Reporting to the Finance Accounting Supervisor, this fully remote role is responsible for locating and processing Customs Entry Summaries, tracking duties on the Master Tariff Log, allocating costs to correct projects/scopes, and setting up Potential Change Orders (PCOs) to ensure clients are accurately billed.

Responsibilities

• Retrieve Entry Summaries from vendor portals (TQL WiseGrid, CH Robinson), isolate relevant pages into PDFs, and redact proprietary information following standard naming and file-management conventions.
• Cross-reference container and PO numbers against tracking reports and consult with Project Managers to tie each shipment to its respective project(s), scope(s), and PO(s).
• Record importer file numbers, entered values, duties, entry dates, countries of origin, shippers, HTSUS codes, rates, and individual line-item duties.
• Break out entered values and duties across POs, scopes, and projects, properly splitting tariffs on multi-project or multi-rate shipments.
• Build PCO Excel/PDF files using templates, apply sales tax by jurisdiction, apply OHP per agreements, and verify billing eligibility before charging clients.
• Coordinate effectively with PMs, Sales, Accounting, and shipping vendors to resolve complex, multi-variable shipping scenarios.

Requirements

• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel (filtering, lookups, multi-column data management, formulas).
• High attention to detail and accuracy in data entry, financial calculations, and file management.
• Familiarity with PDF editing tools.
• Ability to interpret customs/import documentation (Entry Summaries, HTSUS codes, duty rates).
• Strong organizational skills and disciplined file/folder management.
• Effective communication skills to collaborate with internal teams and external vendors.

Strongly Preferred

• Background in construction, commercial products, or supply-chain cost management.
• Working knowledge of tariff/duty refund processes and evolving trade regulations.
• Experience allocating shared costs across multiple projects and cost centers.

What We're Looking For

• Meticulous problem solver comfortable managing complex, multi-variable scenarios.
• High ownership and accountability ~ errors directly impact project cost recovery and client billing.
• Excellent organizational discipline with a systematic approach to data tracking.
