Job Description

Share Share Email Post Share About Bart's Electric Bart's Electric is a full-service commercial electrical and special systems contractor headquartered in Liberty, MO, with a reputation for reliability and service that sets us apart in the industry. Our philosophy is simple - we give the customer more service than they paid for. We're a merit shop built on the idea that we build people: we invest in our team, promote on performance and dedication, and back it up with industry-leading training, certification, and leadership development. Safety is our top priority, and our record reflects it. Position Summary We're looking for a detail-oriented Accounts Receivable Clerk to join our accounting team in Liberty, MO. This role owns billing and collections for construction projects, works heavily in Excel, and handles the day-to-day paperwork that keeps our receivables clean - compliance documents like Certificates of Insurance and Lien Waivers, high-volume data entry, and steady follow-up with customers. You'll work closely with Accounts Payable and Payroll to keep the accounting team running smoothly. Key Responsibilities
  • Billing & collections: Invoice customers, follow up on outstanding balances, and work with clients to resolve payment issues or arrange payment plans.
  • Compliance documentation: Track and process Certificates of Insurance (COI) and Lien Waivers for construction projects.
  • Data entry: Accurately enter and maintain high volumes of billing, payment, and account data in the accounting system.
  • Cash application: Collect and post customer payments, and reconcile accounts receivable records.
Reporting:
Maintain spreadsheets and reports on account status, aging, and collections activity.
  • Account maintenance: Update client account and contact information as needed.
  • Vendor credits: Follow up on outstanding credits due from vendors.
  • Reconciliation support: Assist with monthly reconciliation of AP statements from vendors.
Collaboration:
Support Accounts Payable and Payroll as needed and pitch in on other accounting tasks as assigned. Qualifications Required
  • Background in the construction industry preferred.
  • Strong Excel skills - this role is Excel-heavy.
  • Billing and collections experience.
  • Comfortable with a high volume of data entry.
  • 3-5 years of accounts receivable or general accounting experience preferred; will consider strong candidates with 1-3 years.
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Regular, predictable, and punctual attendance. Preferred
  • Accounting degree a plus, but not required.
  • Experience with Certificates of Insurance (COI) and Lien Waivers.
  • Experience with Spectrum accounting software - not required if you've worked in a comparable system.
  • Experience with construction billing and AIA documents. Work Environment
  • Office-based in Liberty, MO.
  • Standard office hours, with heavier data entry and follow-up volume around billing cycles.
What We Offer Competitive pay (DOE) and a generous benefits package - Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO, six paid holidays, and a 401(k) with generous match - plus performance-based bonuses and real room to grow in a merit shop that promotes on contribution, not tenure. Bart's Electric is an equal opportunity employer. We never discriminate based on race, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, or marital, veteran, or disability status.
