  • Communicate with Accounting, Accounts Payable, Payroll, Workers' Compensation, Tax, and other departments regarding deposit activity, documentation needs, transaction questions, and issue resolution without assuming ownership of those functional areas.
  • Follow established accounting policies, procedures, internal controls, approval requirements, segregation-of-duties expectations, and record-retention standards.
