Accounts Payable Assistant – 6 Month FTC
£25,000 – £26,000 | North Bristol
Are you immediately available or coming to the end of a contract? I’m currently working with a well-respected, fast-moving business in North Bristol who need an experienced Accounts Payable Assistant to support them through a busy period.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a friendly, supportive finance team and takes pride in keeping things accurate and on track. If you’re someone who likes to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in — this one’s for you.
What’s the role?
You’ll be joining a collaborative, down-to-earth finance team, where you’ll play a key role in keeping the payables function running smoothly. Day to day, you’ll be:
- Processing high volumes of supplier invoices
- Managing the AP inbox and resolving queries promptly
- Completing supplier statement reconciliations
- Supporting weekly and monthly payment runs
- Assisting with month-end tasks and reporting where needed
You’ll be trusted to manage your own workload and encouraged to bring ideas to the table — even though it’s a contract, your contribution will be valued from day one.
Who are we looking for?
Someone with solid accounts payable experience, strong attention to detail, and a proactive mindset. You’ll need to be comfortable picking things up quickly and confident working in a fast-paced environment.
Experience with large finance systems is helpful, but not essential. Most important is the attitude — we’re after someone who’s reliable, switched-on, and a real team player.
Why this role?
- Hybrid working (after initial training)
- Supportive team with hands-on training
- Great company culture with a down-to-earth, friendly feel
- A strong name on your CV — and the potential for longer-term opportunities if it’s a good fit
This role will move quickly — so if you're available to start within the next couple of weeks and want to get stuck into a hands-on finance role with a great team, let’s have a chat. If this sounds please email me on Ibrahim.Mashuk@element-recruitment.co.uk.
