This contract opportunity with permanent potential is ideal for someone who brings strong experience across receivables, payables support, and daily cash activity within a fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:
- Apply incoming payments accurately to customer invoices and accounts while keeping cash activity current and properly documented.
- Investigate payment discrepancies such as pricing variances, return-related issues, and quantity differences, then work toward timely resolution.

- Retrieve remittance details through customer portals and use that information to update account activity and payment records.
- Manage daily treasury-related tasks, including reviewing bank activity, maintaining cash logs, and posting deposits without delay.
- Review vendor invoices for accuracy, enter them promptly, and assign expense coding in alignment with internal accounting practices.
- Prepare daily sales-related reporting, adjust invoices when freight or other charges need to be updated, and issue customer credit memos while maintaining supporting logs.
- Assist with payment processing activities, including credit card transactions, payment proposals, and journal entry preparation as needed.
- Partner with Sales, Customer Service, Shipping, and other internal groups to accelerate collections, strengthen customer communication, and address account concerns.
- Provide broader accounting and administrative support in other functional areas when business needs require it.
