• Prepare weekly employee expense reimbursements and maintain supporting documentation for payment records.
• Execute vendor disbursements through multiple payment methods, including checks, ACH, wire transfers, and card transactions.
• Support weekly cash planning by helping compile accounts payable payment projections and upcoming obligations.
• Complete monthly reconciliations for accounts payable, the general ledger, and bank activity, and assist with period-end close tasks.
• Provide documentation and transaction support during audit reviews, while also assisting with clerical finance duties and cross-coverage for accounts receivable when needed.

Qualifications:

• At least 3 years of hands-on accounts payable experience in an accounting or finance environment with strong attention to detail.
• Demonstrated ability to code invoices, enter vouchers, and process payments with a high degree of accuracy.
• Experience working with three-way match procedures and non-PO invoice processing.
• Proficiency with SAP or a comparable ERP system used for accounts payable transactions.
• Intermediate Microsoft Excel skills, including the ability to organize, review, and reconcile financial data.
