About the Role

We’re hiring for our client, a growing U.S.

-based company, seeking an Accounts Receivable / Accounts Payable Specialist (AR/AP) to own the day-to-day flow of money in and out of the business.

This is a high-impact, execution-driven accounting and finance operations role where accuracy, speed, organization, and follow-through are critical.

You will:

  • Process invoices and payments
  • Manage collections and vendor payments

Compliance & Controls

  • Ensure compliance with:
    • GAAP
    • IFRS
  • Maintain audit-ready financial records and documentation
Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with sales and operations teams to resolve billing issues
  • Support accounting teams during month-end close processes
What Makes You a Strong Fit
  • You are highly detail-oriented and catch errors others miss
  • You are comfortable managing high-volume financial transactions
  • You communicate professionally with vendors and customers
  • You are organized, structured, and process-driven
  • You can balance speed and accuracy effectively
  • You take ownership of your work and follow through consistently

  • AR collections within target DSO
  • Timely reconciliations for month-end close

Why This Role Stands Out
