  • Investigate aging reports to identify collection issues and determine appropriate next steps.
  • Partner with internal teams to resolve billing discrepancies and remove barriers to payment.
  • Reconcile customer accounts across multiple systems to ensure accurate balances and payment records.
  • Apply cash receipts and post customer payments accurately and promptly.
  • Maintain detailed records of collection activities, customer communications, disputes, and payment commitments.
  • Track collection progress, escalate unresolved accounts, and provide updates on outstanding balances.
  • Assist with AR cleanup initiatives by researching and resolving aged or unapplied items.
  • Support month-end AR reconciliations and reporting as needed.

Qualifications

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of hands-on accounts receivable and/or collections experience.
  • Experience following up on past-due invoices and resolving outstanding customer balances.
  • Comfortable making collection calls and conducting frequent customer outreach.
  • Proven ability to research payment discrepancies and resolve account-level issues.
  • Strong understanding of AR aging, account reconciliations, and cash application.
  • Ability to independently manage a high volume of accounts and prioritize collection efforts.
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred

  • Experience with B2B collections.
  • Familiarity with ERP systems and working across multiple platforms.
  • Experience in a large, multi-entity, or complex business environment.
  • Previous involvement in AR cleanup, aged receivables recovery, or systems migration projects.
