What you'll do and how you'll have an impact

The Senior AR Analyst owns and oversees the end-to-end accounts receivable and cash lifecycle for IT Cloud, an AppDirect Company, with expanded accountability for cash forecasting, variance /flux analytical insights. While the role includes transactional AR execution (Credits, Cash, Collections) it also requires a detailed view to proactively identify issues impacting cash flow, DSO, and revenue accuracy, and to drive continuous improvement across the IT CLoud revenue processes. Success in this role requires strong analytical judgment, comfort operating in large datasets, and the ability to translate that data into clear, actionable recommendations for Finance and Revenue leadership.

• Own AR-related inputs into monthly cash flow forecasts, including expected collections, risk adjustments, and variance analysis versus prior forecasts.

• Proactively identify accounts at risk of delinquency or credit limit exposure and recommend preventive or corrective actions, including partnership with sales teams on suspension progression and 3rd party collection needs.
• Support the development and enhancement of Finance and AR reporting, including bad debt, credit exposure, churn-related impacts, and credit memo analysis.

 

Reporting & Communication

• Provide regular updates, insights, and recommendations to Finance and Revenue leadership related to cash flow, collections performance, and AR risk.
• Clearly communicate risks, variances, and proposed actions, supported by data and analysis.
• Escalate overdue, high-risk, or unusual AR issues with clear context and recommended next steps.
