Purchase Ledger Clerk

Posted by Palatine Talent Ltd.

We are proud to be partnering with one of the UK's leading construction businesses - a business with a great product, strong values, and a genuine commitment to career progression. As a direct result of continued growth, we are now on the lookout for a talented Purchase Ledger Clerk to become part of a finance team that keeps the engine running behind the scenes of some of the country's most impressive developments.

You'll be responsible for processing and managing the day-to-day purchase ledger function. From invoice matching to month-end reconciliations, your attention to detail and ability to stay organised will help ensure smooth financial operations across the business.

Reporting to a friendly, experienced and supportive Finance Manager, your responsibilities will include:

  • Scanning and registering invoices
  • Coding invoices to cost and nominal ledgers
  • Matching invoices with orders and delivery tickets
  • Conducting price checks and obtaining approvals
  • Handling month-end cheque runs and issuing cheques
  • Performing supplier statement reconciliations
  • Responding to supplier queries via phone, email and fax
  • Liaising with internal teams across all departments
  • General filing and finance admin support
  • Supporting subcontract ledger tasks (a bonus if you've done this before!)
  • Assisting with HMRC month-end returns

You will ideally have:

  • Experience in a high-volume purchase ledger role
  • Familiarity with MS Excel
  • A strong communicator, both with internal teams and suppliers
  • Proactive, organised, and able to manage deadlines

This is more than just a job in finance - it's an opportunity to join a company with strong values, supportive leadership, and a proud history of growth and excellence. My client offers a competitive base salary, discretionary bonus and 26 days annual leave (with options to buy/sell additional day) plus bank holidays.
