- Respond to carrier payment inquiries and maintain positive carrier relationships.
- Coordinate with internal teams (e.g., operations, carrier sales) to ensure invoice accuracy and prevent payment delays.
- Generate reports on aged payables, cash outflow trends, and payment exceptions.
What We Look For:
Required:
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to accurately process high volumes of invoices.
- Ability to work independently and prioritize tasks effectively in a fast-paced environment.
- Strong problem-solving skills with a proactive approach to resolving discrepancies.
- Excellent communication skills for coordinating with carriers and internal teams.
Preferred:
- Experience in accounts payable, freight brokerage, logistics, or transportation.
- Familiarity with industry terminology and transportation-related documents (e.g., rate confirmations, BOLs, carrier invoices).
- Prior experience working with Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and payment platforms.
Technical Skills:
- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other office applications.
- Experience working with financial or accounting software.
- Ability to learn and adapt to new systems and platforms efficiently.
Our Benefits:
- Competitive base salary and bonus incentives
- Comprehensive benefits package: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life/ AD&D Insurance, Short-Term Disability
- 401(k) with Company Matching
- Generous PTO + Company Paid Holidays
- Casual dress code and an energetic team culture.
