- Coordinate and communicate with customers on relevant customer- and country-specific invoicing requirements (including VAT/tax treatment and multi-currency billing) to ensure smooth payments.
- Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Operations, and Technology to resolve order, pricing, invoicing, and payment issues in a timely manner to support strong customer relationships.
- Coordinate task prioritization with offshore teams, review exceptions, and help ensure timely, accurate processing.
- Improve AR processes and adapt workflows as the business expands into new markets and warehouses, including leveraging the Company’s AI tools.
