Accounts Receivable Assistant
The Why
Our mission is to reconnect people into the natural world and their natural potential – starting with feet.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, technically minded and customer-orientated Accounts Assistant to join our Finance team. This role sits within the Financial Control team, supporting the Accounts Receivable function with sales invoices, customer account management and month-end reconciliations.
Vivobarefoot is a digital-first business and we believe AI and technology will fundamentally change how great work gets done. You don't need to be an expert, but you do need to be genuinely open to it curious about what these tools can do, willing to explore how they apply to your work, and excited by the idea of finding smarter, faster ways of doing things.
If you've already started experimenting, even better. If you haven't yet but you're ready to, you'll fit right in.
Where You’ll Play
Customer & Invoice Management
- New customer set up, including credit checks, and maintenance of account records for accuracy
- Monitoring automated invoicing processes in our ERP system (NetSuite) and investigating exceptions
- Raising sales invoices for delayed fulfilment notifications outside of the automation and the issuing of credit notes
Cash Collection and Customer Communications
- Proactively collecting due and overdue cash from customers
- Customer relationship management including payment reminders and query resolution, working closely with the Commercial and Operations teams where required
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with customers while ensuring timely payment across a high volume of Wholesale accounts
- Monitoring incoming payments and supporting the bank reconciliation by allocating payment to customer accounts accurately and timeously
- Liaising with customers where there are payment discrepancies
