National Credit Controller | Accounts Receivable Manager

National Credit Controller | Own the Function! Drive the Results!

About the opportunity

MJM Recruit has partnered with one of Australia's largest distributors of cleaning products, equipment and consumables. With more than 35 years of success the business has built an outstanding reputation through exceptional service, long-term customer relationships and continuous growth.

We are seeking experienced, commercially minded National Credit Controller's to take ownership of the national Accounts Receivable function.

We are not looking for people to simply manage Accounts Receivable; we are looking for people who will take ownership, challenge the status quo, drive results and leave the business in a stronger position than when they started.

You will inherit a sizeable national debtor portfolio with the opportunity to improve collections, strengthen processes, becoming trusted advisors to the senior leadership team.

If you enjoy making a genuine impact and gain satisfaction from delivering measurable results, we would love to hear from you.

About the role

Reporting directly to the Group CFO and Managing Director, you will lead the national Accounts Receivable function across 15 branches, mentoring and supporting a small Accounts Receivable team.

Key responsibilities include:

- Leading the national Accounts Receivable function and debtor portfolio
- Driving collections and reducing aged debt
- Managing complex debtor relationships, credit risk and disputes
- Leading, mentoring and developing the Accounts Receivable team
- Overseeing reconciliations, cashflow and management reporting
- Identifying opportunities to improve systems,



processes and credit control nationally

About you

This role requires confidence, resilience and commercial judgement, someone who is naturally assertive, confident and comfortable having challenging conversations. You will know when to negotiate, when to stand your ground and when to escape.

You are not a "yes" person; you think independently, respectfully challenge where appropriate and earn the trust of those around you through your professionalism, sound judgement and ability to deliver results.

Most importantly, you will treat the business as though it were your own, taking genuine pride in your work and always looking for ways to improve performance.

You will be successful if you:

- Love chasing outstanding debt and achieving results
- Take ownership and hold yourself accountable
- Enjoy improving processes rather than maintaining them
- Can confidently influence people at all levels
- Build relationships while handling difficult conversations professionally
- Thrive in a fast-paced, hands-on environment

You will bring:

- Extensive experience in Credit Control and Accounts Receivable
- Leadership or mentoring experience
- Experience managing complex collections and high-value accounts
- Strong reconciliation and cash management skills
- Excellent commercial acumen and organisational skills

What is on offer?

- $95,000 – $130,000 + Super (depending on experience)
- National leadership opportunity
- The chance to genuinely influence the business
- Secure, long-established Australian organisation
- Supportive executive leadership
- Long-term career opportunity
- Monday to Friday (8:00am – 5:00pm)
