Job description

Hello potential future Oatly employee. It’s us, the original oatmilk company that started in Sweden back 25 or so years ago and has since expanded to the U.S. where we’ve continued growing at a rate such that we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oatmilk flowing.

Sustainability, health, and transparency are the core values that guide everything we do. Basically, we exist to help people live a healthier life without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process, and to change the food system for the better. We drive that change through the power of oats and through a significant reduction in cow’s milk consumption. If any of this resonates with you, then maybe you’d like to work for Oatly, too. Now onto the formal stuff.

We are looking for an Accounts Payable Analyst to join our team. This is a great opportunity to be a part of a fast-paced, extremely successful, high-energy company. The role will report to our Senior Accounting Manager.

All qualified applicants must reside in Eastern Standard Time or Central Standard Time due to business need.

Here are the things we want to hire you to do:

• Interact daily with vendors in a professional manner regarding payment details, statement reconciliation and overdue/missing invoices

• Process new vendor onboarding, invoices, vendor inquiries

• Provide prompt, thorough, and accurate responses to internal and external inquiries

• Assist with audits, coding of expenses, reconciliations, and adherence to company policy of invoices, corporate credit cards, and employee reimbursements

• Prepare monthly balance sheet reconciliations, including bank recs

• Review and research open items and open credits on vendor statements
  

• Interact with various departments for invoice authorization

• Investigate invoice and PO mismatches; coordinate with purchasing, receiving, and vendors to ensure timely resolution

• Prepare and process weekly payment runs

• Prepare SOX controls within the purchase-to-pay framework

• Assist with ad hoc projects as required

• Domestic travel 1 – 2xs per year

Here are the things we think you need:

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting

• At least one year of experience in accounting or accounts payable

• Experience working for a mid tolarge sized CPG company preferred

• Excellent organization and time management skills

• Strong communication skills, presence, and interpersonal skills

• Willing and able to communicate effectively with various internal and external customers

• Intermediate knowledge of Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, vLookups, functions and formulas)

• Must demonstrate comprehension of the General Ledger and Chart of Accounts and where they flow within the Financial Statement; basic knowledge of Prepaid Expenses, and Accruals preferred

• Accurate and timely data entry skills with strong attention to detail

• Must be a detail-oriented self-starter with the ability to work independently and within a team environment

• Exposure to ERP and AP tools such as Microsoft Dynamics, Concur, ExFlow, or similar systems preferred

• Basic understanding of workflow processes, and experience or interest in learning how automation tools such as Power Automate, PowerBI, and Python can support them

And here’s another list of qualities we think make a good Oatly team member:

• You feel connected to our mission of encouraging health, sustainability, and transparency
• You are a self-starter who doesn’t need direct supervision to motivate you for success – we believe strongly in building a culture of individual accountability and ownership and need partners that can embrace that mentality
• You are ready to make your mark in a smaller, growing brand leveraging your experience to deliver amazing results and build an outstanding company
• You have an entrepreneurial spirit in that you’re comfortable with ambiguity and are energized by the process of building something lasting from the ground up
• You enjoy sharing your quirkiness and talents with your coworkers

Another bulleted list felt redundant, so we wrote this long sentence with all the ways we sweeten the deal to work with us, like providing flexible vacation for starters, really great benefits, genuinely great coworkers who want to see the company and each other succeed, and a start-up vibe with an established company history.

The salary for this role will be based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to geographic location, internal equity, experience, education, specialty, and training. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific location. Compensation may also include bonus, commission, or equity as applicable.Our good faith estimate for base salary is $80,000.

Our team is available to support you through the hiring process with reasonable accommodations to enable a barrier-free interview experience. We will maintain candidate privacy and confidentiality to enable an unbiased and equitable experience.
