The opportunity:

Are you ready to kickstart your finance career? Our Group Finance Team is looking for a Purchase Ledger Apprentice to join us at our headquarters in Salford. This is your opportunity to gain hands-on experience and study towards AAT Level 2 or 3, depending on your prior experience.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Processing invoices in our system and ensuring timely approvals
  • Checking statements and liaising with suppliers to resolve queries
  • Posting payments and allocating invoices in the ledger
  • Supporting the Accounts Payable team to meet strict monthly deadlines
  • Maintaining attention to detail and managing repetitive tasks efficiently
  • Taking on ad-hoc duties to support the wider finance team

What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Organised, reliable, and able to manage multiple tasks
  • Enthusiasm to learn and grow within a professional finance team
  • GSCE grade 5 and above in Maths and English, open to recent graduates but this is not essential.

What You’ll Gain:

  • Practical experience in a fast-paced finance environment
  • Professional development through AAT Level 2 or 3 qualification
  • The chance to work with a supportive, dynamic team at our Salford HQ

Eligibility: To apply for this apprenticeship, you must have lived in the UK or UK Territories for the past 3 years and have full legal rights to work during that time. Time spent in the UK solely on a student visa does not count toward this 3-year residency requirement.
