Job description

About the Role

We’re looking for an Accounts Payable Specialist who thrives in a fast-paced, detail-driven environment and takes pride in keeping things running smoothly. This is a highly visible, task-oriented role where you’ll manage daily invoice processing, vendor communication, and month-end support — all critical to keeping our operations on track.

If you enjoy structure, accuracy, and seeing your work directly contribute to the financial stability of the business, this is a great fit. You’ll join a tight-knit accounting team that values collaboration, accountability, and a good laugh now and then (NFL kickoff parties included).

What You’ll Do

• Process vendor invoices daily from a shared inbox — batch, review, and enter into ERP system.
• Communicate with vendors professionally to resolve issues, provide updates, and manage payment timelines.
• Prepare for weekly check runs — print checks and ACH payments based on management’s vendor review.
• Support month-end close activities, ensuring all items are entered and reconciled by the close deadline.
• Assist with credit card entry and ACH transactions, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
• Maintain vendor files and update past-due reports weekly using Excel.
• Gather, organize, and provide all requested AP documentation to auditors upon request.

What You’ll Bring

• 3–5 years of experience in Accounts Payable.
• Proficiency in Excel — comfortable creating pivot tables, VLOOKUP, IF statements, conditional formatting, data validation, exporting data, and updating reports.
• Strong attention to detail and excellent organizational skills.
• Ability to manage confidential information with discretion.
• Proven time management and prioritization skills in a fast-paced environment.
• Ability to work independently and communicate clearly across teams.
• A problem-solver’s mindset and a commitment to accuracy.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 6–12 months, you’ll have mastered our AP processes, established strong relationships with vendors, and become the go-to person for accurate, on-time processing. You’ll help us move from “catching up” to “running ahead.”

Why Join Us

• Fun, community-oriented company culture — we work hard and celebrate together.
• After 6–12 months of consistent performance, you’ll earn the flexibility to work one day remote per week.
• Be part of a close, supportive accounting team that values collaboration and transparency.

In compliance with pay transparency requirements, the wage range for this role is $22.00 – 26.00/hr. The rate range provided is a general guideline. When extending an offer, Adaptec Solutions considers factors including, but not limited to experience and geographic location. Adaptec Solutions also offers a variety of benefits including generous paid time off (PTO), 11 paid company holidays including your birthday, generous health plans, dental and vision insurance, HSA/FSA accounts, generous 401(k) match and immediate vesting, short-term/long term disability coverage and basic life/AD&D insurance and education assistance.
