SportPursuit is looking for a dynamic and friendly individual to join our Accounts Payable team. As a quick learner with a drive to keep improving, you will be dealing with high volumes of complex invoices, using your analytical skills to track down differences between the stock we receive and the stock we’re billed for. You’ll then work closely with your colleagues and supplier contacts to resolve those issues, successfully paying the invoices and paving the way for great relationships with our suppliers. This role is UK based, remote-first and suits someone who is genuinely interested in getting stuck in!
Key responsibilities in this role include reviewing and approving invoices, managing complex queries using Excel, liaising with people in the finance team, wider company and suppliers to problem solve invoice queries when they arise, and supporting the finance team to ensure the wider team achieves departmental objectives. You will also take responsibility for more complex / ad hoc areas of the Accounts Payable team function.
To be successful in this role, you must have a commitment to producing high quality outputs within strict deadlines, an organised and methodical approach, strong analytical skills, strong English written and verbal communication skills, 1-2 years prior experience in an Accounts Payable function, and great team working skills. Experience of using Excel and a desire to learn new skills and develop existing skills for a career in Finance are nice to have but not essential.
Benefits of working with us include a friendly and dynamic working environment with a Core Hours working pattern, 25 days of holiday a year with the opportunity to purchase an additional 5 days extra, the ability to work anywhere in the world for up to 30 working days a year, a workplace pension, a Learning and Development budget available to all employees, staff discount for access to great quality kit, Lunch & Learn sessions, and a social budget which grows every time we hit budget. We also offer a hybrid working model where we are mostly remote, but when you're in the office we'll have lots of free food and drink.
