Job Description

We are working with a well-established waste management business in Bristol that is looking for a confident and organised Credit Controller to join its finance team. This is a hands-on role where you'll take ownership of credit control and sales ledger activities, keeping customer accounts up to date, invoices accurate and payments coming in on time.

Location: Bristol

Salary: Circa £30,000 per annum

Hours: Day shift, 9:00am–5:00pm, Monday to Friday

Job Type: Full-time, permanent, office-based

Benefits: Company pension scheme

You'll be comfortable picking up the phone, speaking professionally with customers and confidently following up outstanding payments. Working closely with the Operations and Accounts teams, you'll resolve queries quickly and keep things moving. If you're commercially aware, detail-focused and enjoy building positive relationships while getting results, this is a great opportunity to develop your finance experience in a varied, business-critical role.

What You'll Be Doing

Credit Control

Proactively monitor and chase outstanding debts and overdue payments

Carry out regular credit checks and manage customer credit limits alongside the Operations team

Investigate and resolve customer disputes and invoice queries promptly

Work closely with customers and internal teams to prevent payment delays

Maintain accurate, up-to-date customer contact and account information

Build and maintain positive, professional relationships with customers

Sales Ledger

Generate accurate sales invoices using Sage 50

Process and issue authorised invoices and credit notes to customers

Prepare and distribute customer statements

Maintain accurate records and organise relevant financial documentation

Support the wider Accounts team with additional finance and administration tasks when required

What We're Looking For

You'll ideally have:

Previous experience in credit control, accounts receivable or a similar finance role

Good working knowledge of Sage 50 and Microsoft Excel

Strong attention to detail and excellent organisational skills

A confident and professional telephone manner

Strong written and verbal communication skills

The ability to manage your workload, prioritise effectively and meet deadlines

A positive, proactive approach and willingness to learn

The ability to work collaboratively as part of a wider team

Most importantly, you'll be comfortable having conversations about money — following up an overdue invoice, resolving a query or working with an internal team to find a solution — communicating confidently, professionally and constructively.

What's on Offer

Salary circa £30,000 per annum

Day shift, 9–5, Monday to Friday — no evenings or weekends

Company pension scheme

A varied role across credit control and sales ledger, with genuine responsibility and room to develop

Eligibility

Applicants must have the permanent right to live and work in the UK. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position
