## Description

PURPOSE OF THE ROLE

The Senior Accountant – Accounts Receivable is responsible for the Accounts Receivable and Order-to-Cash activities of DA-Desk and Marcura Platform Solutions, covering billing, collections, cash application, and revenue recognition and reporting — ensuring accuracy, timely recovery of receivables, and clear visibility of customer outstanding balances for the business.

The role brings standardisation to customer-level visibility of revenue, invoicing and outstanding balances, and holds ownership of collections performance for an assigned customer portfolio, including ageing, DSO and overdue exposure. It requires a sound understanding of the business and its revenue drivers, the ability to manage large data sets and present up-to-date insights, control over pricing in the revenue systems, and effective partnering with Sales and Account Management on outstanding invoices, billing queries and customer escalations.

## Requirements

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

● Maintain up-to-date, detailed pricing data to support invoicing and revenue management.

● Apply control checks on invoicing data across all revenue streams.

● Participate in the end-to-end Accounts Receivable process, from invoice generation through to collection and cash application.

● Prepare, review and issue customer invoices accurately and on schedule, ensuring supporting data, tariffs and contractual terms are correctly applied before dispatch, and resolving discrepancies prior to release.

● Manage collections for an assigned customer portfolio: monitor ageing reports, follow up on overdue invoices through structured dunning, and escalate long-outstanding or high-risk accounts in line with the agreed escalation matrix.

● Issue statements of account and payment reminders, and record committed payment dates and collection notes to maintain a reliable receivables and cash-inflow forecast.

● Perform cash application on a daily basis, allocating incoming receipts to the correct customer invoices and matching remittance advices accurately.

● Interact with Sales and Account Management on outstanding invoices — sharing overdue positions, obtaining customer feedback, resolving billing queries and disputes, and jointly agreeing recovery actions on ageing accounts.

● Coordinate and assist in year-end finalisation and audits, providing AR schedules and supporting documentation.
