Professional Recruitment

Temporary Accounts Assistant required for a small, mission-driven charity who can hit the ground running and provide essential interim support during a period of systems change and high transactional volume.

The Role

You’ll be joining a busy finance function that has recently migrated from Xero to Sage and is implementing new processes across credit control, supplier invoicing, and integrated shop sales. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Transactional processing – clearing a large backlog and maintaining high-volume monthly activity
  • Credit control – supporting new systems and ensuring timely customer payments
  • Supplier invoice processing and maintaining accurate purchase ledger records
  • Reconciliations – particularly credit card reconciliations for a large volume of card users, plus support across multiple bank accounts
  • Keeping sales ledger and purchase ledger up to date
  • Acting as a systems-focused problem solver, helping refine and stabilise new workflows

What They’re Looking For

  • Someone confident working independently and able to hit the ground running
  • Strong reconciliation skills, especially on the credit card side
  • Experience with Xero is highly desirable
  • A practical, organised systems person who enjoys improving processes
  • Comfortable with high-volume transactional work

Contract & Working Pattern

  • 1 month initially with a strong chance of 3-6 months extension
  • Full-time: 9am-5pm, 30-minute lunch (37.5 hours per week)
  • Onsite

Ideal Candidate

You’re someone who enjoys rolling up your sleeves, sorting through complexity, and bringing order to busy finance operations. If you’re adaptable, detail-driven, and ready to make an immediate impact, this charity will value your expertise.
