• Monitor internal workflows to ensure adherence to invoicing timelines and help prevent liquidated damages (LD) due to delays.
• Review supporting documents from operations and procurement teams to ensure billing completeness.
• Maintain billing compliance logs, master trackers, and audit trails in line with internal policies and client expectations.
• Mentor junior invoicing executives and provide peer review support to improve accuracy and response time.
• Collaborate with finance, legal, and operations teams on reconciliations, corrections, and process improvement initiatives.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications & Skills

• 6 10 years of experience in invoicing, billing, or finance operations, ideally in maritime, defence contracting, or logistics.
• Strong understanding of government invoicing protocols, compliance standards, and supporting documentation.
• High proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including reconciliation and template management.
• Clear, concise communication skills written and spoken with clients and internal teams.
• Demonstrated ability to manage invoicing timelines, especially in contracts where delay penalties apply.
• Familiarity with ERP or billing systems is preferred (e.g., SAP, Oracle, MS Dynamics).
• Ability to manage multiple priorities with minimal supervision and maintain data integrity under pressure.
