Billing Specialist

ICF · Reston, VA · 1 mo ago
$55k–$94k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes "Description" then "What You Will Do", "What You Will Bring With You", "What We Would Like You To Bring With You". Also "Pay Range" is given. Also location/hybrid schedule: "This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." So we have schedule info. Benefits not mentioned. So we include sections: About the role (maybe from description paragraph), Responsibilities (What You Will Do), Requirements (What You Will Bring With You), Qualifications (What We Would Like You To Bring With You), Pay (Pay Range), Schedule (Hybrid). Ensure we don't repeat job title. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for lists. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate: EEO, accommodation, legal, etc. Also remove "Bot and Third-Party Applications" etc. Also remove "Working at ICF" etc. Also remove "Candidate AI Usage Policy". Also remove "Read more about workplace discrimination rights..." etc. Also remove "Pay Range - There are multiple factors..." but we need to keep the pay range numbers. The instruction: include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state pay range. So we include Pay section with the range. Should we include the explanatory sentence? It says "Pay Range - There are multiple factors that are considered in determining final pay for a position, including, but not limited to, relevant work experience, skills, certifications and competencies that align to the specified role, geographic location, education and certifications as well as contract provisions regarding labor categories that are specific to the position. The pay range for this position based on full-time employment is: $55,424.00 - $94,221.00 Reston, VA (VA30)". We need to preserve all substantive information. The explanatory sentence about factors is substantive? It's generic but still part of posting. We should keep it? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep that sentence as is. However, we might consider it boilerplate? It's about pay determination; it's not EEO/legal. It's part of the posting. So we keep it. Schedule: "This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." That's schedule info. We also have location: Reston, VA. Could be included in schedule or about role. We'll include schedule section. Now we need to decide sections: - About the role: maybe the first paragraph "Description We are seeking a Billing Specialist II, who will be responsible for the preparation of complex billings for submission to customers. Project types range from FFP to T&M to Cost Plus. Clients include government agencies and commercial companies. You will also engage in unbilled analysis, accounts receivable collections, and financial reconciliations. This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." That's description. Could be About the role. - Responsibilities: "What You Will Do" bullet list (though it's prose sentences). We'll convert each sentence into

  • maybe. The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The "What You Will Do" is a list of duties, albeit in paragraph. We'll break into list items. - Requirements: "What You Will Bring With You": includes 2+ years overall Accounting/Finance experience, 6 months+ recent experience using Deltek Costpoint 7 or later, HS Diploma. That's a list. - Qualifications: "What We Would Like You To Bring With You": list of desired qualifications. - Pay: include the pay range paragraph. - Schedule: hybrid info. We must not include sections with filler like "Benefits" if not present. Now produce HTML. We need to ensure no extra text outside HTML. No markdown fences. Let's craft. First, About the role:

      About the role

      then

      with the description paragraph. But note the description includes "Description" at start; we can omit that label. We'll just use the sentence. Paragraph: "We are seeking a Billing Specialist II, who will be responsible for the preparation of complex billings for submission to customers. Project types range from FFP to T&M to Cost Plus. Clients include government agencies and commercial companies. You will also engage in unbilled analysis, accounts receivable collections, and financial reconciliations. This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." Now Responsibilities:

      Responsibilities

      then
        with items: - Prepare and review monthly invoices according to company guidelines and contract requirements utilizing financial reports to ensure overall invoice compliance. - Analyze unbilled receivables on a monthly basis against standard Costpoint reports, research and resolve a variety of internal and external customer inquiries concerning billing status, initiate communications to external and internal customers to resolve billing discrepancies and assist in collection efforts and resolving collection issues. - Work independently as well as cross functionally, multi-task with minimal supervision, and be able to produce indirect rate variance invoices as required. - Work closely with Project Accounting team, Program Managers, Project Financial Controllers, and Contract Managers to ensure accuracy and completeness of invoices. - Must be deadline driven, able to work in a fast-paced environment, organized, a technical thinker, and detail oriented. We need to keep all details. The original also includes "You will work independently as well as cross functionally, multi-task with minimal supervision, and be able to produce indirect rate variance invoices as required." Good. Now Requirements:

