Gleeson is excited to be partnering with a well-established business in Lichfield that's undergoing an exciting restructure! They're looking for a Trainee Sales Ledger Clerk to join their finance team - a brilliant opportunity for someone eager to kick-start their career in accounts.
This role is perfect for someone with great attention to detail, a proactive attitude, and a willingness to learn. While this is an entry-level role, we're looking for someone who has already taken steps towards a career in finance-whether through AAT studies or 6+ months of experience in an accounts role.

Raising invoices across different cost centres, handling around 900 invoices per month.
Creating invoices through various portals and ensuring they are accurately recorded for multiple depots.
Generating invoices on behalf of the sales team, ensuring accuracy and timeliness across daily, weekly, and monthly cycles.
Managing batch invoicing, working with high-volume data entry while maintaining precision.
Handling ad hoc invoice requests, including manual invoicing for specific transactions.
Supporting the wider finance team with administrative and ad hoc tasks as needed.
Opportunities to get involved with other areas, such as assisting with credit checks further down the line.
Who We're Looking For:
✅ Some prior exposure to finance - whether that's 3-6 months in an accounts role or working towards an AAT qualification.
✅ Strong attention to detail - this role is hands-on and requires accuracy.
✅ A proactive, can-do attitude - someone who takes initiative and wants to develop in finance.
✅ Comfortable handling numbers and data, with a keen eye for spotting errors.
✅ Must be able to drive due to office location.
What's In It for You?
⭐ Hybrid working - Tuesday to Thursday in office, Monday & Friday from home.
⭐ Early finish on Fridays!
⭐ Study support available if you want to progress.
⭐ Free on-site parking.
⭐ A lively office with a great mix of personalities!
