About this role
At Anthony Harper, we thrive on delivering innovative and creative legal solutions that challenge conventional thinking. With offices in Tāmaki Makaurau and Ōtautahi, we're known for partnering with clients to drive meaningful business outcomes, while ensuring every person at our firm feels valued and supported to reach their potential.
About the opportunity
We’re looking for an experienced Credit Controller to join our Finance team and take ownership of the firm’s credit control function. You’ll proactively manage our outstanding debt, working closely with Partners, Authors and clients to support timely payment while maintaining positive client relationships.
This is a relationship-focused role where you’ll regularly engage with Authors to review aged debt, agree collection actions and provide clear updates on progress. You’ll also prepare aged debtor reporting, manage client invoice portals and eBilling requirements, and work collaboratively to resolve issues that may be delaying payment.
As part of our wider Finance team, you’ll also provide Accounts Receivable support when required and contribute to improving our credit control and AR processes.
About you
You’ll bring previous experience in credit control, debt collection or Accounts Receivable and be confident taking ownership of a portfolio of outstanding accounts. You’ll be comfortable having sometimes challenging conversations and know how to approach these professionally, constructively and with the client relationship in mind.
Strong stakeholder management skills will be key. You’ll be confident building relationships with senior stakeholders and clients, following up when action is needed and using your judgement to determine when matters need to be escalated.
You’ll be organised, proactive and detail-focused, with confidence working with financial information and systems. Experience in a law firm or professional services environment, including exposure to eBilling and client invoice portals, would be an advantage.
