A Billing Specialist manages the billing processes of a corporation or institution; processing payments, generating and delivering invoices, documenting and keeping track of payment information. It is the responsibility of billing specialists to collect payments, balance the books, and secure the revenue of the company.
They oversee the status of accounts and check the validity of resources, taking note of inconsistencies and resolving them. They manage the payments' database and inform clients about their debts. They provide reports on billing activities as well, making sure the cash flow of the institution is transparent.
You will need strong accounting and bookkeeping skills to hold your ground at this position, and of course, problem-solving and critical thinking should be your bread and butter. Accounting is considered an obscure realm by most so patience, empathy, and great customer service skills are a must as well.
