• Address and resolve billing discrepancies and issues swiftly, minimizing impact on customers and internal operations while raising complex issues as needed.
• Serve as the primary point of escalation for billing-related inquiries, ensuring SLAs for issue resolution are consistently met.
• Prepare and review monthly reports and key performance indicators, ensuring that all data is validated before sharing.
• Find opportunities for continuous improvement within billing processes, focusing on enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and automation.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with teams in finance, sales, and billing support to ensure smooth and effective operations.
