Accounts Payable Assistant (Part-time) (J6931) Letchworth Garden City, England
| Salary: | GBP28000 - GBP32000 per annum + (Pro-rata Salary) |
Are you a detail-driven finance professional with a knack for project accounting and a love for getting things right the first time? If you're looking for a role where your skills will be valued and your growth supported, my client (a high-end tech business based in Letchworth) has an exciting opportunity for you.
This is a part-time, office-based role, working up to 24 hours per week over 4 days including Friday and is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment and enjoys working across departments to keep financial operations running smoothly.
Key responsibilities:
- Processing supplier invoices and credit notes in Sage 50, across multiple currencies
- Matching purchase orders and invoices for approval and payment
- Reconciling supplier statements and resolving discrepancies
- Managing credit card transactions and employee expense claims
- Allocating costs to projects and codes – project accounting is central to this role
- Preparing weekly and monthly payment runs (BACS and international)
- Supporting month-end close activities, including accruals and reporting
- Liaising with suppliers and internal teams to keep everything on track
Previous experience should include:
- Proven experience in Accounts Payable
- Strong working knowledge of Sage 50 and Excel
- Familiarity with job costing and project-based accounting
- A keen eye for detail and a proactive mindset
- Great communication skills and a collaborative spirit
- Understanding of VAT rules and HMRC compliance
It would also be great if you had:
- AAT qualification (or working towards it)
- Experience in construction, engineering, or project-led industries
- Used expense management systems like Expensify or Webexpenses
Why This Role Stands Out
- Salary of £28,000–£32,000 (Pro-rata)
- Generous 25-day holiday allowance
- Part-time with hours to fit around your schedule and the business
- A chance to work on exciting, high-end tech projects
- A collaborative, inclusive culture that values your voice
- Supportive leadership and a team that genuinely cares
