The Accounts Administrator Role
This is a full-time role, working Monday–Friday, 9am-5pm, at our Gottlieb Packaging site in Trafford Park, Manchester. As our Accounts Administrator, you'll primarily be responsible for accurately producing sales invoices via Sage 50, after collating and checking sales orders and delivery notes.
We’re looking for someone who is organized, detail-oriented, and ready to develop their skills in accounts administration. With time and experience, you'll have opportunities to take on more complex responsibilities, including providing cover and support for our Accounts Manager during absences.
Please note, given our office location and the surrounding area's traffic, we would prefer candidates who live within approximately 5 miles of our site (postcode: M17 1SB) to ensure a manageable daily commute.
What you’ll do
* Accurately and promptly process sales, purchase, and invoicing documentation using both manual input and auto-entry.
* Set up accounts on SAGE.
* Respond to supplier and customer inquiries.
* Check and record a variety of administrative transactions.
* Reconcile credit card statements and daily transactions.
* Liaise with warehouse staff regarding paperwork and stock queries.
* Support the Accounts department in daily, monthly, and annual reporting processes.
* Work closely with the Accounts Manager and Buyer to ensure stock records on SAGE are always up to date.
* Answer calls as needed; take messages and orders when trained.
* Perform other ad-hoc office tasks as required.
What you’ll bring
We welcome applications from candidates with experience in sales and purchase ledger, accounting administration, and invoicing. The ideal Ledger Clerk will be organized, detail-oriented, and able to multitask effectively. They should have strong literacy and numeracy skills, with the ability to handle repetitive tasks without becoming disengaged. A solid understanding of IT operations is also required, particularly with SAGE LINE 50, MS Outlook, Excel, and Word.
We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, regardless of age, gender, disability, race, nationality, ethnicity, gender identity, religion, or sexual orientation. If you need any specific support or adjustments during the recruitment process, please email our recruitment team directly.
What you’ll get
From the start of your employment, you will be entitled to 23 days of paid holiday per year, plus bank holidays. We also offer a company pension, death in service insurance, free parking, and a competitive starting salary.
