Accounts Receivable Specialist

You know how to keep outstanding accounts from becoming forgotten accounts. You’re comfortable picking up the phone, getting to the bottom of an issue, and following through until there’s a clear next step.

As an Accounts Receivable Specialist with SERVPRO, you’ll put those skills to work managing customer accounts from invoice through payment or escalation. You’ll work directly with customers and other responsible parties, maintain accurate account information, resolve issues that may be causing delays, and help keep receivables moving.

You’ll also have the opportunity to use your judgment and problem-solving skills when an account needs attention, working with the people involved to understand what’s happening and find a way forward. It’s a role that gives you real ownership of your accounts and the chance to put your experience to good use.
