Credit Controller
Permanent and Full time
Haverfordwest
Paying up to £35,000
Are you a confident communicator with a sharp eye for detail, great commercial instinct, an excellent understanding of credit processes and a passion for debt management? This role is vital in maintaining good lines of communication between sales and accounts teams, healthy cash flow and strong customer relationships. You'll be responsible for overseeing credit control activities, ensuring timely collection of outstanding payments, and supporting the wider finance team with reporting and reconciliation tasks, as well as month-end duties (including prepayments and accruals).
You'll manage the accounts receivable function, making sure all payments are accurately allocated, and customer accounts are kept up to date. A key part of your role will be communicating with customers to chase overdue balances, resolve queries, and ensure monthly targets for cash collection, and ageing profiles are consistently met.
Working closely with internal departments, you'll help resolve account discrepancies and support the sales team by preparing weekly reports and coming up with new, strategic ways of working. You'll also calculate and post monthly sales commissions, ensuring accuracy across accounting records and payroll.
In addition to your core credit control duties, you'll assist with ad hoc finance tasks and contribute to special projects, all while promoting workplace values.
I'm looking for someone with an AAT qualification or equivalent experience, who thrives in a fast-paced finance environment. You should have previous experience in credit control or accounts receivable, along with solid bookkeeping knowledge including accruals and prepayments. Strong analytical skills and attention to detail are essential, as is proficiency in Microsoft Excel. Experience with ERP systems is highly desirable.
If you're ready to take the next step in your credit control career and make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you; apply by uploading a current CV. Call Emma Lewis for more information on 01792 642 042
