Customer Ledger Clerk in Corsham

Corsham Full-Time 28800 - 42000 £ / year (est.) No working from home possible
Natalie Wells Recruitment

Some customer-ledger jobs look exactly the same after three years as they did after three months.

This one doesn't have to.

You'll be joining a successful, fast-growing business operating within a resilient and rapidly expanding industry.

The role also offers a clear route to broader responsibility: master the customer ledger and you could progress to managing both the customer and supplier ledgers for subsidiary companies.

You might already work in sales ledger or credit control.

You may be studying AAT and looking for a role that gives you more than data entry and invoice chasing.

Either way, you'll want to take ownership, use your initiative and get things done.

The job

You'll help manage customer accounts across both public- and private-sector revenue streams, ensuring invoices are raised correctly and payments arrive when expected.

You'll:

  • Set up new customers and maintain their accounts.
  • Raise monthly, quarterly and ad-hoc invoices.
  • Manage purchase orders and customer portals.
  • Post receipts into Sage and update cash-flow information.
  • Issue statements and confirm payment dates.
  • Resolve invoice queries quickly.
  • Chase overdue balances professionally.
  • Work with project managers to keep billing on schedule.
  • Escalate problems before they become month-end surprises.

There is credit control, but not the table-banging variety.

It is about knowing your ledger, building effective customer relationships and removing whatever is preventing an invoice from being paid.

What we're looking for

You'll need previous experience within a finance team, ideally involving sales ledger, customer accounts or credit control.

Sage experience would be helpful, and you should be comfortable using Excel.

You'll also be:

  • Accurate and organised.
  • Confident speaking to customers.
  • Persistent without becoming confrontational.
  • Calm around month-end deadlines.
  • Willing to solve problems rather than pass them on.
  • Able to work independently while supporting the wider team.

You'll join a high-performing and supportive finance department with an established record of developing good people.

The opportunity to progress is genuine, but it will be earned by demonstrating that you can take responsibility and deliver consistently.

What's on offer?

  • £27,000-£32,000, depending on experience.
  • Performance-related bonus.
  • Study support towards a relevant qualification such as AAT (if required)
  • Hybrid working.
  • Free parking.
  • Genuine scope to broaden your responsibilities as the business grows.

Due to the office location you'll need your own transport and be willing to complete the required security checks.
