I'm hiring for a Sales Ledger Assistant to join a growing, well-run business with a genuinely decent team and a finance function that actually works like a team.
This isn't a company drowning in red tape. You won't need 14 approvals to send an invoice. What they do need is someone switched-on, confident with credit control, and solid when it comes to ledger work and reporting.
If you're used to juggling incoming queries, chasing payments, and getting to the bottom of invoice issues without needing your manager to write the email for you - you'll do well here.
The day-to-day:
??Handling invoice queries and getting them sorted fast
??Posting invoices daily (via automated systems + occasional manual work)
??Allocating payments and taking them over the phone
??Pulling together weekly revenue reports for different departments
??Supporting the team with month-end when needed
??Bank reconciliations (you'll know what this involves if you've done it before)
??Liaising with non-finance teams and keeping things moving
What they're looking for:
??Experience in sales ledger and credit control
??Worked in a busy accounts/office environment
??Solid organisational skills - not someone who needs reminding twice
??Confident Excel user
??Sage 200 experience? Great. Not essential, though
??Willing to get stuck in with the wider finance team where needed
What you'll get in return:
??Hybrid working - 3 days in the office, 2 at home
??25 days holiday + bank holidays + up to 10 extra days off (yes, really)
??Matched pension scheme
??Discounted gym access
??Proper team culture - no nonsense, no egos, no micromanagement
??Support to grow if you want it - or just get your head down and do good work
This is ideal if you're:
? Tired of being stuck in a rigid finance team with no flexibility
? Looking for a role where you're trusted to do your job
? Happy balancing ledger work with people-facing credit control
