Non-Clinical - Finance/Accounting/Accounting Analyst

Financial Analyst

We are seeking a highly analytical Accounting or Financial Analyst with experience supporting accounts payable functions within a complex, high-volume environment. The ideal candidate will bring a strong foundation in accounting or finance, with the ability to interpret data, identify trends, and support process improvements beyond routine transaction processing. This role requires someone who can work independently, understand end-to-end financial processes, and collaborate cross-functionally with finance, procurement, and operational teams. Experience in hospital or university environments is preferred, along with familiarity with large ERP systems such as Oracle. Candidates should demonstrate stability in their work history, strong problem-solving skills, and the potential to transition into a long-term, full-time role.

What we are NOT looking for:

• Candidates whose experience is primarily transactional AP (invoice entry, 3-way match, check runs)
• Titles such as Accounts Payable Specialist, AP Clerk, or AP Processor as their primary background
• Profiles heavily focused on high-volume processing without analytical or accounting depth
• Candidates with short-term, contract-heavy work history without stability
• Junior-level candidates or those with limited experience in accounting or finance
• Candidates without a bachelor's degree
• Profiles lacking exposure to broader financial processes (reconciliations, reporting, analysis, process improvement)

Important notes:

• Avoid candidates who are primarily transactional AP processors
• Prioritize candidates who demonstrate critical thinking, adaptability, and the ability to ramp quickly
