Civilcast is a leading Australian manufacturer and distributor of precast concrete and steel infrastructure products. With manufacturing based in Cowra, a distribution centre in Erskine Park, and branches across NSW, VIC, QLD and SA, we supply civil, agriculture and infrastructure customers right across the country.
We're growing fast, and we're looking for people who want to grow with us. Our culture is built on getting things done, backing our people, and doing right by our customers every time.
About the Role
We're looking for an experienced Accounts Receivable Manager to own the end-to-end AR function across our national branch network. Based at our Erskine Park office, you'll manage everything from invoicing and collections through to credit control, debtor reporting and month-end close, all while leading and developing a small AR team.
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who knows AR inside out and wants real ownership over the process, the reporting and the people.
What You'll Be Doing
Managing the end-to-end accounts receivable function — invoicing, debt collection and credit control — across our NSW, VIC, QLD and SA branches.
Keeping aged debtor balances on target, chasing overdue accounts and escalating recovery action when needed.
Assessing customer credit limits and payment terms in line with our credit policy, balancing risk against the relationship.
Processing and allocating customer payments accurately and on time in NetSuite.
Preparing and presenting debtor reporting — aged receivables, cash collection forecasts and bad debt provisioning — to the Finance Manager and leadership team.
Reconciling the AR ledger and resolving account discrepancies, disputes and short payments.
Working closely with branch sales and contracts teams to sort out invoicing queries and keep customers happy.
Owning the month-end AR close process and hitting Finance team deadlines.
Managing monthly progress claims for major projects, ensuring they're submitted accurately and on time to keep cash flowing.
Leading, coaching and developing your AR team, with regular one-on-ones and straight, constructive feedback.
Spotting and driving improvements to AR processes and controls, including NetSuite optimisation.
What You'll Bring
Proven experience in Accounts Receivable or Credit Control management is essential — this isn't an entry-level role.
Strong working knowledge of accounts receivable, credit management and debt collection principles.
Confidence having difficult conversations and negotiating with customers professionally.
Sharp attention to detail with solid reconciliation and problem-solving skills.
The ability to juggle competing priorities and hit deadlines, especially around month-end.
Experience leading or supervising a small team.
Experience managing progress claims on major or construction projects is highly regarded.
Solid Excel skills and comfort working across accounting/ERP systems (NetSuite experience highly regarded).
A customer-first mindset and a proactive, get-it-done attitude.
Why Civilcast?
Be part of a genuinely growing Australian business with a transparent plan and ambition.
Real ownership of your function, not just a seat in a process.
A team that backs you to grow your skills and your career.
A workplace where people say what they mean and get on with the job.
If you're ready to take ownership of a national AR function and lead a team that delivers, we want to hear from you.
