This is a hands-on, high-accountability role responsible for actively managing customer credit exposure, enforcing payment discipline, and driving consistent cash flow outcomes across the debtor ledger.

●Exercising strong credit control judgement, including ongoing assessment of customer creditworthiness, exposure, and payment behaviour

●Reconciling payment platforms (including Stripe and other gateways) to ensure completeness,

●Identifying and resolving complex payment discrepancies, unapplied cash, and allocation issues with minimal supervision
●Processing refunds, credit notes, and account adjustments in line with approval frameworks and credit governance standards
●Ensuring the integrity of the Accounts Receivable ledger through continuous monitoring and reconciliation discipline

At month-end, you will:
●Take ownership of AR close activities, ensuring a fully reconciled and controlled debtor ledger position
●Review and cleanse the Accounts Receivable Trial Balance, resolving aged, disputed, or unreconciled balances
●Ensure all customer accounts are accurately reflected prior to financial close
●Issue customer statements on the first working day of each month as part of a controlled and validated close process
●Support audit requirements by providing transparent, accurate, and well-supported reconciliations and documentation
About You
●3-5 years of experience in Credit Control and Accounts Receivable, with strong responsibility for managing collections and debtor performance
●Demonstrated ability to actively manage overdue accounts and drive resolution without escalation dependency
●Strong credit judgment with experience assessing customer risk, credit limits, and trading terms

●Experience working with NetSuite or a comparable ERP system, with strong capability in AR processing, allocations, and reconciliations
●Strong commercial mindset with the ability to balance customer relationships against credit risk and cash flow outcomes
