• Accurately apply and reconcile customer payments.
• Support financial close activities related to accounts receivable, such as account reconciliations, cash application, audit requests, and other accounting activities.
• Proactively identify, suggest, and implement opportunities to improve invoicing, collections, payment processing, and A/R controls.
• Demonstrate flexibility and a willingness to take on responsibilities outside of traditional Accounts Receivable activities in a high growth environment.
• Own and manage technical integrations and workflows, related to A/R.

Qualifications

• Strong verbal communication skills with the confidence and professionalism necessary to conduct challenging collection conversations.
• Excellent written communication skills with the ability to communicate clearly and professionally with customers and internal stakeholders.
• 3+ years of professional Accounts Receivable, collections, or related accounting experience.
• High level of accuracy and attention to detail.
