Part-Time Accounts Assistant – £30,000 FTE

Permanent | Part-Time – Up to 30 Hours Per Week | Fully Office Based

Macildowie Recruitment is currently working exclusively with a well-established, family-owned business that is looking to recruit an experienced Part-Time Accounts Assistant to join its small, friendly finance team.

Following a recent business acquisition, the team has seen an increase in workload and is looking for someone who can take ownership of the day-to-day transactional finance responsibilities.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys a varied, hands-on finance role and is looking for part-time hours with a good level of flexibility.

The Role

Working closely with the existing finance team, you'll be responsible for managing the transactional finance processes for a recently acquired part of the business.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Processing and posting sales and purchase invoices.

• Allocating customer payments and bank receipts.

• Completing bank reconciliations.

• Reconciling sales and purchase ledgers.

• Creating and maintaining customer accounts.

• Producing customer statements and resolving account queries.

• Processing supplier payments and telephone payments.

• Managing invoices and payments relating to online sales.

• Supporting with foreign currency transactions and journals.

• Assisting with wider finance duties as required.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who has a solid background in transactional finance and is confident managing their own workload.

Ideally, you'll have:

• Previous experience in an Accounts Assistant, Finance Assistant or similar role.

• Good working knowledge of both purchase ledger and sales ledger.

• Hands-on experience with bank reconciliations, invoice processing and payment allocations.

• Strong attention to detail and good organisational skills.

• The confidence to work independently while being part of a small team.

• A flexible approach and willingness to get involved in different areas of finance.

Experience using Sage X3 would be beneficial but isn't essential, as full systems training will be provided.

What's on Offer?

• £30,000 full-time equivalent salary, pro rata for part-time hours.

• Permanent position offering up to 30 hours per week.

• Flexible working arrangements.

• Early finish every Friday.

• Supportive, close-knit finance team.

• Full induction and hands-on systems training.

• Opportunity to take ownership of your role and develop your responsibilities over time.
