  • Partner with the Accounts Receivable team and clients to resolve short or over payments and clear unapplied cash.
  • Navigate and manage workload across multiple systems and tools efficiently.
  • Conduct timely follow-up on collection efforts to ensure payments are received as promised, escalating issues as needed.
  • Analyze and communicate potential credit risks identified during the collections process to management.
  • Recommend accounts for escalation, credit hold, or external collection placement when appropriate.
  • Assist with processing approved bad-debt write-offs and maintaining supporting documentation.
  • Generate and analyze reports to identify, track, and mitigate risks related to client accounts receivable and collections activity.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to resolve billing discrepancies and ensure accuracy across accounts.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to identify process improvements and support best practices within the collections function.
  • Maintain detailed, accurate records of collection activities within CRM and billing systems (e.g., Salesforce, NetSuite, Maxio).
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives in credit and collections processes.
  • Ensure all collection activities comply with company policies and applicable federal and state debt collection regulations

Requirements

  • Minimum of 3 years of experience in collections required; business-to-business (B2B) environment preferred.

  • Knowledge and Skills

  • Strong customer service orientation with a professional and empathetic communication style.
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to handle challenging client interactions effectively.
