Job Description

In this Creditors Clerk Job in Stellenbosch, you will own the accounts-payable cycle for a portion of Mediclinic’s large supplier base — from invoice receipt through reconciliation to authorised payment. Accuracy and timeliness are central: suppliers must be paid correctly and on time to keep the hospital network supplied and relationships healthy.

Your key responsibilities include processing and capturing supplier invoices and credit notes accurately on the ERP system, reconciling supplier statements against the accounts-payable ledger, and resolving invoice and payment queries with suppliers and internal departments. You will prepare payment runs and ensure all payments are correctly authorised, maintaining a clean audit trail throughout.

You will also maintain accurate creditor records and the filing of invoices and remittances, and assist with the month-end accounts-payable close and reconciliation. Ensuring compliance with Mediclinic’s financial policies and payment terms underpins everything — in a large, governed finance environment, process discipline protects both the business and its suppliers.

The position suits a numerate, detail-oriented finance professional with strong reconciliation skills who can meet month-end deadlines in a high-volume environment. With SAP or ERP experience and a creditors background, it offers a solid step in a corporate finance career.

Creditors and accounts-payable roles are the dependable backbone of any large finance team. Paying suppliers accurately and on time keeps a business supplied and its relationships healthy, so a strong creditors clerk is genuinely valued — the work rewards precision, reconciliation discipline, and steady deadline delivery.
