Leighton Buzzard Immediate starts only

Think Accountnacy & Finance are working with a fast-moving business based in Leighton Buzzard who are looking to bring in an Accounts Assistant to support their finance team during a period of high workload and change.

This is a hands-on role in a fast paced office environment, ideal for someone who enjoys variety, can adapt quickly, and isn't fazed by a busy day-to-day.



This is a general Accounts Assistant position, with responsibility across both sales ledger and purchase ledger. The workload may flex between the two, so you'll need to be comfortable switching priorities and supporting where needed.

Key duties will include:

  • Sales ledger and purchase ledger processing

  • Raising and posting invoices

  • Processing supplier invoices and payments

  • Managing queries and reconciliations

  • Supporting the wider finance team with ad-hoc tasks

  • Assisting with backlog clearance and keeping processes moving



What they're looking for:

  • Previous experience in an Accounts Assistant / Finance Assistant role

  • Comfortable working across both sales and purchase ledger

  • Someone who can hit the ground running with minimal hand-holding

  • Organised, proactive and happy in a fast-paced office

  • A positive, team-focused attitude

This role would suit someone who enjoys being busy, and likes getting stuck in!

If you're available immediately (or at short notice) and looking for a role where no two days are the same, this could be a great fit.

Interested? Please get in touch for more details or to apply.
