Join a UK Manufacturer in a Period of Exceptional Growth!

Consortium Professional Recruitment are partnering with a rapidly growing UK manufacturer to appoint an Accounts Receivable Manager. With significant investment supporting its expansion and an increasingly international customer base, the business is entering an exciting new phase and strengthening its finance capability to support that momentum.

This is an opportunity to join a manufacturer where growth is creating genuine scope to make an impact. You’ll take ownership of a key finance function and help ensure the processes and controls around receivables continue to evolve as the organisation increases in scale and complexity.

The Opportunity:

As Accounts Receivable Manager, you’ll lead a busy receivables function within a fast-paced manufacturing environment where strong cash management is increasingly important to continued growth.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Leading and supporting the receivables team, setting clear priorities and helping colleagues develop and perform at their best.
• Maintaining a clear view of aged debt, payment trends and customer accounts, ensuring issues are identified and addressed promptly.
• Ensuring invoicing, cash allocation and account reconciliations are completed accurately and within agreed timescales.
• Partnering with colleagues across finance, sales, customer service and operations to resolve billing and payment issues and improve the customer experience.
• Improving processes, reporting and controls, while identifying opportunities to introduce greater efficiency and automation.

Your work will help ensure the finance function keeps pace with a rapidly growing UK manufacturing business, supporting healthy cash flow, stronger working capital and sustainable expansion.

About You:

You may already be an Accounts Receivable Manager, Credit Control Manager or an experienced receivables professional ready to take on greater ownership and leadership responsibility.

We’re looking for someone who can bring:

• Strong accounts receivable or credit control experience, including collections, reconciliations and cash allocation.
• Experience leading, coaching or supervising colleagues, with an inclusive and supportive approach to management.
• A good understanding of aged debt, debtor days, credit risk and the factors that influence successful cash collection.
• Confidence working with Excel and finance systems to understand performance, spot trends and identify where action is needed.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build constructive relationships with customers and colleagues across different functions.
• A proactive, improvement-focused mindset and the confidence to challenge existing ways of working when there is an opportunity to do something better.

AAT, part-qualified ACCA/CIMA/ACA or equivalent experience would be advantageous, although practical experience and demonstrable capability are equally valued.

The Benefits and Package:

In return, you’ll enjoy:

• Up to £47,000 DOE
• State of the art modern office location
• On site gym
• Study support for future development
• Genuine opportunities of career progression – countless success stories from across the business
• The opportunity to join a rapidly expanding UK manufacturer at an important stage of its development.
