Description
Role: Accounts Receivable Specialist - Government Collections
This position focuses on Accounts Receivable collections specifically within the federal government sector. While the role remains AR-based, it is more complex due to limited direct customer communication and a primary reliance on government vendor portals. Responsibilities include submitting invoices for payment, resolving disputes, and processing claims through these portals. The specialist will collaborate closely with internal teams-including Sales Management, Pricing, Contracts, Posting, and Order Entry-to investigate and resolve issues that delay payment.
Requirements:
- Prior experience with government collections is strongly preferred
- Proven ability to manage a high-dollar, high-volume AR portfolio (several million dollars or more)
- Experience using vendor portals for invoicing and payment collection
- Comfortable collecting without direct customer interaction
- Strong multitasking capabilities
- Highly developed research and analytical skills
- Effective collaborator who works well with cross-functional internal teams
- Solution-oriented problem solver
- Creative thinker; capable of identifying non-obvious solutions
- Backgrounds in contract review, insurance claims, medical billing, or similar fields translate well to this role due to the strong attention to detail required
- Experience with SAP or a comparable ERP system is a plus
Interview Process: Interview availability is flexible Interviews will be conducted virtually
