Accounts Payable Specialist

About the role

We’re looking for an Accounts Payable (AP) Specialist to own and elevate our AP operations as we scale. In this role, you’ll manage the full payment lifecycle, ensure our suppliers are paid accurately and on time, and play a key role in strengthening the systems and workflows behind our finance operations.

This is not a “keep things running” role. It is a “build it better every day” role. You’ll be expected to spot inefficiencies, improve processes, and help design scalable solutions that can support growing transaction volumes.

If you enjoy bringing structure to complexity, taking ownership end-to-end, and improving how things work instead of just executing them, you’ll thrive here.

What you’ll do

Own the end-to-end AP process
Manage supplier payments from invoice validation through to execution, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and proper recording across all transactions.

Manage supplier relationships and issue resolution
Act as the main point of contact for suppliers on billing discrepancies, missing information, and invoice corrections. Proactively follow up to resolve issues, secure credits when needed, and maintain strong, professional relationships.

Lead invoice validation and cross-functional coordination
Oversee vendor bill validation and work closely with Operations to investigate and resolve discrepancies. Drive issues to resolution with a strong sense of ownership and urgency.

Improve and scale AP processes
Continuously identify gaps, inefficiencies, and risks in existing workflows. Design and implement improvements that make the AP function more reliable, efficient, and scalable.

Drive automation and efficiency
Look for opportunities to reduce manual work through automation, system improvements, or better tooling. Help evolve the AP function so it can support significantly higher volume with minimal friction.

• Solid understanding of AP principles, invoice processing, and payment workflows
• Natural problem solver who improves processes instead of just following them
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders
• Clear and professional communication style, especially when handling supplier issues

Mindset

• You think in systems, not just tasks
• You proactively improve processes instead of waiting for direction
• You are comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
• You build with scale in mind, not just today’s workload

Nice to have
