Accounts Payable Assistant

Bicester, Oxfordshire | Full Time | Permanent | Finance

Are You Ready to Bring Your Finance Skills to Something a Bit Different?

This isn’t your average accounts payable role. Imagine working at the heart of a fast-growing, innovative organisation that creates extraordinary experiences and world-class events — and being the person who helps make it all possible behind the scenes.

We’re a small, high-performing finance team looking for a switched-on Accounts Payable Assistant to join us at our Bicester base. If you’re organised, accurate, and thrive in a busy environment, we’d love to hear from you.

The Role

You’ll be a vital cog in our finance function — keeping the purchase ledger running smoothly, processing high volumes of invoices, and building great working relationships with suppliers and colleagues alike. Day to day, you can expect to:

  • Process and post a high volume of purchase invoices onto our accounting systems
  • Match invoices to purchase orders and goods received notes
  • Reconcile supplier statements and direct debit accounts
  • Manage supplier and internal queries promptly via phone and email
  • Maintain a clean, accurate purchase ledger
  • Support the wider finance team with ad-hoc tasks as needed

What You’ll Bring

  • 1–2 years’ experience in an Accounts Payable or similar finance role
  • Confident using Microsoft Excel and Word
  • Strong attention to detail, numeracy, and a methodical approach to your work
  • The ability to manage high volumes and deadlines without dropping the ball
  • A positive, resilient, can-do attitude — you don’t shy away from a challenge
  • Experience with Sage or similar system is a bonus, but not essential

What’s In It For You?

We genuinely invest in our people. You’ll join a supportive, fun, and hardworking team that celebrates success and helps each other grow.

  • Competitive salary
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Pension contribution
  • Life assurance
  • Employee wellbeing programme
  • Thorough training and genuine career development
