Accounting Specialist
Fide Freight provides essential freight services organizing shipments across the United States. We pride ourselves in going Above & Beyond in service.
This position keeps Fide's money moving. The AR/AP Specialist owns the financial backbone of our operation — billing customers accurately and on time, settling carriers quickly and correctly, and keeping the books clean as our load volume grows. When billing is sharp and carriers get paid right, the whole operation runs smoother. This role makes that happen.
The ideal candidate is detail-driven and dependable, someone who takes ownership of accuracy and doesn't let things slip. This individual is comfortable working in a high-volume environment, communicates clearly with carriers, customers, and internal teams, and treats clean books as a point of pride rather than a chore.
Why Fide?
- We are proudly family-owned and operated
- We aren't trying to be the biggest, but the best
- We hire people to develop and invest in
- We heavily protect our culture and our people
- We don't supply jobs, we supply careers
What We Value:
- Caring: We believe those who care provide the best service.
- Confident: We believe confidence creates trust.
- Resilient: We believe one must persist through challenge and adversity.
- Committed: We believe commitment creates craft.
Why You Should Apply:
- You want to be the backbone of a growing company, not a cog in a big one
- You have an interest in one of the most lucrative and recession-proof industries
- You take pride in work that's accurate, organized, and on time
- You want a clear path to grow into accounting and finance leadership
- You want a career and not a job
Minimum Requirements
2+ years of professional experience in accounts receivable, accounts payable, or general accounting — experience in freight, logistics, or transportation is a strong plus.
Or
Associate's or Bachelor's degree, preferably in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
About the Job:
First 30 Days:
- Get trained on the industry and Fide Freight's systems, including our Salesforce/Revenova TMS and accounting stack
- Learn our billing and carrier settlement workflows end to end
- Shadow operations and accounting team members to understand how a load moves from booked to paid
- Begin processing customer invoices and carrier payments under guidance
- Attend weekly trainings to continuously learn and grow
You will be successful if:
- You catch the small discrepancy before it becomes a big problem
- You'd rather fix the process than fix the same error twice
- High volume doesn't rattle you — you keep the books clean when loads spike
- You chase down what's owed without burning the relationship
- You're organized enough that people trust your numbers without double-checking
Key Competencies
- Accounts Receivable: Customer invoicing, collections, cash application, and aging management. Comfortable following up on outstanding balances professionally and persistently.
- Accounts Payable: Carrier settlements, invoice and rate confirmation matching, factoring company coordination, and quick-pay processing.
- Reconciliation & Close: Ability to reconcile accounts, resolve discrepancies, and support month-end close.
- Tech Savvy: Comfortable using TMS and CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce, Revenova), accounting software, and Excel.
- Accuracy & Detail: A high bar for getting numbers right the first time and a system for making sure they stay right.
- Communication: Clear, professional communication with carriers, factoring companies, customers, and internal operations.
