This position serves as a crucial financial resource for monitoring airline, tenants, and concession revenues, analyzing trends and variances, maintaining rate structures, and supporting compliance with contractual, regulatory, and audit requirements. While this role retains responsibility for day-to-day accounts receivable functions, it is primarily focused on revenue analytics, process improvement, and decision support within a complex airport operating environment.

> Support revenue forecasting, budgeting, and rate‑setting activities by applying historical trends, operational metrics, and analytical insights.
> Address all accounts receivable activities, including recording payments, preparing and making bank deposits, reconciling receipts, monitoring payment activity and aging trends, identifying delinquency risks, and researching and resolving short‑payments, discrepancies, and customer inquiries.
> Serve as support point of contact for airlines, tenants, and internal stakeholders regarding billing, revenue data, rate application, and account status.
> Support month‑end close through revenue analysis, reconciliations, and reporting to ensure accurate and timely financial results.
> Prepare and maintain audit‑ready documentation and support external audits, internal reviews, regulatory reporting (including FAA Air Cargo), annual financial statements, and Single Audit requirements.
> Identify process inefficiencies, risks, and control gaps within revenue, billing, and accounts receivable workflows, and recommend or support system enhancements and automation initiatives.
> Collaborate cross‑functionally with Finance, Properties, Operations, Parking, Badging, and leadership on data integrity, internal controls, and revenue alignment initiatives.

The Ideal Candidate:

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of revenue processes, billing cycles, and revenue recognition, with experience interpreting contracts and rate structures in a contract‑driven or regulated environment. This role requires proficiency in financial recordkeeping to support internal controls, audits, and compliance, as well as the ability to identify process improvements and strengthen controls. Experience with complex or multi‑stream revenue environments, preferably within airport or transportation operations, is highly desirable.

Candidates should demonstrate advanced Excel skills for data analysis and reporting, along with proficiency in Microsoft Office and accounting or financial systems.
