Job Description

We are looking for an Accounts Payable Clerk to support day-to-day payables operations for a client of ours in San Francisco, California. This Long-term Contract opportunity is ideal for someone who thrives in a deadline-driven setting, values accuracy, and can manage a steady flow of invoice and payment activity. The role will contribute to timely financial reporting, vendor payment execution, and adherence to accounting procedures while partnering effectively with internal stakeholders.

Responsibilities:

• Manage a high volume of incoming vendor invoices by validating details, assigning proper accounting codes, and confirming required approvals before entry.

• Coordinate recurring payment cycles through approved methods such as electronic payments, checks, and wires to ensure vendors are paid on schedule.

• Reconcile accounts payable records with the general ledger and investigate discrepancies to maintain accurate financial data.

• Assist with month-end activities by preparing accrual support, completing account tie-outs, and helping finance meet close deadlines.

• Monitor compliance with established accounting guidelines and internal controls throughout the payables process.

• Respond to documentation and audit requests by gathering records and organizing support for reviews.

• Partner with cross-functional teams to resolve invoice issues, payment questions, and outstanding approval items.

• Recommend and support process enhancements that improve efficiency, accuracy, and consistency within accounts payable operations.

• At least 2 years of hands-on experience in accounts payable or a closely related accounting support role.
• Strong Excel skills with the ability to work efficiently with spreadsheets, reconciliations, and payment data.
• Proven ability to process invoices accurately, including coding, validation, and payment preparation.
• Comfortable handling deadlines and transaction volume in a fast-moving work environment.
• Clear communication skills with the ability to work effectively across finance and non-finance teams.
• Solid understanding of accounts payable controls, reconciliations, and general accounting practices.
• Experience with NetSuite or Ramp is helpful, but not required.
