LiverpoolPermanentHybridFull-TimeLead

Posted 3 weeks ago

Description

The role of the Accounts Receivable Manager is to manage day‑to‑day Accounts Receivable operations to ensure accurate, timely debt collection and cash application across CSL entities.

The role leads a small operational team, resolves routine to moderately complex escalations, and ensures compliance with accounting policies and service standards, while contributing to continuous improvement initiatives led at a higher level.

Main Responsibilities and Accountabilities:
  • Manage day‑to‑day AR operations: Ensure timely collections, accurate cash application, and adherence to documented accounting policies and procedures.
  • Provide team leadership and supervision: Allocate work, monitor workload and performance, provide coaching and feedback, and support development plans for direct reports.
  • Handle escalated operational issues: Act as escalation point for moderately difficult collection disputes, payment allocation issues, and customer queries, referring high‑risk or exceptional matters to senior leadership.
  • Ensure compliance and control adherence: Monitor AR activities to ensure compliance with internal controls, accounting standards, and audit requirements.
  • Review and validate reporting outputs: Prepare and review month‑end AR reports including debt ageing, KPIs, and bad debt provisions, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
  • Support month‑end close activities: Coordinate AR inputs into the close process and respond to routine queries from Account‑to‑Report, FP&A, and audit teams.
  • Drive local process improvements: Identify inefficiencies and implement incremental improvements aligned with global AR standards, contributing ideas rather than owning end‑to‑end design.
  • Collaborate with key stakeholders: Work with Commercial Operations, Customer Service, and in‑country Finance to resolve customer issues and support business needs.
  • Act as subject‑matter resource: Provide practical guidance on AR policies and procedures to team members and stakeholders.
  • Support projects and change initiatives: Participate in AR‑related projects or system/process changes led by the Global Process Owner or senior finance leadership.

Education Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or related discipline. Advanced degree or professional certification desirable but not mandatory.

Experience Requirements
4+ year’s experience in accounting/finance with strong AR exposure. Prior experience leading or supervising a small team preferred.

This role is based out of our Financial Shared Service Centre, Speke, Liverpool. This is a hybrid role, requiring 3 days per week working onsite in Liverpool.
