  • Create and submit invoices according to company practices; assist in generating monthly billing statements
  • Prepare, post, verify, and record customer payments and transactions in the ERP/AR system
  • Maintain and update customer records, including account setup, name/address changes, and mergers
  • Draft correspondence for standard past-due accounts and collections
  • Analyze account behavior and aging reports to identify high-risk accounts and recommend escalations or write-offs
  • Collaborate with management to prepare reports on collection performance, aging analysis, and customer account status
  • Assist with monthly and year-end closings, including journal entries, accruals validation, and revenue account reconciliations
  • Assist in developing and refining collection workflows and policies to improve cash flow and reduce Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)
  • Perform other related duties as assigned

Qualifications, Experience & Skills

  • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance or Business Administration preferred
  • Minimum 2–5 years of experience in accounts receivable, credit, or collections (freight forwarding or logistics industry preferred)

  • Strong understanding of AR processes, collections strategies, and financial reporting
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and customer service skills
  • Ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment and manage shifting priorities
  • High attention to detail, organizational skills, and analytical thinking
