We're seeking a detail-driven, analytical Accounting Specialist with a strong foundation in transactional finance and a hands-on approach to data integrity.

• Investigate and resolve pricing discrepancies, quantity variances, and missing documentation in collaboration with procurement and project teams

Payment Processing

• Partner with internal stakeholders to ensure timely and accurate vendor payments
• Prepare weekly payment batches (checks, ACH, and credit cards) in accordance with payment schedules

Vendor Statement Reconciliation

• Reconcile vendor statements monthly and resolve discrepancies directly with vendors
• Respond promptly and professionally to vendor inquiries regarding payments, discrepancies, and account balances

Process Improvement & Compliance

• Support process improvement initiatives to enhance AP efficiency, accuracy, and cycle times
• Assist with internal controls and standardized workflows
• Collaborate with operations, IT, and finance teams to streamline and standardize financial transactions

What we're looking for

• Experience: 1 year in accounting or transactional finance
• Technical Skills: Proficiency with ERP systems and financial software
• Investigative Mindset: Strong ability to research, analyze, and independently resolve transaction issues
• AP Expertise: Solid understanding of invoice processing, vendor statement reconciliation, and payment administration
