Zipliens is a leading lien resolution company that specializes in streamlining the lien process for personal injury law firms. We are looking for proactive, results-driven individuals to join our dynamic team.

Zipliens is establishing a dedicated finance function, and the Finance Operations Specialist is the first position on the team. The role reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and manages the day-to-day billing, accounts receivable, collections, accounts payable, and procurement processes. These processes currently run across multiple spreadsheets, inboxes, and systems. Working closely with the CFO, the Finance Operations Specialist will help consolidate them into documented, repeatable workflows that support the company's growth.

The Finance Operations Specialist will manage invoicing and receivables for both the Single Event and Mass Tort segments, including multi-claimant mass tort invoices. Responsibilities include applying incoming payments, managing past-due balances, and serving as the primary finance contact for law firm clients on billing inquiries, disputes, and payment terms. The role also manages accounts payable and supports procurement, with Ramp as the system for vendor onboarding, purchase approvals, contracts, and payments. Daily work is performed in Ramp, Bill.com, QuickBooks Online, the company's online bank accounts, and the Zipliens portal.

The successful candidate is organized, detail-oriented, and accountable for results. The position is primarily hands-on, with opportunities to contribute to process design, including collections strategy by client segment, automation of routine client communications, and management reporting.
