Accounts Payable Specialist

Precoa, Portland, OR, United States


Own the Details and Never Stop Progressing

You’re someone who notices what others miss. You don’t just process transactions. You question them, validate them, and make sure they are right. You take pride in accuracy, but you also understand how your work connects to the bigger picture of a growing business. The Accounts Payable Specialist role is not a back‑office, heads‑down accounting role. You will be the owner of key processes across expense reporting, corporate credit cards, and accounts payable, working directly with employees, vendors, and cross‑functional teams. If you enjoy solving problems, asking the right questions, and bringing structure to areas that are still evolving, this role gives you real ownership and visibility.

What You’ll Do (and Why You’ll Love Doing It)

Own expense reporting and corporate card processes

You’ll manage Concur and corporate credit card activity end‑to‑end, ensuring accuracy, identifying inconsistencies, and protecting the business from risk. Your attention to detail directly impacts our financial integrity and trust.

Turn invoices into clean, reliable financial data

You’ll process supplier invoices in Oracle, ensuring proper classification and accuracy. Your work helps maintain clean financial records that leaders rely on to make decisions.

Bring clarity to ambiguous or unclear transactions

When something doesn’t make sense, you won’t ignore it. You’ll investigate, ask questions, and work with internal teams or vendors to resolve issues. This is where your judgment and communication skills set you apart.

Operate at the center of cross‑functional collaboration

You’ll regularly interact with employees, field teams, and accounting partners, helping others navigate expense processes and ensuring alignment across the organization. If you enjoy working with people, this role keeps you connected.

Help build better results‑focused processes over time

This is a growing team without overly rigid systems. You’ll have the opportunity to improve workflows, create structure, and raise the standard for how work gets done.
