About the role
We are looking for an Accounts Receivable Specialist to support day-to-day receivables operations for a long-term contract assignment in Burlington, New Jersey. This position focuses on applying payments accurately, managing customer billing activity, and following up on outstanding commercial accounts. The ideal candidate brings a detail-oriented approach, strong organizational skills, and the ability to keep account records current while working in a fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities:
Process incoming payments and post cash receipts to customer accounts with a high level of accuracy.
Review account activity, investigate payment discrepancies, and resolve unapplied or misapplied cash items.
Monitor aging reports and conduct commercial collections outreach to secure timely payment on open balances.
Prepare and issue customer invoices while ensuring billing details align with contractual or order information.
Reconcile receivable balances and maintain clear documentation for account adjustments, credits, and payment activity.
Collaborate with internal teams to address billing questions, account issues, and exceptions that affect collections.
Track daily cash activity and help maintain accurate records for reporting and account status updates.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
