Accounting Specialist

Smith Energy

Fueling Growth | Powering Performance
At Smith Energy, we're more than a fuel and energy provider; we're a trusted partner that helps keep businesses, farms, industries, and communities running every day. Behind every fuel delivery, every customer interaction, and every operational decision is a team of dedicated professionals working together to ensure our customers have the energy they need when they need it.
For decades, we've built our reputation on reliability, service, and relationships. We take pride in being a company where customers know us by name and employees feel like family. Our success is rooted in a hands-on, team-first culture where people support one another, communicate openly, and take ownership of their work.

If you're looking for an opportunity to join a supportive team where your contributions are valued, and your work has a direct impact on daily operations, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role - What A Day In The Life Looks Like:


As an Accounting Specialist, you'll serve as a key support resource for both our accounting and operational functions. Your day may begin by reviewing fuel orders and invoices or ensuring all transactions are accurate and processed on time. Throughout the day, you'll communicate with customers regarding account inquiries, coordinate with internal teams, reconcile payment discrepancies, and maintain critical financial and operational records.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys balancing administrative responsibilities with accounting-related tasks, thrives in an open environment, and takes pride in keeping processes organized and running smoothly.

Job Duties:

  • Process and track fuel orders, deliveries, and invoices to ensure accuracy and timely payment processing
  • Assist with accounts receivable functions, including invoice verification, payment processing, and reconciliation of discrepancies
  • Respond to customer inquiries regarding fuel orders, billing questions, and account status via phone, email, and in person
  • Provide administrative support by scheduling meetings, preparing reports, and managing correspondence
  • Maintain and update internal databases, spreadsheets, filing systems, and other company records
  • Support compliance and documentation processes by ensuring records are accurate, complete, and easily accessible
  • Organize and distribute mail, order office supplies, and assist with general office operations
  • Collaborate with team members across departments to support daily business operations and customer needs
Required Qualifications - What You Bring To The Table:
  • High School Diploma or equivalent required
  • 2-3 years of administrative, accounting support, or office experience
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, including Excel, Word, and Outlook
  • Understanding of basic accounting procedures and accounts payable/receivable processes
  • Strong attention to detail with a commitment to accuracy
Benefits - What We Offer:
  • Full Medical, Dental, Vision, and Disability Insurance
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
  • Six Paid Federal Holidays
  • 401(k) with 3% Company Match

Why Smith Energy:


At Smith Energy, we know that great companies are built by great people. That's why we're committed to creating a workplace where employees feel supported, respected, and empowered to make an impact. When you join Smith Energy, you're not just taking a job; you're becoming part of a team that values collaboration, accountability, and service excellence. We believe in investing in our people, providing opportunities to grow, and recognizing the contributions that help drive our success every day.

Whether you're assisting customers, supporting operations, or helping maintain accurate financial records, your work matters. You'll have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, contribute to a strong team culture, and play an important role in an organization that keeps businesses and communities running.
