This involves diligently monitoring account aging, spearheading proactive collection efforts, efficiently resolving customer discrepancies, and collaborating cross-functionally to reduce Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and optimize our cash conversion cycle.
• • A core duty will be the preparation and review of monthly balance sheet reconciliations, ensuring clear, audit-ready support and comprehensive documentation. You will be instrumental in improving existing workflows and standardizing workpapers to enhance consistency and efficiency.
• • You will provide crucial support for external audits and other diligence efforts by preparing well-organized support schedules and promptly responding to all auditor requests.
• • A significant part of this role involves identifying deficiencies in current accounting workflows and proactively implementing process enhancements and strengthening internal controls. This includes leveraging automation and improving documentation within NetSuite and associated systems.
• • You will cultivate and maintain an in-depth understanding of our financial systems. This expertise will enable you to independently research and resolve issues, enhance data integrity, and drive the timely resolution of financial system-related challenges.
