• Support weekly and biweekly payment runs by preparing payment batches in NetSuite and coordinating payment release for ACH, check, and wire payments.
• Partner with vendors, employees, cost center owners, FP&A, and third-party service providers to resolve invoice, payment, vendor setup, and reimbursement questions.
• Handle accounts payable mailbox intake and invoice routing, including invoices received electronically or by mail, and help ensure complete support is retained for processing and audit review.
• Prepare credit applications for vendor accounts.
• Research and resolve payable issues by working directly with employees, vendors, and internal stakeholders.
• Review vendor statements, support account reconciliations, and help identify and resolve open or aged payables in a timely manner.
• Assist with month-end close activities, including AP accrual support, journal entries, AP aging review, and account reconciliations, as needed.
• Assist with audit requests by gathering support for vendor data, invoice approvals, payment batches, employee expense reports, and related internal controls.
• Support employee expense and corporate card processes in SAP Concur, including expense report review, employee profile updates, and follow-up on policy or documentation exceptions.

Who You Are:

• A minimum of five years of related experience, preferably in a public company or SOX-controlled environment.
• Strong understanding of accounts payable processes, vendor master data, payment controls, accruals, reconciliations, and U.S. GAAP.
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working with ERP, expense management, and banking platforms.
• Preferred experience with Zone Capture, NetSuite, SAP Concur, and Bank of America CashPro.
• Demonstrated ability to work accurately in a high-volume environment, manage competing priorities, and communicate clearly with internal and external stakeholders.
