Our client is looking for a detail-obsessed, numbers-loving Accounts Receivable Clerk to join their finance team and help keep cash flowing smoothly.
If you're someone who takes pride in clean ledgers, loves tracking down payments, and gets a little thrill from a perfectly matched deposit—this could be your next professional home.

In this role, you'll be on the front lines of incoming cash flow — posting payments, handling customer questions, and partnering with internal teams to make sure everything is accurate, on time, and well-documented.


Accounts Receivable Clerk Responsibilities:

  • Processing high-volume customer payments — lockbox, ACH, checks, and wires — with accuracy and speed

  • Applying cash to customer accounts and resolving unapplied or misapplied payments

  • Communicating with customers to research payment discrepancies and ensure timely resolution

  • Creating and updating AR aging reports and assisting with collections follow-up as needed

  • Supporting month-end close by preparing AR reconciliations and account summaries

  • Working cross-functionally with sales, customer service, and billing to confirm invoice and payment details

  • Maintaining customer records with precision in ERP systems (bonus if you've used Dynamics SL or something similar)

  • Helping out the broader finance team with reporting or admin tasks when needed — team mindset required!


Accounts Receivable Clerk Requirements:

  • Associate degree in Accounting or related field (or equivalent experience)

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in an AR or cash applications role

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel — you’re confident with formulas, filters, and sorting

  • A natural problem-solver who loves digging into details

  • Strong communication skills — whether it’s with customers, coworkers, or over email

  • Dependable, self-motivated, and organized — you manage your own workload like a pro

If you are interested in the Accounts Receivable Clerk Role please apply today!
