Are you a finance pro who loves the details and thrives on solving problems?
If you’ve got a head for numbers, a sharp eye for accuracy, and a passion for customer service, you might be just who we’re looking for. At PA Housing, we’re on the hunt for an Accounts Payable Officer to play a key role in keeping our finances running smoothly in our fast-paced, property-focused business. This isn’t just another finance role – it’s a chance to make a real impact, working with a friendly, supportive team where your work truly matters.
What’s in it for you….
In addition to the salary, we offer a number of benefits, including:
- High street discount schemes
- Health cash plans
- 26 days’ annual leave, increasing to 29 after three years, with the opportunity to buy more
- Flexible bank holidays – take them when it suits you
- Car leasing scheme
- Hybrid working – offering you the flexibility to thrive in your role. You'll have the opportunity to blend the best of both worlds, spending approximately two to three days per week in the office once settled in the role. This is flexible and depends on meeting cycles and board activity. We also offer an optional nine-day fortnight scheme, allowing you to compress your hours if it suits the role.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you’ll be doing…..
You’ll be the go-to person for managing supplier payments and purchase ledger processes. It’s a hands-on, varied role with lots of opportunity to take ownership. Here’s a snapshot:
- Process all purchase invoices and credit notes with speed and accuracy
- Manage authorised payments via BACS, CHAPS, and other automated methods
- Handle ad hoc payments and cheques where needed
- Review and reconcile supplier statements, keeping everything in balance
- Respond swiftly to correspondence around reminders, summons, bailiffs, and legal issues
- Maintain supplier accounts, set up new ones, and regularly review balances
- Resolve queries for both internal teams and external stakeholders
- Support with monthly and annual ledger close-down routines
- Be the system expert – supporting, training, and assisting users where needed
- Take on other duties to support the Accounts Payable and Income Manager
What we’re looking for:
You don’t need to tick every box, but we’d love to hear from you if you bring:
- Experience in accounts payable or a finance environment
- Familiarity with electronic purchase ordering and financial IT systems
- Awareness of transactions typical in a property-based business
- A solid understanding of financial controls and fraud risk
- A proactive attitude, great communication skills, and a team-player mindset
