Accounts Payable Assistant

Are you an Accounts Payable professional who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and understands the fundamentals behind the process?

A growing multi-entity luxury consumer brand business is looking for an Accounts Payable Assistant to join its London-based finance team.

This is an international, fast-growing business operating across multiple brands and entities in the UK and Europe. It’s a hands-on, entrepreneurial environment with a close-knit and sociable team and good exposure across finance. The company is scaling quickly - 2026 revenue was originally projected at c.£20m and is now expected to land at 25% above target, with 2027 projected at £50m+ so it's a truly exciting time to join the business.

This role has come about following an internal move, with the current AP person stepping up into a broader accounting-focused position, showcasing the business' strong track record of progression. It’s a good opportunity for someone who wants strong ownership, direct exposure across the finance team, and the chance to build experience in a business where not everything is fully automated.

What will you be doing?

• Processing supplier invoices across PO and non-PO workflows
• Posting invoices onto SAP and ensuring correct approvals are in place
• Managing supplier queries, payment runs and remittance advice
• Tracking PO creation and chasing outstanding releases
• Supporting banking activity, reconciliations and cash flow updates
• Handling expenses, petty cash and cash advances
• Producing core month-end AP reporting and supporting audit
• Building relationships with suppliers and stakeholders across the business

What would we love to see from you?

• 2+ years’ AP experience
• SAP experience helpful, alternatively comfortable with manual invoice processing
• Multi-entity or multi-currency exposure
• Retail/consumer industry experience
• Organised, proactive and comfortable working independently

Location: Central London (4 days in office / 1 day from home)

Salary: £34,000-£38,000 + bonus + study support

Start date: ASAP (max 6 weeks notice)
