Accounts Assistant
Full-time · Remote - UK hours
Invoices out, subcontractor payments right, nothing sitting unpaid.
Who you would be working with
Simpled Services is a property maintenance and refurbishment company. We work for housing associations, letting agents, landlords and private clients, mostly in London and the South East, and on jobs across the rest of the UK.
More than 8,500 jobs have gone through us. Mould and damp, leaks, plumbing, painting, kitchens and bathrooms, full refurbishments, end of tenancy work. Some of it is a two hour repair. Some of it runs for months.
The work is run inside Plan@Job, our own platform. Your jobs, the address, the scope, your photos, your reports and your invoice all sit in one place, so nobody is chasing anybody through WhatsApp for a picture of a finished wall.
The role
Money moves through this company in both directions every day. Client invoices go out, subcontractor invoices come in, and both have to match a real job.
This seat keeps that tidy, so the people who did the work get paid on time and the work we did gets billed.
What the work is
- Raise and send client invoices against completed jobs.
- Process subcontractor invoices, match them to the job and flag anything that does not agree.
- Chase what is owed to us, politely and persistently.
- Keep the records our accountant needs, in the format they need them.
What we need from you
- Bookkeeping or accounts experience, ideally where jobs and invoices had to match.
- Accurate with numbers, and you check rather than assume.
- Comfortable chasing payment without falling out with anybody.
- Fluent English, written and spoken.
The pay
Salary is discussed on the first call.
Please do not apply if
- You would send an invoice out without checking what was actually done.
- Chasing money makes you uncomfortable.
