We are looking for an Accounts Payable Consultant to join a team on a short term contract basis. This position is suited to a hands-on, detail-oriented accounting specialist who can oversee high-volume invoice activity while keeping payables accurate, timely, and well organized. The successful candidate will work across vendor, purchasing, and receiving workflows to address discrepancies, support reconciliations, and help maintain smooth day-to-day accounting operations.

Responsibilities:

- Manage the full cycle of vendor invoice review, coding, and processing to ensure accounts payable records remain current and accurate.
- Assist with bank reconciliations and contribute to general accounting tasks that support the accuracy of financial records.
- Partner closely with internal team members to gain a strong understanding of purchasing, receiving, and supplier billing workflows.
- Examine mismatches involving purchase orders, receiving documents, and invoices, including issues related to pricing or quantities.
- Communicate with vendors and internal stakeholders to clarify outstanding items and move invoices through the approval process efficiently.
- Take initiative in researching payment or documentation issues and resolve exceptions with minimal supervision.
- Maintain reliable daily accounting operations while process enhancements are introduced and refined.
- Apply sound accounting judgment to transactions by assessing their broader financial impact rather than focusing only on data entry.
- Demonstrated experience in Accounts Payable, including managing invoice processing and resolving payment-related issues.
- Robust understanding of accounting fundamentals, with the ability to recognize how transactions affect financial records.




- Experience supporting bank reconciliations and general accounting activities in a fast-paced environment.
- Ability to investigate discrepancies independently and identify root causes across purchasing, receiving, and invoicing documentation.
- Strong communication skills for working effectively with suppliers and internal business partners.
- High level of accuracy, organization, and attention to detail when managing competing priorities.
- Proven ability to operate independently while supporting continuous improvement in accounting processes.
