• Analyze AR aging trends and provide actionable insights
• Maintain detailed documentation and collections notes
• Support cash forecasting and collections reporting
• Ensure adherence to payment terms and internal credit policies

• Proven success collecting on aged AR (60+ / 90+)
• Experience managing high‑value or high‑volume customer portfolios
• Strong understanding of DSO, AR aging, and cash application
• Comfortable handling difficult customer conversations and negotiations
• ERP experience preferred (Sage Intacct, Salesforce, or similar)
• Highly proactive, persistent, and results‑driven collections mindset

Additional Details

• Onsite / Hybrid: 3 days onsite, 2 days remote - Centreville, VA
• Type: Contract / temporary (urgent need)
• Team Environment: Fast‑paced, high‑accountability, execution‑focused
