Job Summary What you’ll be doing (besides sipping coffee and balancing the books):
  • Making sure invoices go out accurately and on time (because nobody likes surprises).
  • Chasing overdue accounts – politely persistent, but firm enough that clients know you mean business.
  • Reconciling accounts and ironing out discrepancies (you’ll be the peacemaker between numbers).
  • Keeping an eagle eye on credit limits and making sure payment terms aren’t just pretty words on paper.
  • Pulling together reports that actually make sense to management.
  • Building professional client relationships (sometimes with a smile, sometimes with a stern reminder).
  • Spotting ways to improve processes and boost cash flow efficiency.
  • Escalating sticky situations when it’s time to call in the big guns (legal).
What we’re looking for:
  • A diploma or degree in Accounting/Finance (or the battle scars of equivalent experience).
  • At least 1–2 years wrangling debtors/accounts receivable.
  • Solid tech skills (Excel wizardry is a bonus; Xero/QuickBooks know-how earns brownie points).
  • Communication skills that balance charm with authority.
  • A hawk-like eye for detail and a calm head when things get tricky.
  • Reliable transport – yes, this is non-negotiable.
The vibe:
  • Full-time, Monday to Friday (with the occasional sprint at month-end).
  • Mostly office-based, with potential for hybrid depending on the company policy.
  • Collaborative, professional, and results-driven – with a touch of humour to keep things sane.
If you’re proactive, persistent, and secretly enjoy the thrill of seeing “Payment Received” notifications, then this role was practically written for you.West Coast PersonnelRecruiter
