We're on the Lookout for a Cash Applications Specialist who takes pride in accuracy, organization, and getting the details right. This role is responsible for ensuring customer payments received through a variety of sources are identified, applied accurately and timely, and reconciled to bank activity.


This role is ideal for someone who enjoys investigative work and doesn't stop when a payment doesn't immediately match. The right candidate is detail-oriented, dependable, and curious — someone who will research discrepancies, track down missing information, and help ensure our customer accounts and cash records remain accurate as the company continues to grow.

  • Reconcile daily cash receipts to bank activity and system records, investigating and resolving discrepancies
  • Research and resolve unidentified or unapplied cash, short payments, duplicate payments, and other payment exceptions
  • Investigate returned checks, rejected payments, and reversed transactions and ensure customer accounts are updated appropriately
  • Partner with branch and operational teams as needed to obtain missing payment information and resolve customer account discrepancies
  • Maintain organized supporting documentation and assist with audit requests or month-end reconciliations as required
  • Identify recurring issues and opportunities to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the cash application process

Required Qualifications:

  • Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred; equivalent relevant experience considered

  • Strong research and problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable working across multiple systems and payment platforms
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills
  • Ability to work independently while knowing when to escalate exceptions
  • Professional communication skills and ability to work with teams across multiple locations
  • Hybrid schedule - in office 3+ days a week

Preferred Experience:

  • Experience with PestPac or similar field service/customer management systems
  • Experience with lockbox banking
  • Experience with merchant portals and payment processors
  • Prior experience in a PE-backed or high-growth environment
  • Process improvement mindset
