Requirements
  • 3+ years of experience in dispatch, school operations, transportation coordination, or a billing support role within a transportation or logistics environment - operational experience is the most important qualification for this position
  • The ability to interpret route and ridership data with a critical eye - a working instinct for what accurate, complete transportation data should look like and the judgment to identify when something requires further investigation before an invoice is built
  • Exceptional attention to detail and organizational discipline - the ability to manage a multi-account billing portfolio across concurrent monthly cycles without allowing deadlines or open items to be missed
  • Proficiency in spreadsheet applications and data management tools - including data extraction, lookup functions, and the preparation of structured billing templates from raw operational data

  • Clear, professional written communication - the ability to document billing discrepancies, adjustment rationale, and account notes accurately and concisely
  • A strong sense of personal accountability and deadline orientation - the monthly billing cycle operates on fixed dates and the team and its district clients depend on consistent, on-time execution
