• Validate customer data, service usage, pricing schedules, and billing configurations prior to invoice generation.
• Maintain billing records and ensure changes to customer accounts are accurately reflected within billing systems.
• Investigate and resolve billing exceptions, disputes, and discrepancies, working closely with customers and internal stakeholders.
• Identify opportunities to streamline billing activities through improved processes and automation.
• Support revenue assurance activities by identifying billing gaps, anomalies, and potential revenue leakage.

• Manage customer accounts to ensure timely payment of invoices and healthy debtor balances.
• Monitor aged debt and proactively manage collection activities across the customer portfolio.
• Administer Direct Debit collections, payment processing, and cash allocation activities.
• Investigate payment disputes and coordinate resolutions with customers and internal teams.
• Establish appropriate credit limits and undertake customer credit assessments.
• Agree payment arrangements where required whilst balancing customer relationships and commercial risk.
• Escalate high-risk accounts and support recovery actions when necessary.

• Produce and maintain accounts receivable, cash collection, and debtor performance reporting.
• Track and report key metrics including:
  • Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)
  • Collection effectiveness
  • Aged debt
  • Cash collection performance
  • Billing accuracy
• Analyse customer payment behaviour and recommend actions to improve cash flow and reduce risk.
• Support month-end close activities, including accrued income, bad debt provisions, reconciliations, and audit requirements.
• Ensure financial records remain accurate and compliant with internal controls.

• Support the migration from multiple legacy billing platforms to a modern cloud-based billing solution.
• Assist with data validation, testing, process mapping, and user acceptance testing activities.
• Identify manual processes and implement automation opportunities where appropriate.
• Contribute to system enhancements and process improvement initiatives across the wider finance function.
• Develop and maintain documentation, procedures, and operating standards.
