A globally connected organization with a strong North American presence is continuing to build out its accounting team during a period of steady growth and operational transformation. With deep roots in producing large-scale industry events and facilitating international business, the company offers a stable, collaborative environment where accounting plays a key role in supporting multi-entity operations and ongoing system enhancements.

This role sits within a close-knit, high-functioning accounting group and is focused on the accuracy and flow of incoming payments across multiple entities. It’s an opportunity for someone who enjoys clean, detail-driven work, takes ownership of their process, and thrives in a self-managed environment where consistency and reliability are highly valued.

  • Investigate and resolve unidentified or misapplied payments
  • Maintain and reconcile accounts receivable sub-ledgers and related balances
  • Generate invoices and support ongoing billing processes across multiple entities
  • Review payment platforms and ensure proper application of transactions
  • Assist with monthly close activities including reconciliations and reporting
  • Provide supporting documentation and analysis for audits and internal requests
  • Contribute to ongoing system and process improvements, including ERP transition efforts
  • What Makes This Role Attractive

  • Stable, well-established organization with global backing
  • Hybrid schedule with flexibility while maintaining strong team collaboration
  • Opportunity to step into a focused A/R role with clear ownership and impact
  • Supportive, low-micromanagement environment where individuals manage their own workflow
  • Exposure to a system transition to SAP and process improvement initiatives
  • Tight-knit accounting and finance team with strong tenure
  • What You Bring

  • 4+ years of accounts receivable cash applications experience
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage high-volume transactional work
  • Solid understanding of accounting principles and reconciliations
  • Experience with ERP systems such as Microsoft Dynamics GP; SAP exposure is a plus
  • Ability to investigate discrepancies and resolve payment issues independently
  • Organized, reliable, and comfortable working in a structured environment
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • Schedule & Benefits

  • Hybrid schedule: 4 days onsite, 1 day remote (Atlanta/Smyrna/Vinings area)
  • Full benefits package including PTO, holidays, and 401(k) with company match
