What you'll do:

As an Accounts Receivable Associate, you will play an integral role in supporting global accounts receivable operations within a newly formed Shared Services Centre. Your day-to-day responsibilities will involve processing financial transactions with accuracy, maintaining clear communication with customers regarding payments, reconciling accounts to ensure data consistency, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional service. You will also contribute to process improvements by sharing insights during the development of new procedures. This position offers you the chance to be involved in shaping best practices from inception while gaining exposure to international finance operations. Success in this role will come from your attention to detail, organisational abilities, willingness to collaborate across departments, and commitment to upholding high standards of compliance.

  • Process customer invoices, credit notes, and receipts accurately within the system to ensure timely and precise financial records are maintained.
  • Perform daily accounts receivable activities such as cash application, billing, and collections to support smooth order-to-cash operations.
  • Reconcile customer accounts regularly by investigating discrepancies and resolving issues efficiently to maintain data integrity.
  • Follow up with customers regarding outstanding payments in a polite and considerate manner, ensuring prompt resolution of any payment-related concerns.
  • Support monthly and quarterly closing activities by preparing necessary documentation and collaborating with relevant teams for accurate reporting.
  • Maintain comprehensive AR records and documentation in strict compliance with internal controls and audit requirements to uphold transparency.
  • Collaborate closely with internal teams including Sales, Customer Service, and Finance to facilitate seamless end-to-end order-to-cash processes.
  • Participate actively in the development and improvement of accounts receivable processes and standard operating procedures to enhance efficiency.
  • Assist with system testing and transitions during the setup phase of the Shared Services Centre by providing valuable feedback and support.

What you bring:

Your proven experience as an Accounts Receivable Associate will be demonstrated through your ability to handle financial transactions meticulously while maintaining strong interpersonal connections both internally and externally. You bring not only technical proficiency but also a genuine enthusiasm for working collaboratively within diverse teams. Your background in accounting or finance supports your understanding of industry standards, while your comfort with ERP systems allows you to adapt quickly as new technologies are introduced. By being organised, responsive, and attentive to details, you ensure that every aspect of accounts receivable runs smoothly. Your sensitivity towards others’ needs helps create a pleasant working atmosphere where everyone feels supported. Ultimately, your combination of technical skills and emotional intelligence makes you an invaluable member of this growing team.

  • A degree or diploma in Accounting, Finance or a related field provides you with the foundational knowledge required for success in this role.
  • Between one to three years of experience working in Accounts Receivable or Order-to-Cash functions equips you with practical understanding of key processes.
  • Familiarity with shared services environments is advantageous but not essential; openness to learning new systems is highly valued.
  • Proficiency in ERP systems such as SAP enables you to navigate complex financial platforms effectively.
  • A keen eye for detail ensures accuracy when processing transactions and reconciling accounts within tight deadlines.
  • Excellent organisational skills allow you to manage multiple tasks efficiently while maintaining high standards of documentation.
  • Strong communication abilities help you interact considerately with customers as well as internal stakeholders across various departments.
  • Interpersonal skills foster positive relationships within cross-functional teams, contributing towards communal goals.
  • Comfort working in an evolving environment demonstrates adaptability as processes are developed and refined during the SSC setup phase.
