Purchase Ledger Administrator, permanent, Pershore, Worcester, £26-28,000

Your new company

Hays is partnering with a well‑established and expanding organisation that is seeking an experienced Purchase Ledger Administrator to join its team based in Pershore.

Your new role

You will be joining a small, supportive finance team where you will take ownership of a broad range of transactional duties. Your responsibilities will include:
  • Accurately processing a high volume of purchase invoices using automated accounts payable software.
  • Managing and overseeing the full purchase order process.
  • Handling and resolving supplier queries and discrepancies via phone and email.
  • Preparing and executing bi‑weekly payment runs.
  • Reconciling supplier statements and ensuring supplier account records remain accurate and up to date.
  • Investigating invoice, pricing, and purchase order discrepancies in collaboration with internal departments.
  • Ensuring adherence to internal controls, policies, and accounting procedures.
  • Supporting weekly and month‑end tasks, including reporting activities.
  • Assisting with internal and external audits by preparing and providing required documentation.
  • Offering general support to the wider accounts team as needed.

What you'll need to succeed

To be successful in this role, you will have previous experience working within a purchase ledger function, ideally with exposure to processing high volumes of invoices.
You will be organised, methodical, and able to prioritise your workload effectively, with strong communication skills to support both internal colleagues and external suppliers.
Strong IT skills are essential, including proficiency in Excel. Experience with Sage is desirable but not essential.

What you'll get in return

You will be joining a dynamic, deadline-driven team where you’ll have the opportunity to develop your skills and progress your career within a supportive and collaborative environment.
The company offers:
  • Clear opportunities for progression and ongoing skill development.
  • A smart-casual dress code, promoting a comfortable and professional workplace.
