Who We Are

Spark TS is a pioneering third-party administrator (TPA) specializing in providing cutting-edge safety and compliance software and service solutions (CFR Part 243) for the railroad and transportation sectors through our innovative Rail Tasker™ mobile application. Fostering safer work environments, our services encompass drug and alcohol testing program management, operations testing, safety alert briefings and training. Our clients trust us to equip them with the tools they need to respond quickly to changing compliance and safety challenges.

Why this Position Matters

The TPA Administrative Assistant and Billing Clerk role is crucial as it provides comprehensive administrative support essential to the smooth functioning of the TPA program. Handling customer invoicing, billing statement processing, and overall task management are key responsibilities that directly impact the efficiency and accuracy of our services. While this role may operate in the background, its contributions are significant within the TPA team and in maintaining our reputation as a trusted industry leader and partner in managing clients' drug and alcohol testing programs.

Responsibilities

This role involves preparing customer invoices, updating records, reconciling payments, and monitoring customer subscriptions. Additionally, the position includes assisting with billing issues, researching billing and account details, and maintaining accurate demographic records. Organizing and overseeing files, documents, and records associated with TPA accounts is crucial, alongside promptly addressing inquiries from clients, staff, and vendors to provide excellent customer service.

Collaborating with the TPA team on client onboarding procedures, including setting up laboratory and MRO accounts, is part of the role, as well as handling background checks, quality assurance checks, and data entry tasks. Advocating for customers by listening actively, being empathetic, and offering efficient and cost-effective solutions takes precedence. Proactively identifying areas for improvement based on customer feedback and metrics is key to enhancing performance and efficiency. While extending administrative support to the department Vice President and team leaders when necessary, also being open to taking on any other related duties assigned completes the range of responsibilities.
