Company Description
Hi! We're UW. We’re on a mission to take the headache out of utilities by providing them all in one place. One bill for energy, broadband, mobile and insurance and a whole lot of savings!
We’re aiming to double in size as we help more people to stop wasting time and money. Big ambitions, to be delivered by people like you.
Got your attention? Read on…
We put people first. We work as a team. We make a difference.
So, you're looking to join our Accounts Payable team as an Assistant? Splendid choice. We’re looking for someone who loves getting stuck into the numbers to make sure everything gets processed accurately and our suppliers get paid exactly when they should.
Job Description
What you'll do..
As part of the Finance team at Utility Warehouse, you'll help make looking after our finances a doddle. You will:
- Help teams across the business sort out their day-to-day money questions.
- Help us roll out fresh new systems and find better ways to get things done.
- Have a friendly chat with suppliers to fix any queries they have.
- Tie up our monthly balance sheets to make sure every penny adds up perfectly.
- Look after staff credit cards and expenses, and help sort out any hiccups.
- Run regular supplier statement checks to keep everything ticking over smoothly.
- Help out with our weekly and monthly payment runs so our bills get paid on time.
- Keep our purchase orders moving beautifully, from the first receipt right through to the final payment.
- Work closely with the rest of the team to help us hit our goals.
Qualifications
We like to keep things as no-nonsense as possible, so here is what we are looking for:
- Excel or Google Sheets mastery: You truly know your way around a spreadsheet.
- Accounts Payable experience: You've worked with automated or manual payment systems before. If you know NetSuite (or something similar), that’s a massive plus.
- The financial basics: You understand core bookkeeping, like debits, credits, and multi-currency payments.
- Tech-savvy: You're happy using AI tools to make your day move a bit faster and work smarter.
About you:
- You have a great sense of humor and stay smiling, even when the pressure is on.
- You’re a natural problem solver, a great team player, and always look for ways to make things run a bit smoother.
