We are looking for an experienced Accounts Payable Analyst to join a busy finance team on a contract basis. This position is suited to a hands-on, detail-oriented individual who can manage high-volume accounts payable activities, maintain payment accuracy across several entities and currencies, and help keep operations running smoothly during a period of increased demand. The successful candidate will contribute both strategic oversight and day-to-day processing support while working closely with internal partners to ensure vendors are paid correctly and on time.

Responsibilities:

• Manage end-to-end accounts payable activities for multiple active entities, ensuring invoices and payments are processed accurately and within established timelines.

• Review and complete payment runs, confirm banking details, and verify that payment amounts and currencies align with supporting documentation before release.

• Process a high volume of invoices, employee expense claims, non-purchase-order items, and corporate card transactions while maintaining strong attention to coding accuracy.

• Apply correct general ledger, budget, and capital allocations to invoices and investigate discrepancies when submitted information is incomplete or inconsistent.

• Use accounting and expense management systems to support payment processing, month-end activities, vendor record review, and data reconciliation across integrated platforms.

• Prepare and analyze accounts payable data in Excel, including reporting, reconciliations, and trend review to support operational decision-making.

• Work with invoices and supporting documents from international vendors, including items received in other languages, to confirm completeness and correctness.

• Collaborate with the AP Manager to reduce backlog, support entry-level team members, and address vendor or internal stakeholder concerns in a timely and detail-oriented manner.

• Contribute to month-end close by completing reconciliations, resolving outstanding items quickly, and supporting required adjustments within tight deadlines.

• Adapt to changing workflows, system connections, and team priorities while helping maintain consistency and control within the accounts payable function.

• 5+ years of experience in accounts payable within a high-volume, multi-entity environment.
• Demonstrated ability to process and review payments across multiple currencies with a strong focus on accuracy and control.
• Hands-on experience with ERP and accounting platforms, including exposure to systems such as Concur, Acumatica, SAP, or similar tools.
• Strong knowledge of invoice processing, vendor management, expense administration, and payment batching.
• Advanced Excel skills with the ability to work with formulas, lookups, pivot tables, and data exports for analysis.
• Solid understanding of general ledger coding, reconciliations, and month-end accounts payable support.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with internal teams, vendors, and less experienced colleagues.
• Capable of organizing competing priorities and meeting deadlines in a fast-paced finance environment.
