As Finance Assistant, you will be responsible for raising sales invoices and credit notes, issuing client statements, and managing multi-invoicing for large clients with multiple divisions. You will ensure that invoicing aligns accurately with contractual agreements, working closely with internal teams and account managers to maintain smooth workflows.

You will also act as the key Finance contact for allocated clients, managing queries, investigating “on-account” payments, addressing suspended accounts, and supporting the wider Finance team with ad-hoc tasks as required.

  • Familiarity with finance systems such as Sage
  • Strong Excel and general IT skills
  • Excellent attention to detail and problem-solving ability
  • Confidence working through aged debt or backlogs
  • Strong communication skills and a professional client-facing manner
  • The ability to adapt in a dynamic and evolving environment

If you thrive in a structured yet fast-paced setting and enjoy taking ownership of your workload, this could be a great next step in your finance career.
