This is a brilliant opportunity to join a well-established services business in Birmingham City Centre, just a short walk from Birmingham New Street.

- Processing invoices and payments across accounts payable and accounts receivable.
- Completing bank reconciliations and ad-hoc reconciliations.
- Supporting the credit controller with query resolution to ensure payments are collected.
- Allocating cash and resolving discrepancies.

- Some exposure to finance (6-12 months), such as a placement year, apprenticeship, or recent graduate experience.
- Strong attention to detail and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
- Excellent communication skills for liaising with suppliers and customers.
- Able to work independently and within a team.
