Group AP/AR Administrator

We are looking for a Group AP/AR Administrator to Akind, an international group with high ambitions and a clear goal of being the best place to grow, for both people and business. Come join us!

About the role

Akind is a family of brands (Academic Work, Brights, Winona, Crowd Collective) located in six European countries. We are now looking for a Group AP/AR Administrator to join our international finance team based in Linköping.

In the Group AP/AR team, we manage three core processes: Accounts Payable (AP), Accounts Receivable (AR), and Credit. You will join a dedicated team of six colleagues with diverse experiences. Together, we handle the financial flows for approximately 35 companies across six countries. While you will specialize in one of these processes, our aim is for everyone in the team to gain knowledge of the entire flow. This promotes knowledge sharing, personal growth, and a team that is always ready to support one another.

Work tasks

Example of main duties in the team include:

Accounts Payable: Manage the entire flow from invoice arrival to payment and post-control. You will set up new suppliers, handle reminders, and manage communication internally and externally

Accounts Receivable: Invoicing for our various companies and providing support throughout the process. You will act as a problem solver and guide colleagues across the organization on billing issues.

Credit: Conduct manual credit assessments for new and existing customers, reconciling bank payments, and managing potential debt risks.

Provide first-class support in AP/AR and credit to colleagues across the organization, as well as to our clients and suppliers.

Contribute to best practices to increase quality and efficiency. You will work daily in systems like Workday, Basware, and Google Sheets, and we encourage you to challenge our current ways of working as we evolve.

You will be part of a larger finance department in Linköping consisting of approximately 30 employees. Our culture is defi
