Operating with a high degree of independence, the AR Lead partners closely with cross-functional teams, manages escalations, and maintains momentum across all AR workflows.

This role also plays a key part in driving process improvements, leveraging automation and AI-enabled ERP tools to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and control.

What Success Looks Like in this Role:

Billing Ownership & Accuracy

• Own the end-to-end invoicing lifecycle, including validation of billing inputs, invoice generation, and timely issuance aligned with contract terms and internal policies.
• Maintain a consistent invoicing cadence and proactively resolve billing discrepancies within defined SLAs.
• Ensure all billing documentation, schedules, and supporting records are complete, accurate, and audit-ready.

Collections Leadership & Execution

• Lead structured collections efforts, including monitoring AR aging, executing follow-up cadences, and resolving overdue balances.
• Identify collection risks early and drive clear, actionable steps to mitigate them.
• Manage customer communications professionally, balancing relationship management with cash collection priorities.

Cash Application Oversight & AR Integrity

• Oversee accurate and timely application of customer payments, ensuring prompt resolution of unapplied cash and discrepancies.
• Perform regular customer account reconciliations and investigate variances to maintain accurate AR subledger balances.
• Ensure AR data integrity and readiness for internal and external audits.

Reporting, KPIs & Working Capital Optimization

• Prepare AR aging, collections status, cash receipts, and KPI reporting for leadership.
• Highlight trends, risks, and opportunities to improve DSO and overall cash flow.
• Provide insights and recommendations that support strategic working capital initiatives.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Stakeholder Management

• Serve as the primary point of contact for internal and external billing and payment inquiries.
• Partner with Sales Operations, Client Services, and Corporate Accounting to resolve issues and remove barriers to timely cash collection.
• Coordinate effectively with global teams and support cross-time-zone collaboration to maintain operational continuity.

Controls, Compliance & Process Improvement

• Ensure adherence to internal controls, audit requirements, and documentation standards.
• Identify control gaps and propose enhancements to strengthen AR governance.
• Document and maintain standard operating procedures to support consistent AR execution.

AI, Automation & Continuous Improvement

• Leverage AI-enabled ERP features and automation tools to improve billing accuracy, collections efficiency, and reconciliation workflows.
• Evaluate AR processes regularly to identify opportunities for simplification, standardization, and automation.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to implement scalable improvements that enhance efficiency and reduce manual effort.

The Capabilities and Skills that Matter:

• 5+ years of progressive experience in accounts receivable, billing operations, and collections (lead or senior-level ownership preferred).
  
• Experience in a multi-entity, multi-currency, or global environment is an asset.
  
• Strong understanding of AR processes, collections best practices, and financial controls.
  
• Advanced Excel skills for reconciliations, aging analysis, and reporting.
  
• Experience with ERP and billing systems such as Campfire, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Microsoft Dynamics, or similar.
  
• Excellent communication skills with a customer-service mindset and the ability to manage escalations professionally.
  
• Proven ability to work independently, prioritize competing deadlines, and drive outcomes with minimal oversight.
