Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in billing, freight audit, revenue operations, finance operations, or carrier/forwarder back‑office functions.
• Experience in environments such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT, freight forwarding, e‑commerce, logistics, telecommunications, or shared service centers is preferred.
• Proven ability to own processes end to end, including building, improving, troubleshooting, and documenting billing or reconciliation workflows.

• Dispute incorrect carrier charges, maintain detailed records of open disputes, follow up persistently, and ensure agreed credits are received.
• Ensure all legitimate carrier charges are accurately re-billed to the appropriate customers and monitor open billing items to prevent carrier costs from remaining uncollected.
• Take ownership of customer-side billing, including shipment and service invoicing, credits, refunds, dunning, and collection of outstanding customer balances.
• Manage day-to-day communication with carrier billing and account teams and prepare data and analysis to support carrier rate negotiations.
• Define requirements and priorities for the internal billing module and collaborate with software developers on specifications, testing, implementation, and rollout.
