A well-established independent law firm with offices across West Yorkshire is currently seeking an experienced Legal Cashier to join its busy Accounts team, based in Bradford city centre.
This modern and ambitious firm works with a diverse client base, from individual entrepreneurs and family businesses through to nationally recognised brands and successful UK companies.
Known for its straight-talking approach and supportive culture, the firm offers a collaborative environment where people are encouraged to develop and progress.
This is a full-time role (9.00am-5.30pm) with one day working from home and offers an excellent opportunity to become part of a close-knit finance team.
The Legal Cashier will be responsible for the accurate and timely processing of financial information, supporting the Head of Finance with day-to-day legal accounts duties. The role is varied and hands-on, covering client and office account transactions, banking, payments and reconciliations, alongside general accounts administration.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Bank reconciliations and management of out-of-date cheques
- Processing incoming receipts, CHAPS payments and credit card transactions
- Preparing cheque payments and supporting fee earners with billing queries
- Posting client-to-office transfers and managing petty cash
- Inputting purchase ledger invoices, office disbursements and staff expenses
- Producing Excel spreadsheets and assisting with general administration
- Ensuring compliance with the Solicitors Accounts Rules and maintaining strict confidentiality
You will also deal with internal and external enquiries, work closely with fee earners on a daily basis, and support the senior finance team with ad hoc tasks as required.
Applicants should have around three years experience in a similar Legal Cashier role, along with recent working knowledge of the Solicitors Accounts Rules. Youll be comfortable working as part of a team in a fast-paced environment, organised with strong attention to detail, and confident managing multiple priorities. Experience using legal case management systems, alongside solid Excel skills and familiarity with online banking systems, is essential.
This is a great opportunity for a Legal Cashier looking to join a respected regional firm offering stability, variety and a genuinely supportive working culture. There are great benefits on offer including a general annual leave allowance (increasing with length of service), health cash plan, rewards & incentives, discount schemes and "dress for your day" dress code, fresh fruit and other "nibbles" available!
