Hours: Full time, Monday to Friday
This is a rare chance to step into a newly created role and genuinely make it your own. A well-established resort and hospitality business in the Midlands is looking for a driven finance professional to lead its revenue and accounts receivable function, bring structure to a large and complex ledger, and modernise how the team works, with the backing to make real, visible change from day one.
About the Role:
The role sits alongside the Assistant Financial Controller and reports directly to the Financial Controller. What started as a credit control position has grown into something broader: part accounts receivable, part revenue accounting, and part systems and process improvement. You will lead a small team responsible for revenue posting, event billing and reconciliation, take ownership of reconciling revenue recorded through the operational systems against cash received, and act as the main point of contact for queries from sales and operational teams.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and develop a small accounts receivable and revenue team, ensuring cover, training and consistent standards.
- Oversee reconciliation of revenue recorded through operational systems against cash, card and bank receipts.
- Manage credit control for corporate, events and third party accounts, chasing payment in line with agreed terms.
- Oversee billing and invoicing for events, conferences and functions.
- Review existing processes and identify where better use of systems or automation can reduce manual work.
- Handle refunds, miscellaneous invoicing and commission processing, with appropriate authorisation.
- Own month end and year end control processes for accounts receivable, including balance sheet reconciliations.
- Lead the periodic review of bad debt, recommending write off only as a last resort.
- Act as the key point of contact for sales and operational teams on billing and revenue queries.
- Support system upgrades and improvement projects alongside the finance and IT teams.
- Support the year end external audit process.
What We're Looking For:
- Proven experience in accounts receivable, credit control or revenue accounting, ideally with some line management or supervisory experience.
- Strong Excel and data analysis skills, comfortable working with high volumes of transactional data.
- A track record of improving processes and making better use of systems.
- A confident, clear communicator, able to build relationships with finance and non-finance colleagues alike.
- A calm, collaborative leadership style, able to introduce best practice while respecting an experienced, long-serving team.
- Accounting qualification not required. Candidates qualified by experience, or studying towards a qualification, are welcome to apply.
What's on Offer:
- Salary of £35,000 to £38,000, dependent on experience.
- Generous staff discount, including on stays, dining and retail.
- Leisure and golf membership.
- Free onsite parking.
- The chance to shape a role and make a visible, lasting improvement to how the business operates.
