Job Description

A growing Manchester City Centre business is seeking an experienced Credit Manager to lead their Accounts Receivable team. This hybrid role focuses on driving change, improving processes, and ensuring financial compliance. With opportunities for progression, flexible working, and great benefits, it offers an excellent work-life balance in an inclusive environment.

Key responsibilities include leading and developing the Accounts Receivable team, overseeing credit control activities, managing cash forecasting and performance reporting, and ensuring compliance with financial controls. You will also play a key role in driving continuous improvement initiatives, enhancing systems and processes, and building strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders. The business is seeking someone who can challenge existing ways of working and deliver meaningful operational improvements.

To be considered, you should have proven experience in credit control or accounts receivable, along with prior team leadership or management experience. Strong Excel skills are essential, as are excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities, and confidence working with financial data and KPIs. Experience with ERP systems is required, while exposure to a Shared Service Centre or a fast-paced/FMCG environment would be advantageous.

The company's continued growth offers genuine opportunities for career progression, with many employees advancing into senior roles. With the option to work from home three days per week, the role supports a healthy work-life balance-particularly as many organisations move back to full-time office-based working. The benefits package includes a bonus scheme, 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, enhanced maternity leave, and more.
