Core Responsibilities and Key Performance Objectives

• Manage the full AR cycle: generate and issue customer invoices in NetSuite, including multi-element and milestone billing, and monitor aging to resolve collections issues proactively.
• Manage the full AP cycle: process vendor invoices in NetSuite and Bill.com, ensure three-way match against POs and receipts, and run weekly payment cycles (ACH, wire, check).
• Reconcile vendor statements and customer accounts, resolving discrepancies before they become close-day surprises.
• Prepare AR and AP subledger reconciliations to the general ledger and record accruals for unbilled receivables and unpaid vendor invoices as part of the monthly close checklist.
• Maintain vendor and customer master data, including W-9 collection and 1099 tracking.

• Learn the month-end close calendar and your specific reconciliation and accrual responsibilities within it.

• Contribute clean, audit-ready AR/AP subledger reconciliations each close cycle.

• Stakeholder Management: Engage clearly with customers, vendors, and internal partners like the Controller. Provide concise, well-timed updates and follow established decision-making processes.

• Hands-on experience with NetSuite or a comparable ERP.
• Working knowledge of month-end close processes, account reconciliations, and basic accrual accounting.
