Description
Accounts Receivable Specialist
The Role
This is a hands-on AR position with a high-growth, multi-brand consumer business in the beauty/tanning space. You'll own the day-to-day receivables process across several brands, reporting into the Assistant Controller. The focus is on keeping the ledger clean, staying on top of collections, and supporting chargebacks across a wholesale customer base.
You'll partner closely with sales and fulfillment to make sure accounts are accurate and current, while helping build out processes that can scale as the company continues to grow. The environment is structured but not rigid, so if you want to take on more over time, there's room to do that.
It's a good fit for someone who takes pride in getting the fundamentals right. You'll get exposure to multiple entities and currencies, be involved in a NetSuite rollout, and work with a finance team that's building things the right way. Whether you want to stay in AR long term or use this as a stepping stone into broader finance, the path is there.
The Company
Soleil Collective is a private equity-backed platform building a portfolio of high-growth beauty brands focused on sunless tanning, suncare, and body care. The business supports its brands with strong capabilities across sales, marketing, operations, and strategy. Current brands include Loving Tan and Coco & Eve.
What You'll Be Doing
- Own the AR aging across all brands, staying on top of past dues and flagging risk early
- Apply and reconcile cash daily, making sure everything ties out and discrepancies are handled quickly
- Work with sales and fulfillment to confirm revenue is properly closed before month-end
- Send customer statements once accounts are fully reconciled
- Partner with the retail team on trade accruals and commission entries during close
- Help manage deductions and chargebacks end-to-end, including tracking and follow-up
- Track and reconcile marketing accruals tied to retailer programs
- Review aging in detail at month-end, investigate anything over 30 days, and support bad debt reserves/write-offs
- Put together regular AR reporting (aging, collections, deductions) and communicate status clearly
- Work cross-functionally to resolve account issues and keep records clean
- Support NetSuite go-live and ongoing improvements within the AR function
What They're Looking For
- 2-3 years of AR or related accounting/finance experience
- Strong understanding of collections, cash application, reconciliations, and dispute resolution
- Experience working with wholesale/retail customers, including chargebacks and deductions
- NetSuite experience and ability to step in without a learning curve
- Solid Excel skills for tracking and reporting
- Exposure to multi-entity or international AR is a plus
How You Operate
- Consistent and reliable, especially around close and recurring deliverables
- Organized, with a clear handle on outstanding items at all times
- Proactive in following up and pushing things forward without being asked
- Detail-oriented, especially when it comes to reconciliations and account accuracy
- Clear communicator, both internally and with customers
- Team player who can plug into a structured finance environment and support the broader close process
