    Job Description

    Position Description:
    This is a back office position, focusing on supporting purchasing activities in the Communications department. The individual will be responsible for handling administrative and support tasks related to procurement.

    Skills Required:
    SAP ERP, Accounts Receivable, Accounting, Purchasing, Accounts Payable, SAP S4 HANA, SAP HANA
    Experience Required:
    Preferred Experience: This candidate should have at least 1-3 years of proficiency and experience in SAP IERP & ARIBA, purchase order & invoice processing and between 3-5 years working specifically within a Business Office support background.
    The role also involves managing invoices, tracking payments, overseeing budgets for financial compliance, and performing monthly corporate and department credit card reconciliation.
    You'll be responsible for payment processing through a variety of methods, supporting month-end close activities, and actively reconciling invoices to swiftly resolve any billing, shipping, or receiving discrepancies.
    Collaboration is key, as you'll interact with OEMs buyers for support and vendors to resolve issues or obtain vital information. Onboarding new vendors in Ariba or IERP, managing critical documents like scopes, SOWs, and W-9 forms for check requests, and executing the full purchase order process for the OEMs Communications group are essential parts of the role. Core competencies we're seeking include meticulous attention to detail, organizational excellence for managing complex filing systems, strong interpersonal and customer service skills, and a focus on back-office operations supporting purchasing activities rather than acting as a buyer. Only those with prior experience in accounts receivable, accounts payable, or payment management will be considered. The ideal candidate will have 3-5 years of proficiency and experience in SAP IERP & ARIBA, specifically within the PO, AP, and Work Order modules.

    Education Required:
