Description
At Montego, we believe great business runs on two things: strong relationships and healthy cash flow (in that order… mostly). We’re on the lookout for an Accounts Receivable Clerk who can balance both with finesse — someone who knows their way around a spreadsheet but also understands that behind every invoice is a human being (who may or may not need a gentle nudge).
If you’re equal parts detail-driven, commercially savvy, and quietly persistent when it comes to collecting what’s owed, this might just be your next move.
What you’ll be doing (aka how you’ll make your mark)
Invoicing, Credit Notes & Reconciliations
You’ll be the gatekeeper of accuracy and compliance:
Ensure all invoicing aligns with agreed credit terms and limits
Flag and communicate credit breaches (firmly, but politely)
Process credit notes and returns in line with company policies
Own monthly reconciliations — investigating and resolving variances like a pro
Keep co-op and retail accounts tidy,accurate, and dispute-free
Customer Age Analysis
Because cash flow doesn’t manage itself:
Monitor payment behaviours and keep a close eye on ageing accounts
Proactively follow up on overdue balances (with charm and persistence)
Provide meaningful insights and recommendations to management
Escalate risks before they become problems
Payment Reconciliation
Where precision really counts:
Allocate payments accurately and resolve discrepancies
Investigate unallocated payments andrequest journal corrections where needed
Collaborate across teams to ensure everything balances — beautifully
Customer Service & Relationship Management
Firm but fair — always:
Act as the primary contact for customer queries
Resolve issues efficiently while keeping stakeholders informed
Distribute clear andaccurate statements
Build strong relationships that make collections smoother (and less awkward)
Promotional Management
Supporting sales without losing sight of the numbers:
Ensurediscounts pull in correctly on sales orders as per the promotion
Manage availability of stock related to promotions
Ensure all transactions areaccurate and policy-compliant
