AR Specialist

As the sole owner of accounts receivable, this person will manage the entire AR cycle end to end, including:

• Billing: Generate and issue customer invoices accurately and on schedule.
• Collections: Manage the full collections process, following up on past-due accounts to keep aging current.
• Cash Application: Apply incoming payments to open invoices accurately and in a timely manner.
• Cash Receipts Processing: Process and reconcile daily cash receipts.
• Deduction & Claims Management: Investigate, resolve, and process customer deductions and related claims — this is a heavy, high-volume part of the role. All deductions must be researched and closed out within 5 business days.
• Cross-Training: Work closely with the departing AR Specialist ahead of their 10/1 exit to absorb process knowledge, account nuances, and key customer relationships as thoroughly as possible.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 3+ years of full-cycle accounts receivable experience (billing, collections, cash application, and deductions).
• Advanced Excel skills required.
• Net Suite experience strongly preferred, but not required.
• Comfortable working independently as the sole AR contact in a high-volume, fast-paced environment.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to meet firm turnaround deadlines, particularly the 5-business-day deduction resolution requirement.
