Accounts Assistant – Syston, Leicester – £28,000 - £30,000 – Full-time, Permanent

Are you an experienced Accounts Assistant with a passion for problem-solving? Do you enjoy investigating issues, ensuring accuracy, and making a real impact? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!
This Accounts Assistant role is sales ledger-leaning, but it is a far cry from your typical credit control or accounts receivable job. You will work cross-functionally to understand outstanding payments; you’ll be focused on why payments haven’t been received, ensuring customers have the correct invoices, and working to resolve discrepancies efficiently, as well as analysing the sales ledger. You'll be a key part of the accounts function and vital to maintaining smooth financial operations and ensuring the business's cash flow.

Supportive & experienced team – Work alongside finance professionals who will help you grow and succeed.
Hybrid working – Enjoy a mix of office and home-based work for better work-life balance.
On-site parking – No need to worry about the daily commute!
A great place to work – A fast-paced, fun environment where people truly care about making a difference.
Purpose-driven – Join an organisation that gives back, improving outcomes for children.
Exciting growth – With a new CEO and private equity backing, there’s plenty of opportunity ahead.

What we’re looking for:

Problem-solving mindset – You enjoy investigating discrepancies and getting to the root of issues.
Process-driven – Ensuring invoices are correct and payments are made on time.
Experience in finance, credit control, accounts receivable, or sales ledger is a plus.
