• Mailbox Management: Daily monitoring of our dedicated refunds mailbox to ensure urgent requests are processed on the same day, with non-urgent items handled efficiently in the bi-daily payment run. You'll also ensure all outstanding invoices are paid before refunding any amount to a 'Lost block'.

• Month-End & Strategic Support: Assist the Purchase Ledger Team with critical month-end tasks and support strategic acquisitions with preparations and timely integration of newly acquired entities' payroll systems.

• Proven experience in managing a Sales Ledger.

• Meticulous attention to detail and a high standard of accuracy.
