Job description

To thrive as a company and meet our impact goals, we must cultivate a culture of high-performance. You can read about our culture principles here.

We know managers are often the single-largest driver of employee satisfaction and growth, and our talent is our biggest asset. Because of that, we’ve identified consistent expectations for all of Guild’s people managers — helping you know what to expect from your experience here.

As a Billing Analyst at Guild, you'll manage billing and payment operations across our marketplace — ensuring tuition, revenue, and employer benefit dollars move accurately and on time. You'll investigate root causes of payment discrepancies, navigate complex partner scenarios, and drive process improvements and AI-enabled solutions that increase the team's capacity over time.

As a Billing Analyst you will:

• Proactively analyze and resolve aged receivables, unapplied credits, and open invoices while leading collections escalations across Partner accounts to recover outstanding tuition and revenue share funds.
• Review new partner contracts for billing variances and manage the full onboarding/offboarding lifecycle, including invoicing setup, task coordination, and accurate documentation.
• Manage end-to‑to‑end cash application operations, including check processing, audit‑ready recordkeeping, and compliance with Guild's internal control standards.
• Proactively identify and drive opportunities for process optimization, automation, and documentation improvements that increase efficiency and accuracy across billing operations.
• Champion the adoption of AI‑assisted solutions to reduce manual effort and improve team capacity, actively experimenting with tools and contributing ideas for greater operational efficiency.
• Ensure accurate and timely processing of tuition, revenue, and employer benefit dollars across Guild's marketplace, maintaining effective approval processes and distributing invoices and partner files through the correct mechanisms.
• Investigate and resolve partner and internal stakeholder inquiries related to invoicing, payments, and billing discrepancies with accuracy and professionalism, joining external partner calls as a subject‑matter expert when needed.
• Contribute to time‑sensitive cross‑functional projects that require a high level of execution and attention to detail.

You are a strong fit for this role if you have:

• Degree in Finance, Accounting, or other mathematical or technical area(s), or 5+ years of relevant work experience in a detail‑oriented environment with high expectations of precision
• A self‑starter demeanor with proven time‑management skills and the ability to work independently, while managing multiple work streams in a fast‑paced, evolving work environment
• Analytical, detailed, and process‑oriented tendencies
• Comfort collaborating with others - both internally and externally to execute on billing enablement
• A drive to problem‑solve and to resolve issues and incidents
• Experience working with a billing / payment system (potentially in a financial or healthcare environment) that requires near perfect execution; NetSuite experience preferred
• Intermediate to advanced Excel and/or Gsheet knowledge
• A desire to perform and maintain high standards of work & accuracy
• Experience with AI tools and AI‑assisted solutions that reduce manual effort and improve team effectiveness.
• Something else? Wonderful, we’re curious to learn more about you!
