Accounts Receivable Specialist (Fixed-Term)

About Wolt

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

Great growth needs great accounting — and that’s where you come in. As we continue to scale, we are looking for an AR Specialist who brings expertise, ownership, and precision to our Finance team. We take pride in owning our work, valuing accuracy and attention to detail, and continuously improving how we operate. If you thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment and bring a strong background in Accounts Receivable, we’d love to welcome you to our Finance team at Wolt.

This is a fixed-term role for two years.

What you’ll be doing

• Manage assigned aged receivables and proactively follow up on overdue balances to ensure timely collection.

• Analyze customer payment behavior, aging trends, and recurring issues to identify risks and recommend appropriate actions.
• Perform monthly AR reporting and reconciliation activities, including overdue reporting, account reconciliations, documentation, and other month-end requirements.
• Perform and monitor cash application activities, independently investigating and resolving discrepancies and unapplied or unidentified payments.
• Perform credit risk assessments for new and existing customers in line with established policies, using sound judgment to identify cases requiring further review.
• Manage collection cases and escalate debt to collection agencies when appropriate, ensuring proper documentation and follow-up.
• Collaborate with Finance, Sales, and other stakeholders to resolve AR-related issues and support regular operational reviews.
