Remote Recruitment is hiring an Accounts Receivable Clerk for a UK-based business. You will look after the money coming in: raising invoices, allocating payments, chasing overdue accounts and keeping the ledger clean. This is a full-time, 100% remote role working 09:00-17:00 UK time (11:00-19:00 SAST) from anywhere in South Africa.

Chasing payment is part of the job, so a polite but firm approach with customers matters as much as accuracy with numbers.
Key responsibilities

- Raise and issue customer invoices accurately and on schedule

- Allocate incoming payments and reconcile the sales ledger

- Chase overdue accounts by email and phone, keeping relationships intact

- Investigate and resolve billing queries and disputes

- Produce aged debtor reports for the finance team

- Keep customer account records complete and current

What you will need

- Experience with accounts receivable, credit control or bookkeeping

- Familiarity with accounting software such as Xero, Sage or QuickBooks

- Confidence with spreadsheets and reconciliations

- Clear written and spoken English for customer contact

- A reliable internet connection, a working laptop and a quiet workspace

- Availability across UK business hours

What is on offer

- A single monthly salary of R23 000, paid on time

- Fully remote work with no commute

- A long-term placement with one UK employer

- Exposure to UK finance practice and systems

- Onboarding and ongoing support from the Remote Recruitment team
