We are looking for an Accounts Payable Specialist to join a team in Ottawa, Ontario on a Contract basis. This opportunity is well suited to someone who brings strong accuracy, sound judgement, and the ability to communicate effectively with suppliers and internal stakeholders. The role focuses on managing a high volume of invoices, maintaining organized payment records, and supporting day-to-day accounts payable operations using ERP or comparable accounting software.
Responsibilities:• Enter and review a large volume of utility-related invoices, including hydro, gas, and water charges, ensuring information is recorded accurately in the accounting system.
• Assign proper account codes and verify supporting details so that transactions are posted correctly and in line with internal procedures.
• Communicate with vendors to respond to invoice questions, resolve discrepancies, and follow up on outstanding items with careful attention to detail.
• Support payment activities by preparing items for processing, tracking due dates, and helping maintain timely disbursements.
• Reconcile invoice data against purchase or billing information to identify errors, missing details, or duplicate entries before payment is issued.
• Maintain complete and well-organized accounts payable records to support reporting, audits, and month-end activities.
• Work with accounting and operational teams to address issues affecting approvals, coding, or vendor account balances.
• Use ERP, Concur, ADP, or similar financial systems to manage payable transactions and update vendor or invoice information as needed.
• At least 2 years of experience in accounts payable or a closely related accounting support role.
• Hands-on experience with ERP platforms or comparable accounting software; exposure to Concur, ADP, or similar tools is considered an asset.
• Strong understanding of invoice processing, account coding, vendor coordination, and payment handling.
• High level of attention to detail with the ability to manage large transaction volumes accurately.
• Clear verbal and written communication skills for working with vendors and internal contacts.
• Ability to prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, and remain organized in a fast-paced environment.
• Proficiency with accounts payable documentation, cheque processing, and financial record maintenance.
