Accountant​/AR Analyst

Role: Accounts Receivable Analyst/ Accountant

Salary: $80, base

Location: Nassau County NY - Hybrid (4 days on-site)

We are seeking an Accounting-driven AR Analyst for a thriving manufacturing leader. This is not a basic collections role; we need a professional who understands the "General Ledger" side of Accounts Receivable. You will be responsible for subledger-to-GL reconciliations, intercompany clearing, and supporting month-end close.

• Accounting & Reconciliations: Own the reconciliation of the AR subledger to the General Ledger. You will be responsible for clearing intercompany balances and ensuring that all subledger "tie" perfectly during month, quarter, and year-end close.
• Month-End Support: Prepare and record complex transactions, including accruals, schedules, and reporting. You must have a mastery of debit/credit entries for credit memos, refunds, and the allowance for doubtful accounts.
• Intercompany Specialist: Manage the setup and reconciliation of intercompany AP/AR transactions. You will act as the point person for enforcing proper setup in customer master data to ensure seamless intercompany clearing.
• Strategic Collections & Analysis: Lead dunning activities for domestic and international accounts. Rather than just making calls, you will analyze aging reports (31+ days) to provide management with strategic insights into cash flow and risk.
• Credit &
  
  Risk Management:
  
  Review and release sales orders by evaluating customer credit limits and historical payment performance.
• Dispute Resolution: Conduct deep-dive research into payment irregularities, resolving complex billing inquiries and processing credit memos with high accuracy.
• Process Leadership: Utilize your ERP expertise (Oracle preferred) and advanced Excel skills to automate reporting and improve departmental efficiency.

• Experience: 5+ years of progressive experience in Accounts Receivable or Corporate Accounting.
• Accounting Depth: You must be able to accurately describe and execute the recording of refunds, credit memos, and debt.
• ERP Savvy: Direct experience with Oracle or a similar Tier-1 ERP system is preferred.
• Excel: Intermediate to advanced Excel skills are essential for data analysis and subledger-to-GL matching.
• Communication: Exceptional verbal and written skills; you must be able to collaborate effectively with Sales, Customer Service, and external global clients.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field is strongly preferred.
