We are currently recruiting for an experienced Purchase Ledger Clerk to join a friendly finance team within an established business based in Farnborough.
This is a hands-on, part-time temporary position and would be ideal for someone with recent Purchase Ledger / Accounts Payable experience who enjoys getting involved in the day-to-day transactional side of a finance function.
The successful candidate will be joining during a particularly busy period for the team as the business implements new accounting software. An immediate start is preferred, with the opportunity to complete a handover with the existing team member.
The assignment is initially expected to run until the end of December 2026, with the potential for further support to be required thereafter.
What you’ll be doing
- Processing, coding and posting purchase invoices
- Maintaining accurate Purchase Ledger records
- Matching invoices against purchase orders
- Checking and reconciling supplier statements
- Investigating invoice discrepancies and outstanding transactions
- Responding to supplier queries
- Preparing and supporting supplier payment runs
- Processing employee expenses
- Processing and reconciling company credit card transactions
- Completing general finance reconciliations
- Supporting some basic Credit Control activities when required
- Maintaining accurate financial records and resolving outstanding items
- Providing general transactional finance support to the wider team
- Supporting the finance team during the implementation of new accounting software
- Adapting to new systems and processes as they are introduced
What we’re looking for
We are particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have recent, hands-on experience within Purchase Ledger or Accounts Payable.
You’ll ideally have experience of:
- Processing purchase invoices
- Supplier statement reconciliations
- Supplier payment runs
- Resolving invoice and supplier queries
- Purchase order matching
- Credit card and expense processing
- General finance reconciliations
You’ll need to be accurate, organised and comfortable managing your own workload within a busy finance environment.
You should also be confident using accounting systems and able to pick up new processes quickly. Previous experience supporting an accounting system implementation or finance systems change would be beneficial, although this isn’t essential.
What’s on offer
- £15.00-£17.37 per hour inclusive of holiday pay
- Part-time hours
- Office-based position in Farnborough
- Temporary assignment until the end of December 2026
- Potential for the assignment to be extended if additional support is required

This role would particularly suit an experienced Purchase Ledger Clerk, Accounts Payable Assistant, Finance Assistant or Bookkeeper looking for a hands-on, part-time temporary position.
