Finance Assistant

We are recruiting a Finance Assistant to join a busy and supportive finance team based in Norwich.

This is a great opportunity for someone with Purchase Ledger or Accounts Payable experience who is looking for a varied role offering responsibility for their own supplier accounts and exposure to wider finance processes.

You’ll work closely with colleagues across finance, purchasing and operational teams, combining day-to-day invoice processing with reconciliations, subcontractor payments and query resolution.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Processing supplier invoices and credit notes.
• Matching invoices against purchase orders and goods received.
• Coding costs accurately to contracts and relevant cost codes.
• Managing your own portfolio of supplier accounts.
• Completing supplier statement reconciliations and investigating discrepancies.
• Resolving invoice and payment queries with suppliers and internal teams.
• Reviewing and processing subcontractor payment information.
• Preparing subcontractor payment runs.
• Ensuring invoices and payments meet internal controls and procedures.
• Supporting the wider finance team when required.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll already have experience within Purchase Ledger, Accounts Payable or a similar finance role and be comfortable working in a busy environment.

Ideally, you’ll have:

• Good experience processing invoices and reconciling supplier accounts.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
• The ability to organise and prioritise your own workload.
• Confidence investigating discrepancies and resolving queries.
• Good communication skills when dealing with suppliers and colleagues.
• Competence with Excel and accounting systems.
• A proactive approach and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Knowledge of CIS, VAT or subcontractor payments would be advantageous, as would experience within construction or another project-led environment.
