Accounting Clerk

We are looking for a detail-oriented Accounting Clerk to join a busy logistics operation in Blue Ash, Ohio in a contract capacity with the potential for a permanent role. This position supports the financial and documentation flow behind a high-volume transportation environment, helping ensure invoices, carrier records, and supporting paperwork are accurate and processed on time. The ideal candidate is comfortable working onsite in a fast-paced setting, communicating with internal teams and external partners, and resolving discrepancies before they delay payment or billing.

Responsibilities:

• Review transportation and billing documents for accuracy, including bills of lading and gate-related records, to support timely invoice processing.
• Partner with brokers to keep shipment paperwork moving efficiently and prevent open items from delaying carrier payments or customer billing.
• Examine reports and account details to identify missing documents, unresolved invoice issues, and aging items that require follow-up.
• Perform spot checks across a high volume of transactions and investigate exceptions to resolve payment or documentation problems.
• Communicate with factoring partners regarding invoice and payment status, including expected release timelines.
• Monitor open payables for carriers and follow up on outstanding invoices or incomplete files to maintain accurate records.
• Upload and organize required documentation in internal systems so financial and shipment records remain complete and accessible.
• Reach out to customers or related contacts when additional support is needed to obtain missing paperwork or clarify account issues.
