Accounts Assistant, Tyne and Wear

Looking for a finance role that offers genuine flexibility, stability and a supportive working environment?

With just one day per week required in the office, this opportunity offers a rare level of hybrid flexibility alongside the security of joining a well-established and growing organisation. You'll be joining a collaborative finance team where people are trusted to manage their workload, supported by a culture that focuses on outcomes rather than micromanagement.

The business has built an excellent reputation for creating a positive and down-to-earth working environment, making this an ideal opportunity for someone looking for a better work-life balance without compromising on career stability.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on, organised Accounts Assistant who enjoys working in a busy environment and wants to play a key role within a growing organisation.

This is a newly created position within the finance team, with a primary focus on the sales ledger.

You will support a busy finance function, ensuring income is accurately recorded, queries are resolved efficiently, and outstanding debt is managed effectively.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing the sales ledger, including chasing outstanding debt and monitoring aged balances
• Handling queries from customers and external stakeholders
• Performing reconciliations
• Supporting invoicing processes and maintaining accurate records
• Providing support across purchase ledger and payroll when required

This is a hands-on role within a fast-paced team and will suit someone who is comfortable taking ownership and working proactively.

• Experience within a transactional finance role, ideally around 2-3 years
• Strong sales ledger experience
• Confident in dealing with queries and resolving issues
• Experience carrying out reconciliations
• Organised, reliable and able to work independently
• Experience using Sage would be beneficial but is not essential

The structure of the team offers long-term stability, with development focused on broadening experience and responsibilities over time.

If you're looking for a role where you can genuinely contribute within a supportive and well-run organisation, we'd love to speak with you.
