Purchase Ledger Clerk

If you prefer your purchase ledger work to be predictable, structured and free from unnecessary chaos, this contract might suit you down to the ground.

It's an initial 6 month stint with an opportunity to extend, at a Bradford based business that needs someone who can keep their purchase ledger wheels turning without fuss. And because you'll be stepping into a functioning team, you get the benefit of a proper handover rather than the usual contract cold start.

Here's the bit you actually care about. It pays £27k, it's stable, and you get the chance to drop into a friendly finance team where your purchase ledger skills will actually make a difference rather than just keep a spreadsheet warm. If you're looking for something to carry you through the next few months with minimal drama, read on.

What you'll be doing

• Processing high volumes of invoices quickly and accurately.
• Matching, batching and coding everything that lands in your queue.
• Handling supplier queries in a way that keeps relationships intact.
• Reconciling supplier statements and spotting issues before they snowball.
• Supporting month end with clean, reliable purchase ledger data.
• Jumping in where needed across the wider transactional finance team.

What you'll need

• Solid experience working in a purchase ledger environment.
• Confidence dealing with suppliers and chasing information where needed.
• Accuracy in your work, even when the pace picks up.
• A calm, organised approach to handling volume.
• Experience with accounting systems and Excel.
• The ability to start quickly and slot into an established team.

What's on offer

• £27k salary for the 6 month contract, with opportunity to extend.
• A straightforward onboarding and a supportive team.
• A role that values efficiency over theatrics.
• The chance to keep developing your purchase ledger experience.
• A business that sees contractors as part of the team, not a temporary inconvenience.
