Crystal Jones
@crystaljones3
Senior AR/collections professional improving cash flow with precise reconciliations.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accounts receivable and credit/collections professional who turns complex payment and invoice issues into accurate, audit-ready reporting. Across contract and consulting roles, I’ve managed AR help desks, enforced contract terms, resolved payment discrepancies, and reconciled 75+ daily accounts while supporting large portfolios.
My work is proven through measurable impact: I recovered $2 million in collections during receivership, reconciled 300 historical AR records to recover $75 mill in revenue, and streamlined collections to reduce Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) by 12 days. I also optimize AP/AR processes—administering vendor portals and ACH payments, improving reconciliation accuracy by 30%, and training teams to cut onboarding time by 30%—while maintaining SOX, GAAP, and compliance standards using tools like SAP, Oracle Financials, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, QuickBooks, and advanced Excel.
