Accounts Assistant – Wincanton – Full time – Permanent – Excellent Development Opportunities

Trial Balance Consulting are pleased to be working exclusively with a well-established and well organised business to recruit an Accounts Assistant to join their finance team. This role will focus on purchase ledger and sales ledger activity and would suit someone who enjoys a busy, detail driven position within a structured finance environment.

This is a high-volume role and will suit someone who is comfortable working accurately and methodically while dealing with a wide range of internal and external queries. The position would be ideal for someone looking to build on the foundations of their accounting career, or equally someone seeking a stable, well-balanced role within a well-run and established business.

Purchase ledger responsibilities will include:

• Processing a high volume of supplier invoices each month, ensuring accurate coding and posting
• Dealing with invoice queries directly with suppliers and internal colleagues
• Confirming approvals for price or quantity differences and attaching supporting documentation
• Completing supplier statement reconciliations and resolving discrepancies
• Producing and monitoring aged creditor reports

Sales ledger responsibilities will include:

• Chasing overdue invoices and providing copy invoices or supporting documentation where required
• Liaising with customers and internal teams to resolve queries promptly
• Allocating daily customer receipts
• Producing and issuing monthly customer statements

We’re looking for someone with strong data entry skills, excellent attention to detail, and the confidence to communicate clearly with suppliers, customers, and colleagues. A basic understanding of double entry bookkeeping would be beneficial, though not essential, alongside a positive and professional approach to working as part of a team.

This is a great opportunity to join a supportive finance function within a well organised organisation, offering a stable role with scope to learn, develop, and enjoy working as part of a friendly team.
