We are looking for an Accounts Receivable Specialist to join a team in Bellevue, Washington in a contract-to-permanent capacity. This role supports the full receivables cycle, including collections, cash activity, billing coordination, and credit-related decisions, while helping protect the company's financial interests. The ideal candidate brings sound accounting knowledge, strong judgment when handling customer accounts, and the ability to work effectively with both internal partners and external stakeholders to resolve payment issues.

Responsibilities:

• Manage commercial accounts receivable activities by monitoring outstanding balances, applying payments, and maintaining accurate account records.
• Investigate past-due balances, disputed invoices, and account discrepancies, using proactive follow-up to drive timely resolution and payment.
• Partner with customers, contractors, owners, and internal sales contacts to address complex collection matters while balancing revenue goals with credit risk.
• Review credit holds, recommend appropriate release decisions, and escalate significant exposure or legal concerns to credit leadership when necessary.
• Process routine account adjustments such as minor service charge or sales tax corrections, and refer higher-risk exceptions for management review.
• Assess project-related account details by confirming ownership, license validity, account standing, and the correct contractor or subcontractor structure.
• Support lien and bond claim activity by gathering project information, coordinating communication with involved parties, and helping prepare timely next steps.
• Recommend stronger recovery actions, including legal escalation, when collection efforts indicate elevated risk or limited likelihood of payment.
• Handle sensitive financial information with discretion and maintain clear, effective communication across all interactions.
