What is a retainer?

A Retainer job typically refers to a role where an individual or company is paid a fixed fee regularly to provide ongoing services as needed. This arrangement is common in legal, consulting, and creative industries, where clients require consistent access to expertise without hiring a full-time employee. Retainers offer stability for both the service provider and the client, ensuring availability and commitment. The scope of work and payment structure are usually outlined in a contract.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the retainer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Retainer, it is essential to have a background in legal or consulting services, with expertise in client management and specific industry knowledge relevant to the retained field. Familiarity with case management systems, project tracking tools, and sometimes certifications such as a law degree or relevant consulting qualifications can be required. Excellent communication, problem-solving abilities, and discretion help Retainers build trust and maintain long-term client relationships. These skills and qualifications are crucial for consistently delivering high-value services, managing multiple client expectations, and sustaining ongoing business engagements.

What are the typical work arrangements and expectations for someone working on retainer?

Working as a Retainer usually involves an ongoing contractual relationship with clients, where you provide services or expertise on a regular basis, often in exchange for a fixed monthly or annual fee. This arrangement allows for flexibility, but also means you must be consistently available to address client needs, respond to requests promptly, and proactively offer guidance or solutions. Retainers often communicate frequently with client teams, manage multiple priorities, and may need to adapt quickly to shifting project scopes or environments. Over time, this continuous engagement can provide stability and opportunities to deepen industry knowledge or advance within the organization or consulting field.

Billing and Collections Manager

AGG

Atlanta, GA • On-site

Full-time

Posted 10 days ago


Key responsibilities

  • Own and manage the end-to-end billing cycle, including invoice generation, submission, and timeliness.

  • Ensure invoice quality and compliance with engagement letters, fee arrangements, and client guidelines to prevent rejections.

  • Lead collections efforts, including client communication, aging analysis, and managing overdue receivables.


Job description

Arnall Golden Gregory is creating a new leadership position to own the execution of the firm's revenue cycle from prebill through cash realization. This is not a caretaker role. The Billing and Collections Manager will lead a team of ten across two offices, set the standards the firm bills to, and drive measurable improvement in invoice quality, days-to-bill, days-to-cash, and aged accounts receivable - while the firm modernizes its financial systems.
We are looking for a working manager - someone comfortable leading the function and holding attorneys accountable to policy, and equally comfortable opening a prebill, diagnosing an e-billing rejection, or reconstructing a billing-to-payment audit trail when a client account demands it.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
  • The billing cycle end to end. The billing calendar, prebill distribution and return, invoice generation, complex and split billing, e-billing submission across client portals, and the accuracy and timeliness of every invoice the firm issues.
  • Invoice quality and guideline compliance. Alignment of invoices to engagement letters, fee arrangements, and client outside counsel guidelines - coding, timekeeper eligibility and rates, staffing restrictions, expense rules - so rejections are prevented rather than appealed.
  • Collections and aged receivables. The collections program for assigned portfolios: calling and correspondence, dunning cadence, promise-to-pay tracking, and monthly aging analysis by client, matter, practice group, and responsible attorney, delivered with a prioritized action plan rather than a report.
  • Prebill and time-entry discipline. Enforcement of prebill return and time-entry policy attorney by attorney, with escalating follow-up and clear escalation of chronic delinquency.
  • Escalated disputes and payment arrangements. Client billing disputes, deductions, and appeals, plus structured payment plans within delegated authority and recommendations on credit and matter holds.
  • The team. Ten people including a supervisor and a specialist based in Washington, D.C. - portfolio assignments, productivity and quality standards, coaching and performance management, cross-training, and bench strength.
  • Policy, procedure, and controls. Written policies and desk procedures, segregation of duties over invoice release, adjustments, and write-offs, and audit-ready documentation.
  • Process and system improvement. Workflow redesign, data-quality remediation of billing setup, automation of manual steps, and user acceptance testing and rollout of billing and e-billing changes.

You will report to the firm's revenue leadership and partner closely with the practice groups, new business intake, reporting and analytics, and Information Technology. Rate setting, fee-arrangement approval, cash application, and forecasting sit above this position, so your focus stays on execution and results.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN THE FIRST YEAR
  • Invoices released on the published billing calendar, with a shorter interval from period close to delivery.
  • Improved prebill turnaround and a shorter list of chronically delinquent billing attorneys.
  • A smaller share of receivables in the 90-, 120-, and 180-day buckets, and faster collection against billings.
  • Fewer e-billing rejections and client-initiated reductions, with higher first-pass acceptance.
  • Documented policies and desk procedures covering the full cycle, and a cross-trained team that follows them.

Specific targets are set with Finance leadership against a documented baseline in the first ninety days.
WHAT YOU BRING
  • Seven or more years of progressively responsible legal or professional-services billing, collections, and accounts receivable experience.
  • Three or more years of direct people management, including performance management of a multi-person team.
  • Command of law-firm billing practice: prebill workflow, complex and split billing, task-based billing, LEDES formats, alternative fee arrangements, trust and retainer application, and write-off controls.
  • Command of commercial collections in a professional-services environment - aging analysis, escalation practice, payment arrangements, and direct client and partner conversations about balances.
  • Working proficiency with e-billing platforms and client vendor portals, and with resolving rejections, reductions, and appeals.
  • Advanced Excel, the ability to build and audit billing and receivables analyses independently, and proficiency in an enterprise time-and-billing or practice management system and its reporting tools.
  • A demonstrated ability to set standards, hold professionals accountable, and conduct difficult conversations with attorneys and clients with composure.
  • Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, business, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.

ALSO VALUABLE
  • Am Law 200 or comparable multi-office law firm experience.
  • Direct experience with Fulcrum, Aderant, or Elite, and with e-billing middleware such as eBillingHub or BillBlast.
  • Experience leading a billing-system implementation, conversion, or major workflow redesign, including data remediation and user acceptance testing.
  • Experience administering outside counsel guidelines for sophisticated institutional clients, and reporting capability beyond Excel such as Power BI.
  • CPA, CLM, or comparable credential, or law firm financial management coursework.

WHY THIS ROLE IS WORTH A CONVERSATION
  • It carries real scope: a ten-person team, firmwide policy ownership, and direct engagement with partners and institutional clients.
  • It sits inside an active financial systems modernization, so your process work gets built into the platform rather than worked around it.
  • It reports into revenue leadership with visibility to the firm's Chief Financial Officer.
