Accounts Receivable

We are seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive Accounts Receivable (A/R) Specialist to join our finance team. This role is critical to maintaining our company's cash flow by ensuring the accurate and timely collection of revenue across cash, loan, and lease/PPA solar projects.

The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in traditional A/R and collections, coupled with direct experience navigating the nuances of solar milestone billing (e.g., Install, Permission to Operate) and managing portals for major solar finance partners.

Key Responsibilities

Solar Finance & Milestone Billing

• Process Milestone Invoices: Generate and submit invoices based on critical solar project milestones, including Notice to Proceed (NTP), Installation (M1/M2), and Permission to Operate (PTO).
• Manage Lender Portals: Navigate and manage third-party solar financing portals (e.g., GoodLeap, Sunnova, Dividend, Sunlight Financial, Sunrun) to submit required documentation, clear lender stipulations, and trigger fund releases.
• Reconcile Funding: Accurately match received funds against expected loan disbursements and customer deposits. Identify, calculate, and account for lender dealer fees and withholdings.
• Rebate & Incentive Tracking: Assist in the submission, tracking, and collection of state-specific solar rebates, utility incentives, or SREC payments.

Cash Collection & Accounts Receivable

• Proactive Collections: Execute B2C and B2B collection efforts by actively contacting homeowners, commercial clients, and finance partners regarding past-due balances and unreleased milestone payments.
• Monitor Aging Reports: Review weekly A/R aging reports to identify delinquent accounts, prioritize collection efforts, and reduce Days Sales Outstanding (DSO).
• Resolve Payment Disputes: Investigate and resolve complex billing discrepancies. Collaborate with the sales, operations, and project management teams to unblock delayed payments caused by project hold-ups or failed inspections.
• Payment Processing: Post incoming cash, check, wire, ACH, and credit card payments to the correct customer accounts in the accounting system accurately and daily.

Qualifications & Requirements

Experience & Education

• Education: Bachelor’s or Associate’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or equivalent practical experience preferred.
• Experience: 1+ years of experience in Accounts Receivable, Billing, or B2B/B2C Collections.
• Industry Knowledge: Minimum 1-2 years of experience in the solar, construction, or renewable energy industry is a plus.
