Accounts Receivable Specialist (ref: 1127173)
Oakville, ON
Permanent, Full-time
$70,000–$80,000
Your new company
Our client is an established organization based in Oakville that operates within the manufacturing and technology space, providing specialized products and solutions to customers across Canada and the U.S. They have a well-established operation and are looking to add an experienced Accounts Receivable Specialist to their finance team.
Your New Role
Reporting to the Controller, you will take ownership of the Accounts Receivable function across a Canadian and U.S. customer base. This is a standalone AR position where you will manage a mix of smaller customers and larger, more complex B2B accounts. Your responsibilities will include managing the AR ledger, collections, cash application, account reconciliations, invoicing and customer account inquiries. You will build strong relationships with customers and their Accounts Payable teams, investigate payment and invoice discrepancies, and support credit management activities. You will also work closely with internal teams, prepare AR reports and account statements, and identify opportunities to improve AR processes, controls and efficiencies.
What You’ll Need to Succeed
Ideally, you will have 5+ years of Accounts Receivable experience, including strong B2B collections and customer relationship management experience. You should be comfortable independently managing an AR function and working with larger or more complex customer accounts. Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 is preferred, although other ERP experience will be considered. Strong Excel skills, excellent attention to detail and confident written and verbal communication skills are important. Exposure to credit management and experience within a manufacturing environment would be assets. A college diploma or bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field is preferred. Mandarin language skills would be helpful but are not required.
What you’ll get in return
You will receive a competitive base salary of $70,000–$80,000, three weeks' vacation and a company benefits package. The company also offers an RSP contribution of $2,500 per calendar year with 100% company matching after three months. This is primarily an office-based position in Oakville, Monday to Friday, with flexibility around start and finish times and occasional work-from-home flexibility. This is a great opportunity to take ownership of a standalone AR function while gaining further exposure to complex B2B accounts, credit management and process improvement.
