Job description

Temporary Accounts Payable Specialist

Our client is seeking a detail-oriented and experienced Accounts Payable Specialist to join their team on a temporary basis. This position focuses on managing purchase orders, aged payables resolution, vendor reconciliations, and process documentation within a fast-paced, accuracy-driven environment. You will work collaboratively with site administrators, financial managers, and vendors to resolve outstanding issues and ensure accurate and timely record maintenance. The assignment is a 3-month engagement with an immediate start.

Key Responsibilities

  • Purchase Order (PO) & GR Clearing

Review unmatched purchase orders (POs) and goods receipt notes (GRNs), identifying discrepancies to determine if goods were received but not invoiced, or vice versa.

  • Coordinate and communicate with Site Administration teams and Regional Financial Managers to address mismatches and resolve issues promptly.
  • Close fully matched POs to release encumbrances and improve cash flow visibility.
  • Analyze GR / IR Clearing accounts and address lingering balances through thorough research and reconciliation.
  • Manage purchase order clearing and exception resolution, aligning with 3-way matching principles (PO, GRN, and invoice).
  • Aged Payable Resolution
  • Investigate invoices aged 60+ or 90+ days, determining the root cause of outstanding balances (e.g., missing POs, GRNs, or delayed approvals).

  • Match invoices to POs and receipts, ensuring process accuracy.
  • Liaise with vendors to confirm outstanding balances, request copies of missing invoices, and validate credits where applicable.
  • Identify and action debit balances or open credits, including applying credits or submitting refund requests when needed.
  • Vendor Statement Reconciliations
  • Request and reconcile monthly statements from top-tier vendors.

  • Validate open items on vendor statements against ERP records and flag any unrecorded invoices.
  • Investigate and resolve common discrepancies, such as missing credits, duplicate payments, or unapplied cash payments.
  • Maintain and update vendor records with reconciliation notes, ensuring the vendor log reflects the most recent reconciliation dates and outstanding items.
  • Documentation and Team Support
  • Maintain a shared tracker monitoring aged items, along with action owners, the steps taken, and updated resolution dates.

  • Identify and escalate recurring issues, including missing GRNs, vendor setup challenges, or PO and approval delays, to streamline processes or flag areas for improvement.
  • Foster collaboration within cross-functional teams, promoting a seamless accounts payable process.
  • Requirements Skills & Experience Required

  • Proficiency in SAP, or similar ERP systems.
  • Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Excel, including the ability to work with formulas, filters, lookups, and pivot tables.
  • Demonstrated experience in purchase order reconciliations, invoice matching, and vendor statement reconciliations.
  • Exceptional organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with fluency in discussing financial processes with stakeholders at varying levels.
  • Details & Work Arrangements

    Duration : 3 Months
