What a typical day looks like:

Prepare and oversee weekly pay runs to third parties, whether by cheque, EFT/ACH or wire payments and obtain approval for disbursements per company policies and timelines. Process payables in the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, ensuring accuracy and integrity of vendor records, following up on outstanding items and making necessary adjustments following established A/P policies and procedures. Working knowledge of a manufacturing setting, familiar with 3-way matching, reconcile receiving reports and other documentation to supplier invoices/credits. Verify authorizations and calculations on invoices/credits/receiving vouchers and receiving reports. Reconcile supplier statements and respond to vendor and employee enquires in a knowledgeable and timely manner. Review all credit balances, refunds and adjustments, and accurately apply adjustments and/or corrections while providing relevant back up documentation. Review & balance A/P batches; prepare and distribute payment reports and statistics to key personnel. Assist with period-end closing, meeting close timelines. Post and reconcile payments to General Ledger, and post A/P data to profit/loss reports, balance sheets, and income statements, and prepare and/or produce other required documentation. Continue to improve the payment process, maintaining a “how do we improve” mentality. Ensure the strict confidentiality and privacy of the Company’s financial records. Perform additional tasks as required or assigned.

Strong problem identification and problem resolution skills, and demonstrated diplomatic, negotiation and conflict resolution skills. Effective attention to detail, with a high degree of accuracy, and ability to work under time pressures with high volume payable processing and to meet deadlines generally, and, specifically, during the period-end and annual accounting close cycles. Strong planning, prioritizing and execution skills. Effective communication skills, both verbal and written, with ability to develop and sustain successful internal and external working relationships. Self-directed, with ability to work successfully both independently and within a team environment.
