Mission Keep Kargo's revenue engine running cleanly by owning the full accounts receivable cycle — from accurate invoicing to cash application and collections. This role ensures the integrity of receivable balances, COGS recording, and AR operations for both domestic and APAC entities. Without this function, revenue recognition breaks down and cash flow visibility disappears. This is a hybrid role requiring onsite presence 4 days per week. Outcomes — What Success Looks Like in 6–12 Months AR ledger is clean and current. Invoices are issued accurately and on time, cash is applied daily, and the aging report reflects reality — no mystery balances or stale open items. Collections cadence is running. A consistent outreach process is in place, DSO is trending in the right direction, and escalations are handled proactively before they become problems. Month‑end close is predictable. AR reconciliations, journal entries, and COGS processing are completed on time each period with minimal rework or surprises. APAC operations are supported without gaps. Expense processing, payroll coordination, and vendor payment runs for the APAC entity are handled accurately and on schedule. Cross‑functional billing issues drop meaningfully. Discrepancies flagged by Sales and Client Success are resolved faster, and root causes are identified and addressed upstream. Skills — Core Technical Capabilities Required 1–3 years of accounting experience in a private or public company, preferably in media, technology, or digital advertising Working knowledge of US GAAP, general ledger activity, and AR‑specific processes (invoicing, cash application, reconciliations) Hands‑on experience with NetSuite Strong Excel skills for reconciliation, aging analysis, and reporting Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance Preferred CPA or active progress toward CPA certification Experience supporting international or APAC entity accounting operations Competencies — Behaviors We Like to See Precision Under Pressure Catches errors before they compound and maintains accuracy even during close crunch periods Treats the details as the job, not a distraction from it Proactive Cross‑Functional Communication Surfaces billing discrepancies and account issues early rather than waiting to be asked Works fluidly with Sales, Client Success, and Finance without needing to be managed across teams Process Ownership Takes initiative to improve how things work — reporting, workflows, system efficiencies — not just how they're done today Follows through on recurring responsibilities without dropping threads Growth Orientation Approaches a broad scope (AR, COGS, APAC support) as an opportunity to build expertise, not as scope creep Actively seeks to grow into greater ownership as the function scales Salary Range U.S Salary Range: $90,000 — $110,000 USD Our Laurels AdAge Best Places to Work ThinkLA Partner of the Year Built In Best Places to Work Cynopsis 2025 Top Women in Media - Jeannine Shao Collins Martech Breakthrough Awards - Best Overall Adtech Company Digiday Media Awards Best Event Cynopsis Media Impact Awards-Best CTV Platform Martech Breakthrough Awards-CTV Innovation Adweek Media Plan of the Year Awards - Best Use of Insights Follow Our Lead Big Picture: kargo.com The Latest: Instagram (@kargomobile) and LinkedIn (Kargo) Kargo is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
