## About this task

This industrial manufacturer supplying aerospace (1,001–5,000 employees) is looking for a senior Accounts Receivable & Collections Specialist for an ongoing part-time engagement of 4–10 h a week. Contacts customers with late balances and agrees payment dates.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It manufactures physical products, and the office team works to month-end and plant schedules.

The team sits in Austin. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (CT).

## What you deliver

- Contact the 30 customers over 40 days late, record promises to pay and escalate the five largest balances.

- Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day

- A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends

- A written update every Monday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked

## What a week looks like

- Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window

- Wednesday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked

- Monday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread

**Duration:** 16 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.
