What are the responsibilities and job description for the Billing Clerk position at Spherion?
This position requires a versatile individual who can handle billing. Since the workload isn't full-time for either function alone, a single candidate will be responsible for both. The ideal person will have 3-5 years of experience and be highly adaptable, willing to follow established processes while also being open to suggesting improvements later on.Key ResponsibilitiesThe core duties of this role are manageable and not high-volume. They include: Daily A/R collections and posting cash receipts. Creating invoices - this process is simplified by "flipping" packing lists after shipments, so minimal data entry is required. Updating specific worksheets in Excel, so proficiency in the program is essential. Primary responsibilities: billing, invoicing, and possibly sending invoices. The role may also include some accounts payable/receivable tasks, depending on the absence or vacation of other staff. The ERP system used is called E2 Manufacturing System. Other software includes MS Office and a credit card machine for transactions.While the primary focus is on A/R and billing, a candidate with some experience in accounts payable is a plus, as there is potential for cross-training. The role requires an understanding of basic accounting principles, but not extensive general ledger work.Work Environment and Hiring ProcessThe work schedule is a fixed 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. shift with a one-hour lunch break. This is a direct hire position, but we will be using Temp-To-Perm to ensure a good fit before a long-term commitment. We are actively seeking a candidate to manage the current workload efficiently and to address the high accounts receivable balances by improving collections.The team comprises four members: the billing person, accounts receivable person, a staff accountant, and the department head.Compensation and ExperienceCandidates with a minimum of two years of experience are preferred. The pay range for this role is between $28 and $32 per hour. There is flexibility regarding the experience level as long as the tasks can be managed without starting from scratch.
