Ready to Help Us Keep the Numbers Flowing?

Sea Lanes is growing fast — three sites and counting — and our finance team needs a sharp, organised Accounts Assistant to help keep everything running smoothly.

This is your chance to join a high-performing team that’s OPEN. BRAVE. DIRECT. — and help us build the financial foundations for a business that’s just getting started.

What Makes Your Day Amazing

Reconcile supplier statements and resolve discrepancies; maintain supplier account records.
Prepare and execute payment runs (BACS/CHAPS) and manage payment authorisations.
Perform regular bank reconciliations and investigate reconciling items.
Reconcile point-of-sale (POS) / revenue receipts to accounting records and daily takings.
Process and reconcile staff expense claims, checking receipts and authorisations before payment.

Support the Bigger Picture

Create and raise recharge / intercompany invoices and follow up on recoveries.
Assist with month-end routines and ad-hoc finance queries.
Support the Financial Controller with payroll processing (e.g. collating timesheets, payroll journals) and with preparing VAT returns.

Sharpen Our Systems

Maintain filing and supporting documentation for audits and internal controls.
Liaise with operations and external suppliers on invoice/payment issues.
Spot opportunities for automation, help implement new finance tools, and contribute to business transformation projects.
