- You'll reconcile ledgers, monitor incoming payments, and catch billing discrepancies before they become bigger problems
- Perform in-depth reviews of credit line requests and evaluate credit worthiness
- When your accounts need attention, you'll reach out to your customers across the world with clarity and professionalism, using escalation SLAs and data to resolve payment issues quickly
- Evaluate daily customer shipment blocks, verify discrepancies, resolve billing issues, and release holds or escalate as appropriate
- Provide exceptional customer service by responding promptly and professionally to customer inquiries and concerns
- Support customer record maintenance
- Prepare documentation and provide support for month-end close activities and audit-related requests, including ICC or ICFR support as needed
- You'll generate meaningful reports that tell the story of your portfolio

- Real financial expertise: Develop a deep understanding of accounts receivable and credit risk management at a Fortune 250 company

- Cross-functional exposure: Work with multiple teams and gain insights into how sales, operations, pricing, accounting, audit, and finance interconnect
