This is a great opportunity for someone with a strong background in transactional finance who enjoys a varied, hands-on role and is confident managing both sales and purchase ledger processes. You'll be joining a friendly, hardworking team within a family-run business, where accuracy, organisation and a proactive approach are highly valued.

The successful candidate will be comfortable working independently, managing their workload and ensuring day-to-day finance processes run smoothly.

What we're looking for:

  • Previous experience in a sales ledger, purchase ledger or accounts assistant position.

  • Confident using Sage 50, with previous hands-on experience highly desirable.

  • Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy when processing financial transactions.

  • Good Excel skills and confidence working with accounting systems.

  • Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise tasks and manage deadlines.

  • A positive, flexible approach and willingness to get involved wherever needed.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced transactional finance professional looking for their next temporary assignment. The role would suit someone who can quickly get up to speed, take ownership of the ledgers and provide valuable support to an established finance function.

If you're available for temporary work and have experience across sales and purchase ledger, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today or contact NXTGEN Recruitment for further information.
