Key Responsibilities

• Review and validate a high volume of invoices in a shared workflow environment.
• Audit invoice data for accuracy, including vendor names, account numbers, dates, quantities, totals, and other key details.
• Match invoices to purchase orders and receiving documentation to ensure proper payment processing.
• Verify invoices are coded to the correct chart of accounts and routed to appropriate approvers.
• Support invoice processing across multiple business entities, including international transactions and foreign currency invoices.
• Investigate payment delays, resolve discrepancies, and follow up with internal teams to ensure timely payment.
• Escalate issues when necessary and help drive invoice resolution.
• Maintain accuracy while managing competing priorities and tight deadlines.

Qualifications

• Previous Accounts Payable experience required.
• Experience working with purchase orders and invoice matching strongly preferred.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to identify discrepancies quickly.
• Comfortable working in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment.
• Self-motivated and proactive with the ability to work independently after training.

What We're Looking For

• An engaged professional who can hit the ground running each day.
• Someone who takes ownership of their work and does not require constant direction.
• A team player who enjoys collaborating while maintaining a high level of individual accountability.
