Temporary Purchase Ledger Clerk

Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00am 5:00pm (30-minute lunch break)

Môrwell Talent Solutions is recruiting for an experienced Temporary Purchase Ledger Clerk to join a busy finance team based in Newport. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys high-volume processing work and can quickly get up to speed in a fast-paced environment.

The role has arisen due to a backlog of invoices following a recent upgrade from Sage 50 to Sage 200, so previous experience with Sage systems would be highly advantageous but is not essential.

This is a fully office-based position and, due to the client s location, being a driver with access to your own transport would be beneficial.

Key Responsibilities will include -

  • Processing a high volume of purchase ledger invoices
  • Accurate coding and matching of invoices
  • Assisting with clearing a backlog following a systems upgrade
  • Maintaining strong levels of accuracy and attention to detail
  • Supporting the wider finance team with ad hoc finance duties as required
  • Ensuring supplier accounts are maintained correctly and efficiently

The Ideal Candidate -

  • Previous experience within purchase ledger/accounts payable
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Comfortable working through large volumes of data and invoices
  • Experience using Sage 50 and/or Sage 200 preferred
  • Able to work independently and manage workload effectively
  • Available to start immediately

This is a great opportunity for an experienced finance professional looking for an immediate temporary assignment with a supportive and busy team environment.

If this sounds like the right role for you, please contact Môrwell Talent Solutions ASAP!
