  • SLA & KPI Ownership: Own SLAs and KPIs (aging health, delinquency rate, promise-to-pay attainment, dispute blocker resolution cycle time, escalation throughput); analyze variances and drive corrective actions.

  • Stakeholder Management & Reporting: Serve as the primary operational contact for internal stakeholders; provide routine reporting on team performance, key risks, top delinquency drivers, and action plans to leadership.
  • Process Improvement & Best Practices: Drive standardization and improvements (segmentation strategies, contact cadence, playbooks, dispute-blocker workflows, automation opportunities) to reduce delinquency and rework.
  • Training & Development: Build and maintain onboarding/training materials; develop team capability in negotiation, account strategy, and compliance.
  • Operational Risk Management: Maintain a risk-and-issue view (concentration risk, systemic billing defects, customer behavior shifts) and ensure timely escalation and mitigation.

  • End-to-End Process & Controls Expertise: Advanced understanding of order-to-cash processes, controls, and policies, including how upstream defects impact collections.
