Job Description
We Are St Helens Borough Council

Located in the heart of the Northwest close to Liverpool, Manchester and Lancashire, St Helens is a transformational Council which is passionate and ambitious for the communities we support. We provide a wide range of local authority services to the residents, businesses, schools, and visitors to the borough. We can only do this because of our highly valued, highly skilled workforce.

Working together, our workplace vision and values guide our organisation, and the contribution of our workforce is key to our culture journey. Employees with us receive a wide range of benefits including well-being in work, financial benefits, ways of working and learning and development support.

Making A Difference as an Accounts Payable Assistant in the Accounts Payable Team

The postholder will assist the Accounts Payable Manager in delivering a professional Accounts Payable Service on behalf of the Council.

Your role is to undertake processes to ensure the prompt and accurate payment of sums due to supplier and other external parties and administrative tasks in support of that function.

You must be prepared to work in a busy, team environment and possess excellent written, mathematical and verbal communication skills. Previous experience of dealing with the processing of invoices for payment would be an advantage.
