Where you fit in

At Shell Energy, we believe there’s a better way to power your business.

Aligned with Shell’s ambition to be a significant global power business and to become net zero by 2050, we are here to guide businesses to a better energy future.  One that has the customer and a commitment to cleaner energy at the heart and makes it easy and affordable to embrace new technology. 

We offer businesses across Britain 100% renewable electricity as standard. Our cleaner, affordable and simple solutions help companies manage their energy spend and plan their sustainability roadmap - a fresh approach for environmentally conscious businesses that are looking to boost their sustainability credentials. We also offer natural gas to our customers with the option of supplying green gas on request. 

What’s the role?

Reporting into the Cash & Collections Manager, the Accounts Receivable Administrator will take ownership of the daily reconciliations of the bank, sales ledger, billing and payments to ensure accurate cash allocations to customer accounts.

Responsibilities in this role will include:

  • Complete daily reconciliation of the sales ledger
  • Train other members of the team
  • Ownership of unallocated cash ensuring it is at a reasonable minimum month on month within agreed targets set by line manager.
  • Reconcile monthly billing to bank
  • Allocate and import incoming customer payments into Sales Ledger
  • Investigate customer payment queries and any unallocated customer receipts
  • Reconcile and investigate Indemnity Claims, Chargebacks, and other bank claims
  • Responding to customer queries from Operations teams
  • Updating customer account information and records
  • Creating and Issuing customer statements
  • Involvement in ad-hoc project work

What we need from you

We are keen to hear from individuals with proven experience in an Accounts Receivable role. You’ll also bring in your strong Microsoft Excel skills and prior experience of reconciling large volumes of data.

We are seeking a dedicated and driven individual with a keen eye for detail. You must have demonstrable organisation skills to meet operational deadlines and must be able to communicate effectively at all levels.  As a self-starter, you should thrive when working independently and taking initiative.

If you don't see yourself fully reflected in every job requirement listed on the posting above, we still encourage you to reach out and apply. Research has shown that not everyone often applies when they don’t feel 100% qualified. We are committed to creating a more equitable, inclusive, and diverse company and we strongly encourage applicants of all genders, ages, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, sexual orientation, and life experiences to apply. We look forward to receiving your application.

Since then, we have grown into a leading innovative Oil & Energy company that rewards its employees by investing heavily in their careers and learning. Our people are our greatest asset, and our commitment to your career will see you thrive in a work environment that offers an industry-leading development programme. When your ideas travel, Shell will benefit, and innovation will thrive. Shell has a key role to play in helping meet the UK’s growing energy demand, whilst using innovative technologies to develop cleaner energy. We are the largest FTSE 100 company in the UK by market capitalisation and make a significant contribution to the UK economy. As well as processing 35% of the gas coming into the UK, we serve more than four million customers at our filling stations each week.

An innovative place to work

There’s never been a more exciting time to work at Shell.

Join us and you’ll be adding your talent and imagination to a business with the ambition to shape the future – whether by investing in oil, gas and renewable energy to meet demand, exploring new ways to store energy, or developing technology that helps the world to use energy more efficiently, everyone at Shell does their part.

An inclusive place to work

  • We’re closing the gender gap – whether that’s through action on equal pay or by enabling more women to reach senior roles in engineering and technology.
  • We’re striving to be a pioneer of an inclusive and diverse workplace, promoting equality for employees regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
  • We consider ourselves a flexible employer and want to support you finding the right balance. We encourage you to discuss this with us in your application.
