Finance Administrator
A well-established, global engineering business in Loughborough is looking to hire a Finance Administrator to join a friendly, stable transactional finance team. This vacancy has arisen due to a leaver and offers a steady, hands-on role with variety across Sales Ledger / Credit Control and some Purchase Ledger support.
The role
You’ll sit within a supportive finance function, working closely with the wider transactional team to ensure day-to-day finance processes run smoothly and cover is in place for holidays/sickness.
Key responsibilities (approx. 80% SL/CC, 20% AP):
- Credit control: chasing debt, resolving queries and maintaining relationships
- Sales ledger: billing/invoicing, allocations and reconciliations
- Cash allocation and general ledger admin support
- Purchase ledger support (overflow/cover as required)
- Supporting process improvements, including involvement in an ERP/SAP upgrade project (training provided as needed)
What they’re looking for
- Previous experience in credit control and/or sales ledger within a transactional finance environment
- Comfortable working with an ERP system (SAP not essential)
- Excel confidence (formulas essential; pivots useful—can be taught)
- A reliable, team-first approach—this suits someone happy in a steady, non-corporate “career-ladder” environment
