Accounts Receivable & Administration Officer

IM Partners is recruiting an experienced Accounts Receivable and Administration Officer for an established Adelaide business.

We are looking for someone who is good at the part of accounts that can make the biggest difference to a business: following things up, getting clear answers and making sure nothing disappears into a black hole.

The primary focus of the role is accounts receivable and debtor follow-up, but this is not a narrow collections position.

You will also work across invoice processing, reconciliations, CRM records and general finance administration, supporting an established accountant and finance team.

This is a role for someone who likes having ownership of their work.

If a customer says they will pay Friday, you follow it up Friday.

If an invoice does not look right, you check it rather than putting it through and hoping someone else catches it.

If you are waiting on information internally, you chase it.

And when something genuinely needs to be escalated, you can clearly explain what has happened, what you have already done and what is needed next.

What you will be doing
Your role will include:

- Managing accounts receivable and consistently following up overdue customer accounts
- Speaking with customers by phone and email to confirm payment status and commitments
- Entering and checking customer and supplier invoices
- Recording receipts and allocating them against the correct accounts
- Completing account and supplier reconciliations
- Investigating discrepancies, missing information and unallocated transactions
- Maintaining accurate finance and CRM records
- Following up outstanding information and internal actions
- Preparing account information and routine reporting for the accountant
- Supporting the broader finance function with bookkeeping and accounts administration

You will have clear boundaries around financial approvals. You are there to keep the work accurate and moving, not to make decisions outside your authority.





Who we are looking for You will already have practical experience in accounts receivable, accounts administration or bookkeeping.

More importantly, you will be someone who takes responsibility for finishing what you start.

You need to be comfortable picking up the phone and professionally asking a customer for payment. You should be confident working through discrepancies, checking information and asking questions when something does not make sense.

You will probably suit this role if you:

- Have hands-on accounts receivable experience
- Have worked with invoice entry, receipts and reconciliations
- Are comfortable dealing directly with customers about overdue accounts
- Are accurate with numbers and notice when something does not look right
- Can manage recurring deadlines without needing to be constantly reminded
- Communicate clearly and professionally
- Know when to investigate something yourself and when to escalate it
- Are confident using accounting systems, CRM platforms and spreadsheets

A bookkeeping or accounting qualification would be helpful, but practical experience and demonstrated capability will carry more weight.

The opportunity This is a good role for someone who wants more ownership than a traditional transactional accounts position.

You will work across several parts of the finance process rather than sitting in one very narrow function, while still having the support and escalation point of an accountant.

There is also genuine flexibility in how the role can be structured.

We will consider:

- Full-time employment
- Part-time employment across five days
- School-hours arrangements for the right person

Regular coverage across the working week is key, but we are open to discussing the hours that make the arrangement work.

If you are reliable, organised, commercially sensible and someone other people can trust to follow something through without repeatedly being chased, we would like to hear from you.

Apply through IM Partners with your current CV and tell us briefly about your accounts receivable experience and the working arrangement you are looking for.
