A brilliant opportunity for someone with sales ledger, credit control or customer-focused finance experience to build a long-term career within a supportive, family-led business.
We're recruiting an Accounts Receivable Administrator for a well-established, family-led business with a strong reputation for looking after its people. This is a hands-on finance role focused on maintaining an accurate sales ledger, allocating customer payments, resolving account queries and professionally chasing outstanding invoices. You'll be joining a friendly, close-knit finance team where accuracy, communication and customer service really matter. The role reports into a supportive, approachable and hands-on manager, and there may also be future opportunity for funded AAT study once you are settled in.
Key Responsibilities
- Posting and allocating customer payments accurately
- Contacting customers by phone and email regarding outstanding invoices
- Resolving customer account, invoice and payment queries
- Sending invoices, statements, credit notes and copy documents
- Taking card payments over the telephone
- Opening and updating customer accounts
- Completing credit checks for new customers
- Raising invoices and credit notes when required
- Keeping records accurate within the finance system
- Supporting the wider finance team where needed
What We're Looking For
We're interested in speaking with people who have experience in accounts receivable, sales ledger, credit control or a similar finance administration role. You'll need to be confident speaking with customers, comfortable chasing payment professionally, and able to work accurately with numbers, systems and financial information. You'll likely suit this role if you are:
- Organised, accurate and detail-focused
- Confident on the telephone
- Comfortable managing a varied workload
- Numerate and able to work with Excel
- Positive, reliable and keen to develop within finance
- Happy working five days per week in an office-based role
Candidates from strong customer service backgrounds may also be considered, particularly if you are confident with customers, good with numbers and interested in building a finance career.
Why Join?
This is a good opportunity to join a stable, non-corporate business with a flat structure, friendly culture and a manager who is described as supportive and hands-on. You'll be part of a close team where your work has a clear purpose: keeping customer accounts accurate, supporting cash collection and helping the wider finance function run smoothly. The package includes a salary of £28,000-£32,000, 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, and potential funded AAT development after around six months. Some flexibility may also be available around personal commitments, such as school pick-up.
If you're interested in learning more, we'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.
