About
Kasco is a commercial general contractor with more than 35 years of experience delivering healthcare, institutional, and commercial projects throughout Michigan and the Midwest. We are known for quality work, long-term client relationships, and a practical, team-oriented approach to construction.
As a 100% employee-owned company (ESOP), every employee has a direct stake in the company’s performance and long-term success.
We are seeking an experienced Accounts Receivable Specialist to support accurate billing, collections, customer account management, and project cash flow across our construction portfolio. This role requires strong attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to work effectively with Project Managers, Accounting, and customers.
This position is a good fit for someone who is organized, proactive, and comfortable managing billing and collection activity in a deadline-driven environment.
What You’ll Do
In this role, you will manage the accounts receivable lifecycle for assigned commercial construction projects, from invoice preparation through collections and final payment. You will work closely with Project Managers, Accounting, and customers to support accurate billing, timely payment, and effective cash flow management.
The role also includes resolving billing questions, maintaining customer account records, supporting month-end activities, and identifying opportunities to improve AR processes.
In this role, you will:
- Own the accounts receivable process from invoice preparation through collections and final payment for assigned projects.
- Partner with Project Managers to ensure billing aligns with contract requirements, project milestones, and customer expectations.
- Prepare and submit accurate customer invoices, payment applications, and supporting documentation in accordance with contract terms.
- Manage collections by monitoring aging reports, identifying collection risks, and completing follow-up activities to support healthy cash flow.
- Serve as a primary point of contact for customer billing questions, payment status, and account resolution.
- Research and resolve billing discrepancies by collaborating with Project Managers, Accounting, and customers to identify practical solutions.
- Maintain accurate customer account records and documentation within Acumatica, Sage, and other ERP or accounting systems.
- Process customer payments, credit memos, account adjustments, and other receivable transactions while ensuring financial accuracy.
- Assist with month-end close activities, account reconciliations, revenue reporting, and financial analysis.
- Monitor trends within assigned accounts and escalate potential collection concerns or project risks before they impact cash flow.
- Identify opportunities to improve billing, collections, reporting, and workflow efficiency while supporting continuous improvement initiatives across the Accounting team.
- Collaborate with Finance and Operations to support project financial performance.
- Perform other accounting and finance responsibilities as assigned.
What Success Looks Like
The ideal candidate is an accounting professional who is organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working across teams. You communicate clearly, take ownership of your work, and can identify and resolve issues before they affect billing, collections, or project cash flow.
