Why This Role Matters

As our Accounts Receivable Specialist, you'll own a portfolio of B2B and B2C accounts — some straightforward, some genuinely complicated. You'll be the person who catches credit risk early, negotiates repayment plans that actually work, and keeps disputes from turning into write-offs. This isn't a back-office, process-the-paperwork role: you'll work directly with sales, customer service, and finance to solve problems that affect the company's bottom line.

What You'll Do

 • Make collection calls and follow up on past-due accounts with customers directly.

 • Own day-to-day credit evaluation for your portfolio, with support from your manager.

 • Assess credit exposure for new and existing customers using D&B reports and other data, and apply that analysis to sound open-credit-term decisions.

 • Investigate and resolve disputed accounts receivable in partnership with sales and customer service.

 • Keep customer account information current and accurate in the system.

 • Process credit card payments through our accounting systems.

 • Manage dunning and escalate serious delinquency issues appropriately.

 • Troubleshoot outstanding account issues and drive them to resolution.

 • Review and approve or hold orders using sound judgment on customer risk.

 • Apply Lock Box payments and reconcile customer accounts.

 • Process customer refunds and maintain accurate filing records.
