  • Strong hands-on experience with payment runs, payment releases, ACH, wires, checks, banking portals, positive pay, and payment reconciliation.

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to partner effectively with Treasury, Finance, vendors, banking partners, and senior leadership.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead a self-sufficient remote team without micromanaging while maintaining accountability and engagement.
