Job Description

WHO

Our client is a leading international law firm whose Hong Kong office sits at the heart of its Asia practice, known for some of the most sophisticated transactional work in the market. Its finance team is the engine room that keeps a busy billing operation running smoothly, and it is now looking for a Billing Coordinator to take charge of attorney billing for the office. This is a role for someone who takes real pride in accuracy, enjoys working directly with lawyers and finance colleagues, and wants their work to matter to the bottom line.

WHAT

You will coordinate and execute attorney billing end to end: preparing billing materials for fee updates and invoicing, reviewing and editing pre-bills and time entries in response to attorney and client requests, and making sure every invoice goes out accurate, on schedule and in line with billing arrangements, client-specific requirements and tax rules. You will submit invoices electronically, chase and resolve issues as they arise, monitor payment status on client-paid vendor invoices, process on-account applications and write-offs in line with policy, and keep billing documentation and approvals in impeccable order. Alongside the day-to-day, you will pitch in on special projects and provide back-up across the finance function.

YOU

You hold a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and bring a year or two of billing experience from a law firm or professional-services environment - experience with Elite 3E or a comparable billing system is a strong plus. Advanced Excel and Word come naturally to you. Just as important: you are highly detail-oriented and organised, calm under strict deadlines, and able to juggle priorities without dropping anything. You communicate clearly, are pleasant, proactive and professional with lawyers and clients alike, work happily in a team, and are flexible enough to adapt your hours when the billing cycle demands it.
