Role Description Hi, I’m Terre Holmes, Accounts Payable Manager, and I’m looking for a Contractor Accounts Payable Coordinator to support the day-to-day operations of our Accounting team. This is a mid-level role - we're looking for someone who already gets the fundamentals of accounting and understands the why behind how we process payables, not just the mechanics of getting an invoice from A to B. You should be able to connect what you're doing day-to-day to where the team is headed, so we're building together instead of you needing a lot of hand-holding along the way. This is a great role for someone who is detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You'll work closely with our AP Manager and broader Accounting team to ensure timely, accurate payables and solid financial hygiene. One thing we want to be upfront about: this role carries real ownership and can be demanding at times. If you're looking for a steady, identical-every-day kind of job, this probably isn't it. If you want a role where the work matters and you're trusted to run with it, that's exactly what we're building. - Process incoming invoices with speed and accuracy, ensuring correct vendor setup, GL coding, and department allocation - Review invoices for completeness and follow up on missing or incorrect information - Monitor the AP inbox and route questions or requests to the appropriate internal stakeholders - Onboard new vendors in our accounting system and maintain up-to-date vendor records - Respond to vendor inquiries with clear, professional communication - Match invoices to agreements or supporting documentation when applicable - Reconcile vendor statements against AP records and flag discrepancies - Reconcile corporate credit card transactions and investigate declined charges - Support weekly payment runs by preparing payment batches and updating trackers - Maintain organized digital records to support audits, reporting, and month-end close - Assist with light month-end activities, including invoice compilation for accruals - Contribute to ongoing AP process improvements and data clean-up initiatives Qualifications - Mid-level AP experience - we're specifically not looking for someone entry-level - Solid grasp of accounting fundamentals, including accruals and prepaid amortizations (a degree isn't required if you've built this knowledge through hands-on AP experience) - Startup experience is a big plus - Strong attention to detail and a high bar for data accuracy - Clear, professional written communication skills - Comfort managing routine, deadline-driven work in a remote environment, with the composure to stay steady even when things get a little stressful - Willingness to ask questions, flag issues, and escalate appropriately - Experience with Ramp is a plus, especially Ramp Bill Pay. Requirements - Enjoy structured, process-driven work and take pride in getting the details right - Stay organized and calm when handling a steady flow of tasks - Communicate proactively and follow through consistently - Prefer clean books and tidy records over "we'll fix it later" Logistics - Hours: Full time - 40 hours/week - Location: Remote, located in the US or Canada - Contract: 6-months, with possible extension/conversion - Compensation: $40USD/hour - Collaboration: Works closely with Accounts Payable Manager Our Process - No gotchas, no trick questions — just a clear, human process designed to help both of us decide if this is a good fit. - 30-minute Zoom call with a Recruiter - 30-minute Zoom call with the AP Manager - 30-minute Zoom call with Leadership - Take-home scenario exercise, followed by a final review call with the AP Manager - All final candidates will be asked to complete a background check and employment verification as part of our pre-engagement process. Join us! Check out our careers page for more information about why you should come work with us! We believe in empathy, transparency, responsibility, and, yes, a little awkwardness.
