Robert Half is currently partnering with an established healthcare organisation to recruit an experienced Accounts Receivable Officer for a permanent full-time opportunity based in Perth.

This position supports a respected specialist medical team, reporting directly to the Practice Manager. This role will take ownership of billing and finance administration across a busy surgical and consulting environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate with prior medical finance experience who understands the complexities of specialist billing, patient invoicing, and insurer-related collections, and who is comfortable working in an environment that is evolving operationally and technologically.

The Role

As the Finance Officer, you will play a key role in the day-to-day financial operations of the practice. Your responsibilities will include:

• Medical invoicing and billing
• Bank reconciliations
• Cash allocation
• Debt collection and follow-up with insurance providers
• Reporting support
• Billing administration across multiple surgeons
• Managing fluctuations in billing volumes aligned to clinic and theatre schedules
• Supporting end-of-month processes, with a particular focus on surgeon billing cycles

You will also be joining the business at a time of process review and improvement, so a proactive mindset and the ability to adapt to change will be highly valued.

About You

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

• Previous experience working in the medical or healthcare sector
• Strong understanding of medical terminology and billing processes
• Knowledge of private patient billing, health insurance, life insurance, and workers compensation claims
• Experience with core finance duties including invoicing, reconciliations, allocations, and reporting
• Xero experience highly desirable
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• A professional and compassionate phone manner
• Patience, empathy, and the ability to communicate clearly with patients and stakeholders
• The resilience to work within a longstanding business that is on a journey of system and process improvement

You will be working within a well-established medical setting, supporting a specialist surgeon group and collaborating with an experienced wider administration team. The environment is professional, longstanding, and relationship-driven, so strong interpersonal skills are essential.

Why Apply?

This is a great opportunity for a capable and experienced healthcare finance professional who enjoys ownership, variety, and working in a purpose-led medical environment. The business is seeking someone who can bring experience, maturity, and confidence into the role while helping support future improvements in finance processes.
