Accounts Receivable Specialist

Danner's Incorporated | Pasadena, TX

Full-Time | Hourly | Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Are You an Experienced Accounts Receivable Professional Who Knows How to Get Results?

Danner's Incorporated is looking for a highly organized, detail-oriented, and experienced Accounts Receivable Specialist to join our Accounting & Finance team!

We're looking for someone who knows accounts receivable inside and out—someone who is comfortable managing high-volume transactions, following up on outstanding balances, working directly with customers, and keeping financial records accurate and organized.

This is not just a data entry position. We need a proactive, dependable professional who takes ownership of their accounts, isn't afraid to pick up the phone, and knows how to professionally and persistently follow through on collections.

Our immediate priority is finding someone with strong Accounts Receivable experience. While Accounts Payable (AP) experience is a plus, it is not required. As you become fully proficient in the AR role, there may be opportunities to expand your responsibilities to include AP functions.

If you're someone who enjoys solving problems, building customer relationships, and keeping accounts on track, we'd love to hear from you!

What You'll Be Doing

Your primary focus will be managing our Accounts Receivable processes, ensuring timely collections, accurate records, and strong customer communication.

Accounts Receivable & Collections

• Actively manage outstanding customer balances, including frequent phone calls, emails, and follow-up on past-due accounts.

• Monitor and maintain AR aging reports, identify overdue balances, and communicate concerns to leadership.

• Build and maintain positive customer relationships while professionally and persistently pursuing payment.

• Prepare, distribute, and follow up on customer statements.

• Research and resolve billing discrepancies, payment issues, and customer account questions.

• Take ownership of assigned accounts and follow through until issues are resolved.

Payment Processing & Account Management

• Accurately post customer payments, including checks, wire transfers, and credit card transactions.

• Process recurring customer payments and maintain accurate account records.

• Manage customer-specific billing arrangements, discounts, and payment exceptions.

• Prepare bank deposits and maintain organized deposit records.

• Create and update customer accounts in QuickBooks and internal systems.

• Process customer credit applications and credit references.

• Maintain accurate financial records, reports, and supporting documentation.

• Work closely with Accounting, Operations, and leadership to resolve account issues and improve collection efforts.

Potential for Expanded Responsibilities

While this position will initially focus on Accounts Receivable, additional Accounts Payable responsibilities may be introduced once the employee has demonstrated proficiency and independence in the AR role. Prior AP experience is a plus and provides an opportunity for broader involvement within our Accounting & Finance team.

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of Accounts Receivable experience, preferably in a high-volume environment.

• Strong experience with customer collections, aging reports, payment processing, and account reconciliations.

• Proven ability to professionally manage collection calls and follow up on outstanding balances.

• Proficiency in QuickBooks and Microsoft Excel.

• Working knowledge of accounting principles and financial processes.

• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, particularly when handling sensitive customer payment matters.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities, meet deadlines, and stay organized in a fast-paced environment.

• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to independently research and resolve discrepancies.

• High school diploma or equivalent.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous Accounts Payable experience.

• Experience managing a large portfolio of customer accounts or high-volume AR transactions.

• Experience with complex billing structures, customer discounts, and multiple payment methods.

The Right Person for This Role Is Someone Who...

• Takes ownership. You don't wait to be reminded to follow up on overdue accounts or outstanding issues.

• Is comfortable on the phone. You can confidently discuss balances, handle difficult conversations, and pursue collections while maintaining professional customer relationships.

• Pays attention to the details. You catch discrepancies, double-check your work, and understand that accuracy matters.

• Stays organized. You can manage a high volume of accounts, emails, transactions, and deadlines without losing track of priorities.

• Follows through. When something needs attention, you see it through to completion.

• Works well with others. You communicate effectively with customers, coworkers, and leadership to keep things running smoothly.
