Your new company
Your new company is a long‑established, high‑volume manufacturing business operating in a fast‑paced environment. The finance team is continuing to strengthen its capability, creating an opportunity for an experienced Senior Accounts Receivable Specialist to take ownership of the full AR function.
Your new role
Your new role is a senior position within the Accounts Receivable function, with full ownership of the end‑to‑end receivables process. You will oversee high‑volume daily invoicing, ensure the accuracy of the sales ledger, manage EDI and system‑based reconciliations, and maintain strong credit control processes.
The role includes managing a small team, providing day‑to‑day guidance, training, and clear direction, while driving continuous improvement across AR processes. You will perform detailed balance sheet reconciliations, produce KPI dashboards, and work closely with operational and commercial colleagues to quickly resolve invoicing or despatch discrepancies.
What you'll need to succeed
What you'll need to succeed is extensive Accounts Receivable experience within a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment (minimum of 5 years). You will have proven people‑management skills, advanced Excel capability (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, data manipulation), and experience with ERP systems and EDI processes.
You'll bring high attention to detail, the confidence to oversee complex and large‑value invoicing, and strong communication skills to engage effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
What you'll get in return
What you'll get in return is a chance to lead and influence a critical function within a sizeable organisation processing significant daily invoice volumes. You'll receive a competitive benefits package including 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, on‑site staff discounts, and the opportunity to shape processes and add real value within a growing and supportive finance team.
