Job Description

Job Title: Accounts Payable Specialist (AKA Money Maestro)

 


Job Overview:

Are you a detail-obsessed spreadsheet wizard who loves keeping things organized and making sure the numbers add up? Do you have a knack for building solid relationships with vendors while ensuring payments go out on time, every time? If so, we want YOU to join our fun and growing finance team as an Accounts Payable Specialist!

We’re on the lookout for someone who is as excited about keeping our accounts in tip-top shape as we are. Whether you're reconciling invoices, handling payments, or solving accounting puzzles, this is the role for you. Bonus points if you’re a fan of a good challenge and love a fast-paced environment!

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Invoice Whisperer: Review, verify, and process invoices like a pro, ensuring they’re accurate and in line with company policies.
  • Payment Ninja: Make sure vendors get paid on time while keeping everything in check.
  • Discrepancy Detective: Reconcile vendor statements and track down any discrepancies like Sherlock Holmes with a calculator.
  • Report Rockstar: Keep the team informed with regular, accurate accounts payable reports and aging schedules.
  • Team Player: Work hand-in-hand with internal teams and vendors to solve problems and answer questions.
  • Month-End Magician: Help us close out the month (and year!) with accurate financials.
  • Document Diva: Keep meticulous records of all accounts payable transactions for smooth sailing.
  • And of course… other exciting accounting adventures as needed!

What We’re Looking For:

  • A Sharp Eye for Detail: You notice when something’s a little off—because those small things make a big difference.
  • Experience with the Numbers Game: Previous accounts payable experience is a plus, but if you’re a quick learner, we’ll train you up!
  • Tech-Savvy: You’re comfortable with accounting software (bonus if you’ve worked with [Insert Software, e.g., QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle]) and can rock Excel like a spreadsheet superstar.
  • Communication Skills: You can explain complex accounting terms in a way that makes sense to anyone. Bonus if you enjoy building relationships with vendors and coworkers.
  • Organized to the Max: Deadlines are your friend. You manage multiple tasks and stay cool under pressure.

Extra Points If You Have:

  • A degree in Accounting or Finance (but if you're self-taught and a numbers whiz, that’s awesome too!).
  • A sense of humor—because let’s face it, accounting doesn’t have to be boring.
