With deep roots in producing large-scale industry events and facilitating international business, the company offers a stable, collaborative environment where accounting plays a key role in supporting multi-entity operations and ongoing system enhancements.

    This role sits within a close-knit, high-functioning accounting group and is focused on the accuracy and flow of incoming payments across multiple entities. It’s an opportunity for someone who enjoys clean, detail-driven work, takes ownership of their process, and thrives in a self-managed environment where consistency and reliability are highly valued.

    • Investigate and resolve unidentified or misapplied payments
    • Maintain and reconcile accounts receivable sub-ledgers and related balances
    • Generate invoices and support ongoing billing processes across multiple entities
    • Review payment platforms and ensure proper application of transactions
    • Assist with monthly close activities including reconciliations and reporting
    • Provide supporting documentation and analysis for audits and internal requests
    • Contribute to ongoing system and process improvements, including ERP transition efforts

    What Makes This Role Attractive

    • Stable, well-established organization with global backing 
    • Hybrid schedule with flexibility while maintaining strong team collaboration
    • Opportunity to step into a focused A/R role with clear ownership and impact
    • Supportive, low-micromanagement environment where individuals manage their own workflow
    • Exposure to a system transition to SAP and process improvement initiatives
    • Tight-knit accounting and finance team with strong tenure

    What You Bring

    • 4+ years of accounts receivable cash applications experience
    • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage high-volume transactional work
    • Solid understanding of accounting principles and reconciliations
    • Experience with ERP systems such as Microsoft Dynamics GP; SAP exposure is a plus
    • Ability to investigate discrepancies and resolve payment issues independently
    • Organized, reliable, and comfortable working in a structured environment
    • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

    Schedule & Benefits

    • Hybrid schedule: 4 days onsite, 1 day remote (Atlanta/Smyrna/Vinings area)
    • Full benefits package including PTO, holidays, and 401(k) with company match
