Billing Coordinator

Billing Coordinator

Potomac, MD | On-site (First 90 Days) → Hybrid (After 90 Days)
Salary Range: $60,000 – $80,000
Type:
Full-Time | Permanent

Cherry Bekaert is partnering with a well-established professional services firm in the Washington, DC metro area to hire a Billing Coordinator for a permanent role on the accounting team. This position was created to support continued growth and will work closely with a Controller recently added to the team, helping ensure billing is accurate, timely, and responsive to internal needs.

In this role, you’ll support day-to-day billing operations in a collaborative, deadline-driven environment. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable partnering with multiple internal stakeholders to keep billing moving smoothly.

• Support the full billing lifecycle, including preparing, reviewing, editing, and distributing prebills/invoices in line with internal processes and client requirements.
• Coordinate billing workflows for internal stakeholders; respond to billing questions and help resolve invoice issues quickly and professionally.
• Audit billing inputs for accuracy (time entries, expenses, rate arrangements, and compliance with client guidelines), escalating exceptions as needed.
• Assist with electronic billing processes as applicable, including submission support and troubleshooting rejected invoices/discrepancies.
• Maintain organized billing documentation (billing arrangements, approvals, write-offs, and invoice records).
• Prepare basic billing and status reporting; support month-end close activities tied to invoicing and billing tracking.
• Contribute to process improvements that increase efficiency and help the billing function scale with growth.
• Handle sensitive financial information with discretion and professionalism.

• Prior billing experience required (professional services billing strongly preferred).
• Law firm billing experience is a plus, but not required.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage priorities in a deadline-driven environment.
• Professional communication skills and a service-oriented mindset when supporting internal stakeholders.
• College degree not required; some post-secondary education is helpful.

On-site for the first 90 days. Transition to hybrid thereafter (approximately two days per week remote).

This is a great opportunity to join a stable, reputable firm and step into a role that’s been created due to growth—working closely with leadership within the accounting function and helping strengthen billing operations.
