About the role...
As part of a new project, we have some fantastic opportunities for the role of Accounts Payable Clerks. We have both 12 month contracts and permanent positions available. Whilst we are recruiting for Fixed Term Contracts- the team has expanded considerably, and the business has experienced continued success in the pandemic. A lot can happen in the future! These roles will sit in the newly created AP team in MLE, part of the wider finance team managing the accounts for our Mainland European clinics. The role will report to the regional team leader.
These are broad Accounts Payable roles, including processing invoices, generating payment proposals and reviewing and maintaining supplier ledgers, using supplier statement reconciliations to support wherever possible. The successful candidates will be fundamental in supporting the company's group strategy of Acquire, Build and Create. Accurate and timely payment of suppliers is vital to ensure the continued provision of goods and services, the integrity and reputation of the business and the management of working capital, as well as creating and maintaining strong and trusting relationships within the business, to support delivery of our strategy.
Overall, the Accounts Payable Clerks will be accountable for the accuracy and timeliness of the invoice postings and maintaining a high standard of ledger management, to SLA for their area, as well as ensuring suppler payment requests are accurate and made on time. There are complexities associated with managing Accounts Payable ledgers for non-UK entities relating to VAT, payment terms, language, and culture, all of which need to be considered region by region. Strong relationships with the in-country teams will need to be developed, maintaining the high levels of service delivery expected.
Key responsibilities:

You will be clear and confident in your communication skills, as well as have the ability to work quickly and independently to ensure high volumes of invoices are processed. You will need to have good attention to detail and able to work to a high degree of accuracy, with a proven ability to meet deadlines. We are looking someone who has a flexible approach to work, with a strong team ethic and has a proven ability to meet deadlines.
You will be a strong team player and ethic, a flexible approach to work and be able to adapt to the work. Previous experience in a similar role is also essential.
