• Raise purchase orders and assist with the procurement of construction materials, plant, equipment, and site consumables.
• Liaise with suppliers, subcontractors, and internal project teams to coordinate orders, resolve discrepancies, and maintain strong working relationships.
• Maintain accurate purchasing and accounts payable records, ensuring all documentation is compliant with company policies and procedures.
• Support project teams by tracking material orders, monitoring delivery schedules, and following up on outstanding items to minimize project delays.
• Identify opportunities to improve accounts payable and purchasing processes while providing administrative support to the finance team as required.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of Accounts Payable experience, including invoice processing, reconciliations, and payment runs.
• Strong understanding of the three-way matching process and resolving invoice discrepancies.
• Previous purchasing experience is an advantage but not essential—full training will be provided.
