Restoration 1 is a water, fire, and mold damage restoration company and part of a national franchise network of 150+ locations. We operate three Chicago-area locations — Lincoln Park, Winnetka, and Chicago North Shore — helping homeowners and businesses recover from property damage with speed, quality, and care.

We’re a growing small business where your work has a direct, visible impact. There’s no bureaucracy here: you’ll work alongside the owner and leadership team every day.

We’re hiring an Accounts Receivable Specialist to own our collections function end to end. This is the engine room of the business — you’ll make sure invoices go out accurately, follow‑up happens consistently, and cash comes in on time.

The right person is persistent, organized, and comfortable on the phone. You don’t mind making the third or fourth follow‑up call, and you take pride in closing out an account. Restoration billing involves homeowners, property managers, and insurance adjusters, so you’ll need to be equally comfortable with a friendly reminder call and a firm, professional escalation.

• Log every touchpoint with detailed collection notes in AR Workflow and Quick Books
