Summary:

The Senior Analyst, Accounts Receivable owns the end-to-end receivables lifecycle for a portfolio of OEM and Tier 1 customer accounts - from credit assessment and invoicing accuracy through collections, deduction resolution, cash application, and reserve analysis. This is the senior individual-contributor role on the AR team, and the technical escalation point for the organization’s most complex accounts.

Automotive receivables are distinct from general commercial AR. Customers dictate payment terms and remittance formats, invoice through EDI and self-billing (ERS) arrangements, settle via consolidated payments with limited remittance detail, and deduct unilaterally for premium freight, quality escapes, packaging non-compliance, warranty, tooling, and annual price productivity adjustments under long-term agreements. Success in this role requires fluency in that environment and the ability to work directly with OEM supplier portals and with purchasing, quality, logistics, and program management to resolve disputes at the root cause rather than the transaction.

Beyond transaction ownership, the Senior Analyst is expected to improve the process: automate manual reconciliation, strengthen controls, build reporting management uses, and mentor junior analysts.

Responsibilities:

Collections and Portfolio Management

  • Own collections for an assigned portfolio of OEM and Tier 1 accounts, including the highest-exposure and most complex customers.
  • Monitor aging daily; execute a structured escalation cadence from AP contact through customer purchasing, supplier finance, and internal sales and program leadership.
  • Reconcile customer-maintained open item statements and supplier portal balances to the ERP subledger, identifying variances driven by EDI 810/820 mismatches, price discrepancies, and unposted remittances.

Cash Application and Month-End Close

  • Oversee timely and accurate cash application, including consolidated OEM payments requiring remittance decomposition across hundreds of invoices.
  • Resolve unapplied and on-account cash; drive the unapplied balance toward zero at close.

Systems, Reporting and Process Improvement

  • Act as AR power user and functional owner within the ERP (CMS – EPICOR) including customer master governance, credit management configuration input, and dispute management workflow.
  • Administer and transact within OEM supplier portals and EDI channels - GM SupplyPower, Ford Supplier Portal, Stellantis eSupplierConnect, Toyota and Honda supplier systems - and reconcile self-billing (ERS) settlements against shipped quantities and contract pricing.
  • Identify and lead process improvement initiatives across the order-to-cash cycle - deduction workflow automation, collections prioritization logic, remittance parsing, customer self-service - and quantify benefit in cycle time, DSO, or hours recovered.
  • Participate in system implementations, upgrades, and new customer onboarding: requirements definition, EDI mapping validation, UAT, and cutover reconciliation.

Leadership, Mentoring and Business Partnership

  • Build working relationships with plant controllers, quality, logistics, customer service, sales, and program management to drive upstream fixes to receivables issues.
  • Represent AR in cross-functional launch reviews and customer business reviews.
  • Deputize for the AR Manager as needed.

Qualifications:

Required

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field. Equivalent experience considered in lieu of a degree.
  • Experience: 5+ years of progressive accounts receivable, credit, or collections experience, including at least 2 years supporting manufacturing customers. Direct OEM or Tier 1 automotive receivables experience strongly preferred.
  • Systems: Hands-on ERP experience in AR (Epicor - CMS). Advanced Excel required - pivot tables, XLOOKUP/INDEX-MATCH, SUMIFS, Power Query, large-dataset reconciliation.
  • Accounting: Working knowledge of US GAAP as it applies to revenue, receivables, credit losses, and reserves; familiarity with internal controls and SOX requirements.
  • Analysis: Proven ability to reconcile high-volume transactional data, identify root causes, and translate findings into recommendations management can act on.
  • Communication: Ability to hold firm, professional commercial conversations with customer finance and purchasing contacts while protecting customer relationships.

Preferred

  • Experience with EDI transaction sets relevant to order-to-cash (810 invoice, 820 remittance, 856 ASN, 862/830 releases) and with self-billing / evaluated receipts settlement.
  • Direct experience in various OEM supplier portals.
  • Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Alteryx, or Python for reporting automation.
  • Experience in a shared services or multi-plant environment, and with international receivables, VAT, and multi-currency settlement.
