Technology is no longer just an enabler of business strategy. It is the business strategy. And with AI reshaping how companies operate, compete and grow — while rapidly accelerating the pace of change — the stakes have never been higher.
Our role
We’re focused on helping private equity investors and portfolio company leaders drive value creation through technology. In a world where investors deploy trillions annually into software and tech-enabled businesses, we're the team that makes sure the underlying technology actually delivers.
Our approach
The expert judgment of our experienced practitioners is complemented by proven frameworks, tech-enabled solutions, and objective data to help organizations navigate critical technology decisions across diligence, transformation, growth, cybersecurity, AI, and operational execution.
What we value
Everything we do is grounded in five core values: Service. Curiosity. Credibility. Commitment. Creativity.
If you're energized by solving complex technology challenges and helping others succeed in critical moments, you'll fit right in.
Overview
The Accounts Receivable Specialist, EMEA will report to the Financial Controller and work closely with client-facing colleagues, other managers within the organization, and the Finance team at the parent company in the USA. The role will be a key contributor to Crosslake EMEA’s accounts receivable (“AR”), client billing and cash collection activities, while also supporting the accurate and timely processing of accounts payable (“AP”) invoices and payments.
A central part of the role is delivering a highly tailored, white-glove approach to credit control. It requires understanding the Crosslake business context of each client engagement and the ability to use that understanding to determine the appropriate timing, tone and route for collection activity.
The role requires strong written and verbal communication as well as sound professional judgement. It is suited to an individual comfortable communicating professionally with stakeholders at all levels of a client organisation, including Finance teams, senior executives or contacts at private equity houses. Client communications must be precise, tailored and support timely collection while supporting the broader client relationship.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Alongside AR, the role will support AP. As Crosslake continues to grow and therefore evolve its Finance working practices to include more automation, the role will oversee AP transactional workflows, resolve exceptions and queries, and maintain appropriate controls.
The role is a crucial part of the business’s operations and is expected to be pro-active in the function’s ongoing commitment to learning and to process improvement. The individual will have a strong proactive mindset, excellent attention to detail and uphold Crosslake’s standards of excellence in client service.
