Some AP jobs are about processing invoices all day.

This one is about building an accounting career.

We are partnering with an established organization in the Centennial, CO that is looking for an unusually sharp Accounts Payable Specialist to join its corporate accounting team. They are absolutely willing to consider early career candidates, but they are selective about who joins this group.

They want someone bright, polished, positive, curious, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. Someone who asks good questions, communicates professionally, learns quickly, and takes pride in getting things right.

You’ll receive substantial training, work alongside talented accounting professionals, and gain experience in a sophisticated, high volume corporate environment. For the right person, AP is simply the starting point.

Why This One Is Different

• Up to $65,000 depending on experience
• Significant training and mentorship from experienced professionals
• Clear opportunity to grow beyond accounts payable
• Join an upbeat, highly collaborative team that likes working together
• Gain valuable experience within a structured corporate accounting environment
• Annual performance and compensation review
• Stable organization with excellent benefits and long term career opportunities

What You’ll Be Doing

• Process a high volume of invoices accurately and efficiently
• Perform three way matching between invoices, purchase orders, and receiving documentation
• Research discrepancies before invoices move through the payment process
• Communicate professionally with vendors and internal business partners
• Review coding, approvals, and supporting documentation for accuracy
• Assist with payment processing and vendor account maintenance
• Reconcile vendor statements and research outstanding items
• Support month end accounts payable activities
• Maintain clean documentation and follow established internal controls
• Look for opportunities to make processes more accurate and efficient

Who Will Stand Out

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, Economics, or a closely related field
• Minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA with transcripts available for verification
• Recent graduates with strong academics, internships, or relevant business experience are highly encouraged to apply
• Experienced candidates should bring high volume AP, three way match, purchasing, accounting, or similar experience
• Strong Excel skills and comfort learning new systems
• Ability to explain a problem clearly rather than simply escalating it
• Strong attention to detail and natural curiosity when something doesn't look right
• Professional presence when communicating with vendors, colleagues, and leadership
• Proven reliability, punctuality, and follow through

The Personality Piece Matters

• Positive: You contribute good energy even when things get busy
• Sharp: You pick things up quickly and connect the dots
• Curious: You want to understand why, not just follow a checklist
• Professional: You communicate thoughtfully and represent the team well
• Collaborative: You're comfortable asking questions and helping others
• Accountable: If you own something, people know it will get done
• Coachability: You welcome feedback and actually apply it
• Ambitious: You're interested in what you can learn next, not just what is on today's task list

What You Need To Know

• Location: Centennial, 80111
• Compensation: Up to $65,000
• Schedule: Fully onsite during training with potential Friday remote flexibility thereafter
• Hours: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM with a one hour lunch
• Employment Type: Full time, permanent
• Benefits: Comprehensive benefits including employer paid healthcare
• Start Date: ASAP
• Education: Bachelor's degree required
