    Job Description



    Accounts Payable Specialist

    Looking for an Accounts Payable opportunity where you can make an immediate impact? Join a busy accounting team that needs a strong A/P professional to help streamline invoice processing and vendor support in a fast-paced environment.

    Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

    • Join a stable organization with an immediate need for accounting support.

    • Take ownership of high-volume A/P functions and become a key contributor to the team.

    • Gain exposure to invoice processing, PO reconciliations, vendor relations, and Excel reporting.

    • Work directly with accounting leadership and build valuable experience in a busy environment.

    • Potential for limited remote flexibility based on performance and manager approval.



    Key Responsibilities for the Accounts Payable Specialist:

    • Enter and process invoices accurately and efficiently.

    • Perform 3-way matching of invoices, purchase orders, and receipts.

    • Reconcile purchase orders and resolve discrepancies.

    • Communicate with vendors regarding payments, account inquiries, and issue resolution.

    • Utilize Excel functions, including Pivot Tables and Lookups, to support reporting and analysis.


    Qualifications for the Accounts Payable Specialist:

    • Prior Accounts Payable experience in a high-volume environment.

    • Experience with invoice entry, 3-way matching, and PO reconciliation.

    • Proficiency in Excel, including Pivot Tables and Lookup functions.

    • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Accounting preferred.
