Part-Time Staffing Funding & Finance Consultant – Factoring / A/R / Reconciliation

Overview

This is a part-time independent consulting opportunity for an experienced staffing-industry finance/funding professional. The role is remote (U.S.) and begins with a paid diagnostic review.

Initial commitment: 3–4 hour paid diagnostic consultation

Ongoing opportunity: approximately 2–4 hours per week after the initial review (based on needs and fit)

Compensation: approximately $60–$100/hour depending on direct experience; target range approximately $80/hour

Responsibilities

The consultant will provide independent oversight and guidance related to payroll funding/factoring relationships, accounts receivable, invoice funding, reserves, fees, reconciliations, and internal financial controls. Expected support may include:

• Reviewing staffing-agency funding/factoring activity
• Reviewing invoice purchases and funding advances
• Reconciling expected funding against actual ACH deposits
• Reviewing reserve withholding and reserve releases
• Reviewing administrative/factoring fees and other deductions
• Reviewing A/R aging and outstanding client invoices
• Reviewing chargebacks, repurchases, credit memos, write-offs, and other adjustments
• Identifying unexplained discrepancies or potential duplicate/incorrect charges
• Reviewing funding and reconciliation reports
• Helping establish a reliable weekly and monthly funding reconciliation process
• Reviewing internal controls surrounding funding, invoicing, A/R, cash application, and company expenses
• Providing recommendations to improve finance workflow
• Working with the CFO and internal finance/bookkeeping support
• Helping train the internal team on proper funding reconciliation and reporting
• Providing independent feedback and recommendations to company leadership

The consultant may receive controlled access to relevant funding reports, accounting information, and other financial documentation after completing appropriate confidentiality requirements.

Required Experience

Direct experience is essential. Candidates should have experience in one or more of the following areas:

• Finance/accounting within a staffing agency
• Payroll funding or staffing factoring
• Staffing agency A/R and cash application
• Funding and reserve reconciliation
• Staffing agency controller or finance management
• Back-office financial operations for staffing companies
• VMS/MSP invoicing and reconciliation
• Healthcare staffing financial operations

Advance Partners (or similar staffing funding/factoring companies) experience is strongly preferred.

Healthcare staffing experience is preferred but not required if the candidate has significant staffing funding/factoring experience.

What We Are Not Looking For

This is not a traditional bookkeeping-only role.

General QuickBooks, tax preparation, or corporate accounting experience without staffing funding/factoring experience will not be sufficient.

Confidentiality

Because the engagement involves confidential financial, client, invoice, rate, and funding information, the selected consultant must sign an NDA/confidentiality agreement before receiving sensitive account information.

Compensation & Benefits

• Approximate pay rate: $60–$100/hour depending on direct experience
• Target range: approximately $80/hour
• Paid diagnostic consultation: 3–4 hours
• Potential ongoing consulting: approximately 2–4 hours per week

Location

• Remote – U.S.

Application Questions

Applicants should answer:

• How many years of direct staffing-industry finance or funding experience do you have?
• Which staffing funding/factoring companies have you personally worked with?
• Have you personally worked with Advance Partners? If yes, describe your experience and the reports or processes you managed.
• Briefly explain how you would reconcile a staffing invoice from client/VMS billing through funding advance, reserve withholding, fees, client payment, reserve release, and final bank deposit.
• Have you managed staffing agency A/R aging, chargebacks, repurchases, credit memos, or reserve reconciliations? Provide examples.
• Have you worked with VMS/MSP invoicing? If yes, which types of systems or clients?
• Are you comfortable beginning with a 3–4 hour paid diagnostic consultation and providing a brief written assessment of your findings and recommendations?
• If the initial consultation is successful, would you be available approximately 2–4 hours per week for ongoing review, guidance, and support?

Please be specific about your staffing funding/factoring experience—the role is intended for someone who has personally performed this work rather than someone seeking to learn the process during the engagement.
