Here is a more engaging, candidate-focused version that highlights impact, growth, and work environment — while keeping the core requirements intact.
Accounts Payable Specialist
Build your AP career with a nationally recognized industry leader
Join a company that powers some of the most impactful infrastructure projects in the country — from renewable energy farms to large-scale transmission and commercial construction. Consistently ranked among the Top 5 Specialty Electrical Construction Firms by Engineering News-Record, we are known for innovation, scale, and excellence — and our accounting team plays a critical role in making it all happen.
If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume AP environment and enjoy collaborating across teams to keep operations running smoothly, this is an opportunity to grow your expertise and make a visible impact.
What You’ll Do
As an AP Specialist, you’ll take ownership of full-cycle accounts payable in a high-volume, process-driven environment while partnering closely with internal teams and vendors.
Key responsibilities include:
Manage full-cycle, high-volume accounts payable, including 2-way and 3-way matching
Process invoices through an automated AP workflow and ensure proper approvals for non-PO invoices
Ensure accurate, timely vendor payments and proactively resolve discrepancies
Reconcile vendor statements and research invoice or payment issues
Process and audit employee expense reports
Apply and validate sales and use tax when applicable
Serve as a responsive point of contact for vendor and internal inquiries
Support internal and external audit activities
Maintain clear, up-to-date process documentation
Contribute to continuous process improvement and cross-team collaboration
This role is performed onsite in a company-designated office or field location.
What You Bring
5+ years of full-cycle accounts payable experience in a high-volume environment
Strong experience with 2-way and 3-way matching and vendor reconciliations
Comfort working with spreadsheets and large data sets
Proficiency with Microsoft Office (especially Excel) and ERP systems
High school diploma or GED required; Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Business, or related field preferred
Construction industry experience is a plus
Skills That Set You Apart
Strong understanding of AP systems and accounting workflows
Exceptional accuracy and attention to detail
Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple deadlines
Clear communicator who collaborates effectively across teams
Problem-solver who takes initiative to resolve issues quickly
Professional discretion when handling confidential information
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Work for a top-ranked national construction leader involved in major infrastructure and renewable energy projects
Be part of a high-impact accounting function that supports complex, large-scale operations
Collaborative environment where AP is valued as a key business partner
Opportunity to sharpen your technical skills and grow within a stable, established organization
