its month-end processes in-house, creating an opportunity for someone to take ownership of core transactional finance duties while supporting the wider finance team.

Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, you will help ensure the smooth running of the finance function, allowing the team to focus on process improvements, management accounting and supporting the company's continued growth.

The Role

As Bookkeeper, you will be responsible for a variety of transactional finance duties, including:

  • Managing multi-currency payment runs three times per week.
  • Posting bank transactions and maintaining accurate financial records.
  • Processing and posting supplier invoices.
  • Responding to supplier finance queries in a professional and timely manner.
  • Reconciling supplier accounts and investigating discrepancies.
  • Monitoring aged debtors and following up on outstanding payments.
  • Assisting with annual audit preparation and sample testing.
  • Supporting the transition of month-end activities in-house.
  • Contributing to the efficient running of the finance function and identifying opportunities to improve processes.

About You

We are looking for a motivated and organised finance professional who is keen to develop their skills and progress within a growing business.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • A minimum of 1–2 years' experience in a finance or accounts-based role.
  • AAT Level 3 or 4, part-qualified accounting status, or a degree in Accounting or a related discipline.
  • Strong attention to detail and good organisational skills.
  • The ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines.
  • Good communication skills, with the confidence to liaise with suppliers and internal stakeholders.
  • A proactive approach to problem-solving and a willingness to learn.

Experience with Sage 50, Xero, Excel and POS or stock management systems would be advantageous, although not essential.

Exposure to invoice financing would also be beneficial but is not required.

What's on Offer?

  • A newly created position offering the opportunity to make a real impact.
  • Clear opportunities for career progression as the business continues to grow.
  • The chance to take ownership of key finance processes and develop your technical accounting skills.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • 20 days' annual leave.
  • 3% pension contribution.
  • The opportunity to work closely with and learn directly from the Head of Finance.
