Job Description:
We are seeking an Accounts Receivable Analyst who is eager to move beyond basic data entry and transactional tasks.

- Assist with payment matching, collections activities, and cash application research when required.
- Organize and preserve thorough billing records and all necessary compliance documentation.
- Track aging accounts receivable reports to pinpoint and escalate collection concerns early.
Contract Administration & System Management
- Support the implementation and ongoing maintenance of client agreements and new projects within the Workday ERP platform.
- Evaluate client contracts to confirm that billing structures, hourly rates, timelines, and client data match system inputs.
- Coordinate with internal operations and accounting units to resolve missing or conflicting contract details.
- Implement system modifications in Workday whenever contract amendments or billing terms evolve.
- Keep contract onboarding checklists updated and fully documented.
Analytical Support & Process Optimization
- Master the end-to-end order-to-cash workflow to identify bottleneck areas and improve internal control efficiency.
- Leverage advanced data tools and financial software to audit account histories and build recurring financial reports.
- Participate in initiatives aimed at scaling billing and revenue operations as the company upgrades its financial infrastructure.
- Accept advanced accounting tasks and special projects as your technical knowledge matures.
Qualifications:
- Professional Experience: 1–2 years of background working in corporate billing, accounts receivable, project finance, or administrative accounting.
- Analytical Skills: Strong attention to detail with an understanding of how data entry impacts upstream financial reporting.
- Time Management: Proven ability to balance multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
- Interpersonal Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills to effectively collaborate across cross-functional departments.
- Critical Thinking: A proactive approach to troubleshooting discrepancies and researching root causes independently.
- Technical Aptitude: Foundational to intermediate proficiency in Microsoft Excel; previous exposure to Workday or a similar enterprise resource planning (ERP) system is highly preferred.
- Education: An Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or a related field is preferred.
- Industry Background: Prior experience navigating a project-based corporate structure or professional services firm is a major plus.
Perks:
- Direct mentorship from senior financial leadership
- Clear pathways for internal promotion and career advancement
- Exposure to modern ERP software (Workday)
