We are looking for a Collections Specialist to join our team in Boca Raton, Florida in a contract capacity with the potential for a long-term opportunity. This role is ideal for a detail-focused individual who can manage business-to-business collections with confidence, communicate effectively with customers and internal teams, and keep account activity organized and current.

Responsibilities:

• Manage an assigned portfolio of accounts and drive collection efforts to support monthly and annual delinquency targets, with attention to balances that are more than 60 days past due.

• Prepare clear and timely updates for aging reports to help support accurate weekly reviews and month-end reporting.
• Partner with the AR Manager by providing regular credit hold updates and helping facilitate account release when payment issues are resolved.
• Identify higher-risk accounts, investigate ongoing payment concerns, and escalate matters to the AR Manager when outside collection placement should be considered.
• Reconcile account balances and supporting details when evaluating write-offs or third-party collection decisions.
• Respond promptly to customer emails and manage internal and external case or ticket requests within required service expectations.
• Handle a mix of mid-sized accounts as well as key customer accounts while maintaining consistency and professionalism in follow-up.
• Perform additional accounts receivable and collection-related duties as needed to support team objectives.
