A reconciliation specialist ensures that a company’s financial balances match with the figures in its account ledgers. As a reconciliation specialist, you examine the company’s accounting records, review them with banking documentation, and report any discrepancies in the reports. In some offices, you may also help with the collection of delinquent payments. To become a reconciliation specialist, you need an associate or bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, business, or a related field, though some employers may consider candidates who do not have a degree but have industry experience.
