ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ACCOUNTANT

Department: Accounting | Employment Type: Full-Time | Experience Level: 5–7 Years

Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced Accounts Receivable Accountant to join our Accounting team. This position reports directly to the Accounting Manager. Within our decentralized billing model, this role supports the billing process rather than performing customer billing directly — issuing invoice numbers, reconciling invoice logs, monitoring aging, and coordinating closely with field personnel across our construction projects. The ideal candidate brings strong AR expertise along with a working knowledge of general accounting and is comfortable supporting both percentage-of-completion and reimbursable/cost-plus contract types.

Key Responsibilities

• Issue and track invoice numbers for field and project personnel in support of the decentralized billing process

• Reconcile invoice logs across projects and business units to ensure accuracy, completeness, and visibility into unbilled items

• Research and resolve invoicing discrepancies, billing questions, cash application issues, and collection-related items in a timely manner

• Prepare and send cash receipt notifications to appropriate internal stakeholders

• Support billing and reporting for both percentage-of-completion and reimbursable/cost-plus contract types

• Compile and provide supporting documentation for internal and external audits

• Assist with general accounting duties as needed, including account reconciliations and month-end close support

• Collaborate cross-functionally with project personnel and the broader Accounting team on project reporting and reconciliation activities

Qualifications

• 5–7 years of experience in accounts receivable, including responsibility for AR aging, customer billing support, invoice tracking, and collections follow-up

• Working knowledge of general accounting principles, account reconciliations, and month-end close support

• Demonstrated ability to reconcile AR subledger activity to the general ledger, research variances, and resolve differences independently

• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookup functions, and working with large data sets

• Hands-on experience with a mid-market or enterprise ERP system

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with field and project personnel

• High attention to detail with strong organizational, analytical, and reconciliation skills

• Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities in a decentralized, fast-paced environment

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred, or equivalent combination of education and experience

• Experience in construction, engineering, or another project-based industry strongly preferred

• Familiarity with percentage-of-completion and reimbursable/cost-plus contract accounting preferred
