Your Role as an AP/AR Team Lead

You’ll be leading the charge in making sure our Accounts Payable and Receivable operations flow like clockwork.

• Supervise timely billing, collections, and cash application
• Monitor AR aging reports and lead collection efforts
• Manage reconciliation of customer accounts and AR sub-ledger
• Coordinate Coles shortfall calculation and assist with BI sales reports

Team Leadership:

• Foster a culture of accountability, feedback, and continuous learning
• Promote open communication and best practices within the team

Finance Operations & Reporting:

• Document and optimize finance workflows and internal controls for efficiency

• In-depth knowledge of AP and AR processes in high-volume settings
• Reconciliation ninja skills and a sixth sense for data accuracy
• Top-notch time management and problem-solving ability
• Communication skills that make finance sound human
• Intermediate to advanced Excel skills (formulas, not just formatting!)
