It's checking the figures, surrounded by a priceless past.

It's feeling inspired to deliver to the very highest standards, and it's joining the professional business behind the monarchy. This is what it feels like to work for the Royal Household.

As a Accounts Receivable Assistant, you'll join a team of professionals who are responsible for the running, maintaining and checking of sales ledgers across the organisation.

You'll make sure all sales ledger transactions are processed correctly and within the agreed timescales, supporting the smooth daily operation of the Household.

From day one you’ll have responsibility for your own workload, be it processing receipts, distributing monthly statements, or processing sales invoices. Working as part of a team to meet deadlines will be critical to your success.

Liaising with managers, internal customers and Auditors will also be a big part of your role. Handling varied sales enquiries, the sheer variety of people you'll support will surprise you.

The high standards you'll aim for will provide the biggest challenge, as well as the greatest reward. And being part of a team at the heart of a world-famous institution will be what drives you.

With previous accounts receivable/sales ledger experience, you’ll have a good grounding in accounting procedures and be able to quickly pick-up a varied and busy workload.

Ideally studying for a professional accountancy qualification, you’ll possess Maths and English to GCSE (or equivalent) level, and will have sound IT skills.

Organised and detail focused, you're able to meet and often surpass daily targets.

With your proactive approach and excellent communication skills, you're able to build positive working relationships. What's more, your approach to customer service will be second-to-none.

And in all that you do, you'll carry out your work with impeccable attention to detail and faultless accuracy, whilst maintaining excellent customer service levels.
