About the Role

My client is seeking a bright, organised and detail-oriented Accounts & Commercial Support Assistant to join its growing team in Central London.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a long-term career within a commercial business environment. While the role will initially focus on finance and administration support, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to progress into purchasing, sales support and wider commercial operations as they develop within the business.

Working closely with the Finance, Operations and Sales teams, you'll gain exposure across multiple areas of the organisation and play an important role in supporting day-to-day business operations.

Key Responsibilities

Initially, your responsibilities will include:

Processing purchase invoices
Administering sales invoices
Maintaining accurate records within Xero
Bank and supplier reconciliations
Supplier statement reconciliations
Assisting with credit control activities
Processing staff expenses
Maintaining customer and supplier records
General finance administration
Supporting month-end reporting processes
Providing ad hoc office and administrative support

Future Development Opportunities

As your experience grows, you'll have the opportunity to take on broader commercial and sales support responsibilities, including:

Obtaining supplier and distributor pricing
Preparing customer quotations
Checking pricing, margins and quotation accuracy
Processing customer purchase orders
Raising supplier purchase orders
Liaising with technology vendors and distributors
Tracking orders and deliveries
Maintaining pricing databases and information
Supporting Account Managers with proposals and quotations
Assisting with customer renewals
Supporting the wider sales operation

About You

We're looking for an ambitious and proactive individual with a willingness to learn and develop.

You'll ideally have:

Experience within accounts, administration, finance support or commercial administration
Strong numerical skills and attention to detail
Excellent organisational abilities
Good Excel skills
Strong written and verbal communication skills
The ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
A proactive, hands-on approach
Confidence learning new systems and processes
Commercial awareness and a willingness to take ownership of tasks

Experience using Xero would be advantageous but is not essential.

Career Progression

This role offers a genuine development pathway:

Stage 1: Finance Administration
Building expertise in invoices, reconciliations, Xero and financial administration.

Stage 2: Purchasing & Commercial Support
Developing supplier relationships, pricing knowledge and purchasing administration skills.

Stage 3: Sales Support
Supporting customer quotations, margin checking, renewals and Account Managers.

Stage 4: Commercial Development
Potential progression into sales operations, account management or wider commercial business roles.

What's Most Important

The business is particularly interested in candidates who demonstrate:

Exceptional accuracy and attention to detail
Strong learning agility and intelligence
Excellent organisation and time management
Numerical confidence
A positive, can-do attitude
Commercial awareness
Teamwork and relationship-building skills

This opportunity would suit a high-potential junior professional looking to grow with a business, rather than someone pursuing a traditional accounting career path.
