- Request receipt of supplier statements and reconcile these to ensure ledgers are accurate
- Ensure accounts payable and company financial obligations are met, and financial controls/processes adhere to company policies
- Manage the development, documentation and maintenance of transactional processes
- Identify process improvements, helping strengthen the control environment and increase efficiency
- Be an enthusiastic advocate of change, embracing it as the company continues to grow and expand

About you...:
As a Purchase Ledger Assistant you will have superb communication skills whilst dealing with internal and internal stake holders, both sensitively and professionally. You will be confident, articulate and passionate, oozing enthusiasm.

As our business grows you will need to be adaptable and keen to identify opportunities for improvements. You will also need
- Strong transactional accounting knowledge
- Proven experience within a fast-paced finance function
- Excellent IT skills
- High attention to detail, well organised and process driven
- Experience of manual invoice processing is preferred

At Cooper Parry, team really is everything. We would be no where without our team, so you need to have a “Play All In” attitude while you not only focus on your own development but that of the team around you as well. We truly want to support each other.
