+ AAT study funding

The Opportunity

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

You'll be involved in:

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.