        Requirements

          items: - 2+ years of overall Accounting/Finance experience. - 6 months+ of recent experience using Deltek Costpoint 7, or later. - HS Diploma. Now Qualifications:

          Qualifications

            items: - Experience using Deltek Costpoint billing module. - Experience using V-lookup and Pivot Table functions in Excel. - Solid experience in resolving unbilled. - Experience using Cognos for reporting. - Project Accounting, Set Up, and Revenue Recognition knowledge. - Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field. - Demonstrated proficiency in MS 365. - Demonstrated ability to process a high volume of invoices monthly. Now Pay:

            Pay

            Pay Range - There are multiple factors that are considered in determining final pay for a position, including, but not limited to, relevant work experience, skills, certifications and competencies that align to the specified role, geographic location, education and certifications as well as contract provisions regarding labor categories that are specific to the position. The pay range for this position based on full-time employment is: $55,424.00 - $94,221.00 Reston, VA (VA30)

            Now Schedule:

            Schedule

            This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office.

            We must not repeat job title. Good. Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed EEO, accommodation, legal, etc. Also removed "Bot and Third-Party Applications" etc. Also removed "Working at ICF" etc. Also removed "Candidate AI Usage Policy". Also removed "Read more about workplace discrimination rights..." etc. Now ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: The description also includes "You will also engage in unbilled analysis, accounts receivable collections, and financial reconciliations." Already in description. Good. Also "You will work closely with Project Accounting team, Program Managers, Project Financial Controllers, and Contract Managers to ensure accuracy and completeness of invoices." Already in responsibilities. Also "You must be deadline driven, able to work in a fast-paced environment, organized, a technical thinker, and detail oriented." Already. Now check if any other info: "What You Will Bring With You" includes "HS Diploma". Good. Now "What We Would Like You To Bring With You" includes "Experience Using Deltek Costpoint billing module." "Experience using V-lookup and Pivot Table functions in Excel, Solid experience in resolving unbilled." "Experience using Cognos for reporting." "Project Accounting, Set Up, and Revenue Recognition knowledge." "Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field." "Demonstrated proficiency in MS 365." "Demonstrated ability to process a high volume of invoices monthly." All captured. Now ensure we didn't inadvertently duplicate content: The schedule sentence also appears in description; we have it both in description and schedule section. That's duplication but we need to preserve all info; duplication is okay? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication. However, we might consider removing duplicate from description to avoid redundancy? But description already includes hybrid sentence; if we also put schedule section, we repeat. Could we keep only schedule section and remove from description? The instruction says preserve all substantive information; we can keep it in either place. Duplication is not prohibited but might be considered redundant. However, we could keep it only in schedule section and remove from description to avoid duplication. But the description also includes other info about role; we could keep description without the hybrid sentence. Let's see: The description paragraph originally: "We are seeking a Billing Specialist II, who will be responsible for the preparation of complex billings for submission to customers. Project types range from FFP to T&M to Cost Plus. Clients include government agencies and commercial companies. You will also engage in unbilled analysis, accounts receivable collections, and financial reconciliations. This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." If we remove the hybrid sentence from description, we lose that info unless we put it in schedule. We'll put it in schedule section and keep description without that sentence. That preserves all info (just moved). That's acceptable. Thus description paragraph becomes: "We are seeking a Billing Specialist II, who will be responsible for the preparation of complex billings for submission to customers. Project types range from FFP to T&M to Cost Plus. Clients include government agencies and commercial companies. You will also engage in unbilled analysis, accounts receivable collections, and financial reconciliations." Now schedule section: "This is a hybrid position with 2-3 days per week in the Reston, VA office." Now we need to ensure we didn't lose any other location info: The pay range includes "Reston, VA (VA30)" already. Now final HTML. Let's write:
