- Partner with inventory, receiving, operations, and accounting teams to ensure purchasing information remains accurate and up to date.
- Manage the intake of vendor invoices and verify that purchase orders, receipts, and billing documents align before payment is processed.
- Investigate discrepancies involving pricing, quantities, freight charges, taxes, or receiving records and work with vendors to correct them promptly.
- Enter and code bills accurately in QuickBooks while maintaining complete vendor files, organized documentation, and reliable audit support.
- Assist with payment scheduling by preparing approved invoices and helping maintain clean accounts payable aging without duplicate charges or unsupported transactions.
- Support vendor onboarding by collecting required documentation, updating vendor records, and guiding suppliers on proper use of company purchasing tools.
- Participate in process improvement efforts by testing workflows, identifying control gaps, documenting procedures, and helping internal users and vendors adopt new systems.
- At least 3 years of experience in accounts payable, purchasing support, or a closely related finance or operations role.
- Hands-on experience processing invoices, coding bills, and assisting with payment runs in an organized accounts payable environment.
- Proficiency with QuickBooks and confidence maintaining accurate financial and vendor records across multiple transactions.
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to reconcile discrepancies involving invoices, purchase orders, and receiving documentation.
- Comfortable learning new technology and using business systems consistently to support purchasing and vendor management processes.
- Effective communication skills for working with vendors and cross-functional internal teams.
- Ability to manage multiple priorities, follow established procedures, and maintain accurate documentation in a deadline-driven setting.
