At MCI we are committed to fostering an environment where professionals can build meaningful careers, access continuous learning and development opportunities and contribute to the success of a globally expanding, industry-leading organization. 

We are seeking a detail-oriented Payment Processing Specialist to join our Finance & Accounting team. This role provides backup and support to the Payment Processing Coordinator as well as the Finance Director and will require cross-training on daily payment processing, reconciliation, client remittances, NSFs/chargebacks, refunds, invoicing, bank reconciliations, and month-end financial reporting.

The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, comfortable working with financial data and Microsoft Excel, and able to reconcile information across multiple systems, payment processors, and bank accounts. Experience in payment processing, accounting, banking, or financial reconciliation is preferred.

This is a deadline-driven role involving consumer/client funds, so accuracy, organization, accountability, and the ability to identify and research discrepancies are extremely important. The individual will need to learn multiple systems and processes and eventually be able to provide reliable backup coverage for the Payment Processing Coordinator.

We are open to candidates with strong accounting, finance, or reconciliation experience who may not have direct payment processing experience, provided they demonstrate strong attention to detail, Excel skills, and the ability to learn complex processes and systems.

Schedule: Monday - Friday, with an ET-based schedule beginning as early as 7:00/7:30 AM ET. No weekend work is required. Occasional weekday overtime may be necessary based on business needs, deadlines, or month-end activity.
