Senior Accounts Receivable Specialist

Full-time, 38 hours per week

You probably know us - Action. That great store where you can find everything from craft supplies to home essentials at unbeatable prices. But behind our 3,000+ stores across 15 European countries, there is a complex and fast-moving financial operation keeping everything running. Our Accounts Receivable team plays a vital role in that - and right now, we are looking for a Senior AR Specialist who is ready to take real ownership, drive change, and make an impact from day one.

This is your daily action

As a Senior Accounts Receivable Specialist, you are the go-to expert within the AR team. You work closely with a team of two colleagues who handle the day-to-day administrative tasks, while you focus on the complex, high-level AR work that requires experience, judgement, and a sharp eye for process improvement.

Your scope covers reseller accounts, pallet invoices, fines, and third-party relationships across multiple European countries. No two days are the same; there is always something to get your teeth into.

In this role, you will:

You play a review role in the invoice creation process and the dunning process.
Take ownership of complex AR cases, VAT-related queries, assessing root causes, and proposing solutions.
Play an active role in e-invoicing processes: reviewing outgoing invoices, monitoring dashboards, double-checking accuracy, and following up with process experts on open items.
Collaborate closely with Tax, Process Experts, Buying, Construction and Business Controllers — keeping communication clear, structured and assertive, to ensure cross-functional issues are resolved efficiently.
You monitor AR performance and provide meaningful insights into trends, risks, and developments.
Prepare well-structured escalation reports for the Team Lead when needed, including context, analysis, and recommended next steps.

Meet your team

You will join the Cash & Bank Office team, sitting within our Finance Shared Service Center at Action's international headquarters in Zwaagdijk. You will work alongside two AR colleagues and report to the Team Lead. The team operates in a dynamic, international environment where things move fast - there is a lot of change happening right now, and we need someone who likes to work in a vibrant environment.

This is you

You have a solid foundation in AR and you know how to apply it in a large, complex organization. You are practical, hands-on, and comfortable stepping in at both a detailed and high-level perspective. You ask questions when you need to - and you are not afraid to challenge the status quo if it means improving the process.

In addition:

Experience in Accounts Receivable, preferably in a large, fast-paced international environment
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills — you are assertive, clear and professional, even in complex or sensitive situations
Excellent command of English and/or Dutch; additional European languages are a plus

Preferred skills:

Strong SAP S/4HANA skills - you understand the AR flow end-to-end and know your way around the system
Experience with e-invoicing processes, including working with dashboards, validation workflows and compliance requirements
Advanced Excel skills for data analysis, reconciliation and reporting

What we offer

Surprisingly much. From our headquarters in the Netherlands, you have direct impact on financial operations across 15 European countries. We are growing fast — and that means there is always room to grow with us, whether that is deepening your expertise, taking on new challenges, or moving into a different role down the line. On top of that, you can count on:

A competitive salary based on a 38-hour work week
24 days of holiday with the option to buy 5 extra days
15% staff discount at Action
A solid pension scheme, collective health insurance, travel and work-from-home allowance

How we contribute to society

If you only know Action from the stores, a world will open up for you when you join us. For example, we are working hard behind the scenes to make a positive impact on society and the environment. Did you know, for example, that we sponsor more than 2,000 children worldwide who are growing up in an SOS Children’s Village? That our team reflects the diversity of our customers, including 124 nationalities? That we already source 70% of our wood products and 86% of our cotton sustainably? And that only energy-efficient LED lighting is used in more than half of our stores? Yes, that is also Action. Curious about what other initiatives we’re facilitating? Join our team and find out for yourself.
