Overview

We are seeking a detail-oriented and reliable Cash Applications Accounts Receivable Clerk to join our accounting team. This role is primarily responsible for handling customer payments, accurately applying payments to open invoices, and maintaining the integrity of our receivables ledger. You’ll also audit peer work, process virtual credit card payments, and provide direct support to the AR Manager.

This is a role for someone who takes pride in staying on top of the details, thrives on getting things done right the first time, and understands that accuracy and speed go hand in hand.
