About The Role
We are currently recruiting for an Accounts Payroll Clerk to join our client, a leading oil and gas operator, as part of their dynamic and busy Finance team based in Norwich. This role offers an excellent opportunity for individuals with prior Accounts Payable experience to contribute to a vital function within a well-established organization. The successful candidate will primarily focus on supporting the Accounts Payable processes, ensuring the accurate and timely processing of invoices, credit notes, and supplier payments. This position requires someone who is confident working in a fast-paced environment, capable of managing high volumes of transactions, and comfortable liaising with internal teams and external suppliers. The role also involves collaborating with procurement, finance, and other departments to resolve invoice discrepancies, maintain strong supplier relationships, and contribute to continuous process improvements.
Qualifications
The ideal candidate will possess previous experience within Accounts Payable or a similar finance role, demonstrating a solid understanding of invoice processing and financial coding. Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, is essential, along with experience using SAP or comparable finance systems—training can be provided if necessary. Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, are crucial for effective correspondence with suppliers and internal teams. Attention to detail and accuracy are paramount, as is a good understanding of cost centers and financial coding procedures. The candidate should be able to work independently, demonstrate initiative, and collaborate effectively within a team. Flexibility, adaptability, and the ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment are also important attributes for success in this role.
Responsibilities
Joining our client’s team offers a range of benefits designed to support your professional growth and personal well-being. You will be part of a reputable organization within the oil and gas industry, working in a collaborative environment that values innovation and efficiency.
