About the Role
We are looking to recruit a full-time Purchase Ledger Clerk to join our fast-paced transactional Finance team.
This role offers a hybrid working arrangement, with Monday to Thursday based in the office and Friday working from home.
You’ll play an important role in providing an excellent financial transaction processing service, with responsibility for a range of purchase ledger and payment activities. This will include processing invoices and expenses, preparing supplier payment runs, reconciling supplier statements and investigating any discrepancies.
You’ll also respond to queries from suppliers and colleagues across PDSA, so providing a helpful and efficient service alongside excellent attention to detail will be key.
About You
Ideally, you’ll have previous experience working within a Purchase Ledger or similar accounts environment and be comfortable managing a busy and varied workload.
