Fixed-Term Contract: 6–9 Months
Role Purpose
AMCS is seeking an experienced Lead-to-Cash Transformation Lead (Credit & AR)on a 6–9 month fixed-term basis to stabilise, remediate and modernise the Group's Accounts Receivable and Credit Control function.
This role has two clear, time-bound objectives:
Rapidly improve aged receivables, cash collection and DSO, bringing discipline, ownership and momentum to overdue debt across regions
Design and deliver a transformed, AI- and automation-enabled Lead-to-Cash process, embedding sustainable ways of working that reduce manual effort and prevent re-occurrence
This is not a caretaker role. It is a high-impact transformation assignment requiring strong execution, cross-functional leadership and the ability to leave behind a materially stronger operating model.
Key Focus Areas & Accountabilities
1. Immediate Aged Receivables & Cash Recovery
Take firm, hands-on ownership of aged debt across NAM, EMEA and ANZ
Establish clear accountability, cadence and escalation for overdue receivables
Lead focused AR recovery actions, including:
Customer prioritisation
Root-cause analysis (billing, contract, dispute, data issues)
Targeted resolution plans with Sales, Customer Success and Billing
Deliver visible, measurable improvement in:
Aged debt profiles
Cash collections
DSO and forecast accuracy
Provide clear, transparent reporting to senior finance leadership on progress, risks and blockers
2. Lead-to-Cash Process Transformation (Design & Delivery)
Act as a finance transformation lead for the end-to-end Lead-to-Cash process, spanning:
Deal structure and billing readiness
Invoicing accuracy and timeliness
Revenue-to-AR handoff
Dispute management
Cash application and reconciliation
Partner closely with the Revenue Accounting Manager to ensure:
Clean alignment between billing, AR, revenue and deferred balances
Elimination of downstream revenue and AR rework driven by upstream failures
Work with the Finance Data & Transformation team to:
Map current-state pain points
Define a pragmatic, scalable target-state L2C model
Prioritise fixes with the highest cash and control impact
3. AI, Automation & Data-Led AR Enablement
Identify and implement automation and AI-enabled solutions to reduce manual AR effort and accelerate cash collection, including:
Automated dunning and customer follow-ups
Intelligent ageing and risk segmentation
AI-assisted dispute triage and root-cause classification
Reduce dependency on spreadsheets and manual trackers through system-based workflows and dashboards
Define a clear set of core AR and cash KPIs, automated and visible by region, customer segment and ageing bucket
Ensure all improvements are embedded, documented and transferable at the end of the contract
4. Governance, Controls & Sustainability
Strengthen end-to-end AR controls, ensuring:
Completeness and accuracy of AR ledgers
Clear ownership of disputes and adjustments
Clean reconciliation between AR, revenue and cash
Ensure improvements support auditability and future scale
Leave behind:
A stabilised AR position
A clearly defined and documented Lead-to-Cash operating model
A prioritised roadmap for future enhancements
Stakeholder & Team Engagement
Work closely with:
Group Financial Controller
Revenue Accounting Manager
Finance Data & Transformation team
Regional Finance, Sales Ops and Customer Success
Provide direction and hands-on support to existing credit and collections teams while avoiding dependency on the role long-term
Lead through influence, clarity and pace rather than extensive line management
Candidate Profile
This role will suit someone who has:
10+ years' experience in AR, Credit, Order-to-Cash or Lead-to-Cash transformation
A background in:
Big 4 advisory (O2C / finance transformation / working capital), and/or
Senior SaaS AR / RevOps / Credit leadership roles
Proven experience:
Turning around aged debt positions quickly
Redesigning broken or manual AR processes
Using automation, data and AI pragmatically to drive results

The credibility and confidence to challenge entrenched behaviours and drive change fast
Experience in SaaS or recurring revenue models strongly preferred
What Success Looks Like
Aged receivables materially reduced and under control
Clear improvement in DSO and cash predictability
A simplified, automated Lead-to-Cash process with fewer handoffs and exceptions
Revenue, AR and cash aligned and reconcilable end-to-end
A finance team equipped with better tools, clearer ownership and sustainable processes
