• Experience coding transactions across departments, projects, locations, or legal entities.
• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including formulas, lookups, filters, pivot tables, and reconciliation schedules.
• Strong attention to detail, organization, and ability to independently research routine discrepancies before escalation.

Responsibilities

• Enter, code, review, and process vendor and contractor invoices, including validation of the correct legal entity, project, department, general ledger account, payment terms, approvals, and supporting documentation.

• Maintain accurate vendor records, support W-9 collection and validation, respond to routine vendor inquiries, and assist with annual 1099 preparation and corrections.

• Monitor billing completeness, identify delivered work that has not been invoiced, follow up on missing support, process routine invoice corrections or reissues, and assist with collection follow-up as assigned.
• Record and apply customer payments to open receivables and research unapplied or unidentified cash receipts.
• Prepare monthly bank reconciliations for assigned accounts, including matching receipts and disbursements to the general ledger and researching outstanding checks, deposits, transfers, or other reconciling items.

• Prepare assigned monthly account reconciliations for lower- to moderate-complexity balance sheet and operating accounts, including AP, AR, clearing accounts, prepaid expenses, deposits, advances, cash-related accounts, and other accounts assigned by the Accounting Manager or Controller.
• Maintain complete reconciliation support that clearly explains the account balance, reconciling items, and required follow-up.

• Support new vendor and customer setup, required documentation, billing terms, and purchase-order requirements.
