  • Demonstrated experience driving automation across credit and collections workflows, with measurable improvements to efficiency, coverage, or DSO.
  • Strong working knowledge of commercial credit risk assessment, including use of credit reporting tools (e.g., D&B, Experian) and financial statement analysis.
  • Hands-on experience with ERP and AR systems (e.g., NetSuite, Oracle, SAP) and AR automation platforms (e.g., Tesorio, HighRadius, Billtrust), including shaping workflow and integration design rather than just using them.
  • Proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets for portfolio analysis, reporting, and ad hoc modeling.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to navigate sensitive customer and executive-level internal conversations diplomatically.
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in accounts receivable, credit, or collections, including significant time leading teams and managing people managers.
  • Hands-on experience deploying AI or LLM-based solutions in a finance or AR context, whether through vendor tooling, custom workflows, or agentic systems.
  • Experience supporting a company through rapid scaling, including process build-out, systems implementation, and org design.
  • Familiarity with enterprise contract structures, including multi-year deals, usage-based billing, and non-standard payment terms.
  • Exposure to global AR operations and cross-regional coordination.
  • Experience partnering with Sales and Deal Desk leadership on complex commercial negotiations.
  • Working knowledge of SOX controls and audit requirements as they relate to AR and credit.
  • Comfort prompting and evaluating LLMs as part of daily work, and a point of vie

Responsibilities

  • Set the strategic direction for Americas credit and collections, including portfolio management, aging reviews, and cash forecasting for the region.
  • Own the Americas collections automation roadmap, including segmentation strategy, dunning workflows, self-service payment experiences, and automated dispute routing.
  • Drive adoption of AI across the credit and collections workflow, including intelligent prioritization of collector outreach, AI-drafted customer correspondence, predictive risk scoring, and automated reconciliation of customer responses.
  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of credit and collections professionals, including people managers, setting clear KPIs around DSO, aging, collection effectiveness, and automation coverage.
  • Own credit risk strategy for new and existing Americas customers, including credit policy, credit limit frameworks, payment term guidelines, and data-driven escalation of higher-risk accounts.
  • Partner with Sales, Deal Desk, and Legal leadership on contract negotiations involving payment terms, credit exposure, and non-standard billing arrangements.
  • Drive timely resolution of material customer disputes in partnership with Billing Operations, Cash Application, and Customer Success.
  • Develop and refine credit and collections policies, playbooks, and escalation paths suited to a rapidly scaling enterprise SaaS business, with automation embedded by default rather than bolted on.
  • Lead the Americas rollout and continued optimization of our AR automation platform, including workflow design, integrations with ERP and billing systems, and reporting.
  • Partner with Finance Systems and internal AI tooling teams to identify and deploy agentic and LLM-based solutions that reduce manual work and improve decision quality across the credit and collections lifecycle.
  • Deliver regular reporting and insights on receivables health, bad debt reserves, collections performance, and automation metrics to senior finance leadership.
