Accounts Payable Specialist

CFS, Taft, CA, United States


Overview
Location:

Taft, CA (Onsite)

Salary:

$18 – $22/hour DOE

Join a company where your work directly supports daily operations and keeps the business moving. Our client is a well-established organization in Taft seeking an Accounts Payable Specialist to join a collaborative accounting team focused on accuracy, efficiency, and strong internal service. This is an opportunity to step into a role where your contributions are visible and valued.

This is more than a traditional AP role. You’ll support vendor relationships, month-end processes, and financial accuracy while partnering with multiple departments across the business.

The Opportunity
As an Accounts Payable Specialist, you’ll manage day-to-day accounts payable functions, support reconciliations, and help ensure vendors are paid accurately and on time. This role offers variety, ownership, and the chance to contribute to a well-run accounting department.

What You’ll Do

Process invoices, expenses, and check requests in a timely manner

Respond to vendor and internal inquiries regarding accounts payable activity

Reconcile AP and related accounts monthly

Verify invoices against purchase orders and packing slips

Support month-end and year-end close processes, including 1099 preparation

What We’re Looking For

Experience in accounts payable and general ledger functions

ERP or manufacturing system experience preferred

Strong organizational and communication skills

Oracle experience is a plus

Why This Role Stands Out

Stable organization with long-term opportunity

Hands-on role with visibility across accounting operations

Collaborative team environment with supportive leadership

Opportunity to grow within a dynamic business

If you’re looking for a role where you can own your work, stay organized, and contribute to a strong accounting team, this is a strong next step. Timing is everything. Whether you’re actively exploring or open to the right opportunity, we’d welcome the chance to connect. Many of our roles are not posted publicly—reach out to learn more.
