Job Description
As our Accounting/Billing Specialist, you'll be essential to our financial operations, ensuring accuracy in accounts payable and receivable. You'll need to be really good with numbers and understand our contingency fee billing model inside-out and be proficient in Microsoft Excel. You'll need to get to know who our vendors are and learn when to question an invoice. Oh yeah, before I forget, our "busy season" happens during the first week of each month so you'd hafta be willing to be in the office (i.e. not take vacation) during that time.
salary: $65,000 - $75,000 per year
shift: First
work hours: 8:45 AM - 5:15 PM
education: Bachelors
Responsibilities
What We're Looking For: - Minimum 1 year of experience in an accounting/billing role within a law firm (trust us, you'll need it).
- Solid understanding of trust accounting (IOLTA) principles; the difference between legal fees and expenses; and what contingency fee billing entails.
- A genuine desire to work in an accounting/billing role (in a law firm).
- Know how to write a check.
- Know how to endorse a check, complete a deposit slip and bring it to the bank.
- Working knowledge of basic legal and litigation terms.
- A ninja-like attention to detail - seriously, we once lost a staple and it threw off our entire filing system for a day.
- Excellent communication skills (because following up with clients for payment needs to be done just right).
- Proficiency in Excel formulas (show us your favorite one in your application).
- Ability to multi-task and stay organized (you gotta keep up with our fast pace).
- Very comfortable with a PC (Macs are cool but you gotta know the difference between left click and right click).
- Easy to work and get along with (I know, it sounds silly doesn't it).
