[Hiring] Team Lead, Accounts Receivable Operations @Invoice Butler

Role Description

We're hiring a hands-on Team Lead, Accounts Receivable Operations to manage and support a team of 5–10 AR Operations Reps while also actively contributing to daily AR operations work. It's critical you can easily read and follow written instructions, so applicants who don't follow the instructions in the "How to Apply" section below will not be considered. This is not a “sit back and supervise” role. You'll lead from the front: coaching your team, solving problems, improving systems, and jumping into the work yourself. If you thrive in fast-moving environments, communicate clearly, take initiative without being asked, and know how to bring calm to chaos, we'd love to meet you. We are still a growing startup, which means priorities can shift quickly and processes are still evolving. You'll need resilience, adaptability, and the ability to give feedback that is both kind and candid.
