About the role

Sparus Holdings is seeking an experienced Accounts Receivable Analyst to join our Finance and Accounting team. This role is responsible for accurate and timely invoicing, collections, cash application, and unbilled revenue support across Sparus Holdings and its operating companies.

The Accounts Receivable Analyst will work closely with Operations and project teams to ensure completed field work is accurately converted into customer invoices. The role also supports the monthly close process by identifying work that has been completed but not yet billed and preparing supporting revenue accruals.

This position is a good fit for someone who enjoys both the day-to-day execution of accounts receivable and the analytical side of accounting.

What you'll do

Partner with Operations and project management teams to review and verify pre-bill documentation before invoices are issued.
Confirm work orders, quantities, rates, and supporting documentation align with contract requirements.
Generate and issue customer invoices accurately and on schedule across multiple operating entities.
Submit invoices through customer billing portals and meet customer-specific documentation and formatting requirements.
Research and resolve billing disputes, deductions, and short payments.
Work with Operations leadership to identify completed work that has not yet been invoiced and prepare monthly unbilled revenue accruals.
Reconcile unbilled and work-in-process balances and track aging.
Monitor the conversion of accrued revenue to actual billings and identify recurring causes of billing delays.
Manage assigned accounts receivable aging and follow up with customers on past-due balances by phone and email.
Apply customer payments and research unapplied cash, deductions, and account discrepancies.
Reconcile accounts receivable and unbilled revenue accounts to the general ledger.
Track and report AR metrics such as DSO, receivables over 60 and 90 days, unapplied cash, and unbilled aging.
Support month-end close, audits, lender requests, system initiatives, and special projects as needed.

What we're looking for

3+ years of experience in accounts receivable, billing, or project accounting.
Experience working with a major ERP system.
Intermediate Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookup functions, and working with large data sets.
Experience partnering directly with Operations or other business teams to resolve billing and accounting issues.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage a high volume of transactions and competing deadlines.
Clear written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to take ownership of issues and work independently through resolution.
Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where processes and reporting needs may change.

Preferred experience

Associate's or bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
NetSuite experience.
Project billing or project accounting experience.
Experience with unit-price, time-and-materials, or work-order-based billing.
Experience working in a multi-entity organization.
Experience in utility services, construction, field services, or a similar industry.
Experience preparing revenue accruals as part of the monthly close process.
