Accounts Payable Analyst
Chewy • Plantation, Florida • Full Time
Posted on Sun, Aug 9, 2026
Job Description:
Role Overview
The Accounts Payable Analyst is responsible for reviewing, validating, and resolving recovery claims identified by third-party post-payment auditors, while also proactively identifying recovery opportunities internally. The role collaborates with vendors, Category Managers, Vendor Rebates, Accounts Payable, and Finance to address discrepancies, optimize recoveries, and implement controls to prevent recurring issues.
This position blends traditional AP expertise with analytical and audit-focused responsibilities, supporting both cash recovery and continuous improvement initiatives.
What You’ll Do:
Key Responsibilities
Review and validate recovery claims submitted by third-party post-payment auditors ensuring compliance with company policy and recovery eligibility criteria.
Ensure claims are supported by appropriate documentation, including invoices, payments, contracts, and pricing details; approve, reject, or request clarification as needed.
Partner with vendors and Category Managers to review claims, clarify discrepancies, and support negotiations.
Leverage Oracle, Snowflake, to review data
Work directly with vendors to negotiate refunds, credits, or offsets
Track and manage claims from identification through resolution, monitoring claim status, recoveries, and resolution timelines while coordinating cross-functionally with Accounts Payable, Legal, and Finance to resolve disputes and support timely outcomes.
Analyze recurring post-audit findings to uncover underlying process, system, or vendor-related root causes. Assess patterns across transactions, suppliers, and business units to distinguish one-off errors from systemic issues. Translate findings into actionable insights that support process improvements, control enhancements, and prevention of future overpayments.
Ensure recoveries are accurately applied and recorded in the Oracle
Own and maintain detailed post-audit recovery dashboards and tracking tools to monitor identified claims. Use dashboards to surface trends, root causes, and recurring issues to support continuous process improvement.
Prepare and distribute regular reporting on post-audit activity, including identified claims, recovered amounts, and open claim aging. Analyze aging trends to prioritize follow-up, escalate stalled recoveries, and ensure timely resolution. Provide clear summaries and insights to stakeholders to support financial accuracy, cash recovery performance, and audit transparency.
Partner cross-functionally with Internal Audit and Finance leadership to support ad-hoc and recurring reporting requests related to post-audit findings and recoveries.
