• Support allocation of cargo-related receipts, including card and other payment activity, to the appropriate general ledger accounts.
• Follow established controls and processing standards to maintain accuracy in a largely manual cash application workflow.

Qualifications:

• Previous experience in cash applications, accounts receivable, or transactional accounting roles.
