Job description

Accounts Receivable Specialist - £28k - £30k per annum - Taunton/ Remote - Part time

Ok, so you’ve got a couple of years of accounting experience under your belt, you’re a transactional whizz, and you’re AAT qualified (or nearly there). What’s on your new-job wish list?

• A challenging and interesting role?
• Flexible part‑time hours that can include working from home?
• A successful, fast‑growing business where you can grow too?
• Maybe your list is longer, and maybe this company offers even more than you expect.

Intrigued? Then read on.

Trial Balance Consulting have once again been exclusively engaged by one of the South West’s fastest growing success stories. From strong regional roots they now support clients across the UK while maintaining an outstanding working culture and excellent leadership. This is your chance to join a team that is building something truly special.

In this role you’ll work closely with the Head of Finance, taking the lead on sales ledger management while also supporting general transactional processing.

What you will be doing:

• The preparation and processing of accurate, timely sales invoices for subscriptions and services, ensuring correct revenue recognition in line with accounting standards.
• Maintaining the sales ledger, regularly reconciling accounts to ensure all payments and receipts are accurately recorded.
• Managing customer communications regarding invoices, payment status, and account balances.
• Processing supplier invoices and assisting with payment runs, ensuring accuracy and adherence to agreed terms.
• Reviewing and processing employee expense claims, ensuring policy compliance and timely reimbursement.
• Supporting with month‑end closing activities and maintaining accurate financial records using accounting software.
• Collaborating with Sales and other departments to ensure accurate invoicing and seamless financial communication.
• Providing ad‑hoc finance support and cover team tasks during peak periods or absences.

We’re looking for an AAT qualified or nearly qualified finance professional who enjoys working with people as much as with numbers. This role suits someone who takes pride in keeping the sales ledger accurate and up to date, while being happy to jump in and help across the wider finance team when needed. A background in accounts receivable or sales ledger work would be great, and any experience with SaaS or subscription billing is a bonus. You’ll be comfortable preparing invoices, reconciling accounts, and talking to customers or colleagues to resolve queries. If you’re organised, curious to keep learning, and like collaborating to get things done, you’ll fit right in.
