About the Role

We are looking for a detail-oriented and reliable Accounts Receivable Specialist to join our Finance team. The ideal candidate has solid AR fundamentals combined with hands-on experience using a Property Management System (PMS) to manage guest and city ledger billing, collections, and reconciliation processes for our hotel/property operations.

• Monitor payments, outstanding balances and follow up with frontdesk, OTAs (online travel agencies), and tenants and corporate clients to ensure timely collection of payments.
• Investigate and resolve billing discrepancies, disputed charges, and guest account issues in coordination with frontdesk and OTA’s.
• Ensure PMS-generated revenue and AR data reconcile properly with the accounting system (ERP) each day/month.
• Prepare aging reports and provide regular updates on collection status to management.
• Assist in month-end and year-end closing activities related to receivables, including journal entries and account reconciliations.

• At least 2–4 years of experience in Accounts Receivable or general accounting, preferably within the hospitality, hotel, or property management industry.

• Working knowledge of accounting software Xero or similar.
• Proficient in MS Excel and financial reporting tools.
• Strong understanding of basic accounting, particularly around revenue recognition and receivables.
• High attention to detail and accuracy in billing, posting, and reconciliation.

Preferred Skills
