This role is about more than managing receivables. It’s an opportunity to bring fresh thinking, strong leadership, and greater consistency to an important part of our business.

You’ll lead a high-volume AR operation while partnering closely with leaders across Briggs to improve cash performance, strengthen processes, and turn financial data into clear priorities. We’re looking for someone who can see the big picture while still being willing to dig into the details when it matters.

Most importantly, you’ll build trust and accountability within your team and across the business—creating an AR function that communicates well, works with purpose, and continues to get better.

• Lead and develop the AR team across collections, cash application, and credit activities, setting clear expectations while building a culture of communication, accountability, and growth.
• Oversee AR aging and cash performance, identifying priorities and partnering with branch, sales, finance, and senior leaders to resolve issues and keep receivables moving.
• Develop meaningful KPIs, forecasts, trend analysis, and executive reporting that turn a high volume of financial data into clear insights and actionable priorities.
• Improve and standardize AR processes, SOPs, technology, and automation while ensuring practices align with company policies, GAAP, and regulatory requirements.

• 5+ years of progressive accounts receivable experience, with strong knowledge of AR operations and meaningful experience across at least two of these areas: collections, cash application, and customer credit.
• A track record of improving AR performance, strengthening processes, and finding practical ways to improve cash flow, efficiency, and consistency.
• Strong, polished leadership and communication skills, with the confidence to work across all levels of the organization, build productive partnerships, and drive accountability.
• Demonstrated success improving cash collections and reducing aged receivables in a high-volume, multi-location environment.
• Experience managing disputes, deductions, credits, unapplied cash, account reconciliations, and other issues that prevent invoices from being collected.
• An organized and analytical mindset, with experience using ERP systems, Excel, reporting tools, and technology to turn financial data into clear recommendations. A bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or a related field is preferred.

• Experiences you’ve had to step into an AR function and improve performance.
• Your thought process to setting priorities, identifying risks, and keeping your team focused on the work that matters most.
• How you have turned complex AR data into reporting that leaders could understand and act on.
• Your leadership style -- how you create accountability, keep people motivated, strengthen communication, and lead a team through change.
