A cash and cheque collection job involves collecting payments from customers, managing accounts receivable, and maintaining accurate financial records. Cash and cheque collection involves the secure handling, recording, and deposit of cash and cheques received by a business or organization. It is a critical component of internal financial controls to prevent theft, minimize errors, and ensure timely and accurate accounting. Key responsibilities include contacting customers to arrange payments, processing different payment types like cash and checks, and reconciling accounts to ensure all transactions are correct. This role also requires strong communication and organizational skills to resolve disputes and manage a portfolio of client accounts. 

Responsibilities

  • Accept cash, cheques, or other forms of payment from customers or donors

  • For cheques, ensure they are made payable to the correct legal entity and are signed and dated correctly.

  • For third-party cheques (where the payee is not the organization), note the maker's name on the receipt

  • Payment collection: Contact customers via phone or email to collect on overdue accounts and ensure timely payments

  • Payment processing: Record and process various payment types, including cash, checks, credit cards, and electronic transfers.

  • Account reconciliation: Reconcile customer accounts to ensure payments are correctly applied to invoices and resolve discrepancies.

  • Customer communication: Address customer queries and disputes, and maintain a professional and friendly relationship while collecting payments.

  • Record keeping: Maintain accurate records of all collection activities, customer interactions, and account notes.

  • Credit and account management: Establish and monitor credit terms for new and existing customers, and escalate accounts that exceed credit limits.

  •  Reporting: Generate reports, such as monthly statements for customers.

  • Cash handling: Perform cash and check transactions, and reconcile cash floats at the end of a shift. 

  • Segregation of duties: No single person should be responsible for all stages of the collection process, from receiving funds to depositing them and recording them in the accounting system.

  • Timely deposits: All receipts should be deposited at the bank promptly, ideally within one business day, to reduce the risk of theft and ensure sufficient working capital.

  • Documentation: All transactions should be supported by pre-numbered receipts, deposit slips, and daily collection reports.

  • Bank reconciliation: A regular bank reconciliation should be performed by an independent employee to compare the company's records with the bank's statement, identifying any discrepancies like outstanding cheques or deposits in transit.

  • Access controls: Limit the number of people with access to cash and cheques, and use secure facilities like safes or locked tills to store funds.

  • Secure transport: If large amounts of cash are collected, use a secure transport service to move funds from the business to the bank.

  • Prepare daily bank deposits and deposit slips.
