FULL TIMEREMOTE

Accounts Receivable / Accounts Payable Specialist (AR/AP) – Remote

QuickBooks | NetSuite | SAP | Xero | Bookkeeping

Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours

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
  • Maintain clean, audit-ready financial records
  • Support reconciliation and month-end accounting workflows

If you’re detail-oriented, highly organized, and comfortable handling high transaction volumes in fast-paced environments, this role could be a strong fit.

What You’ll Own

Accounts Payable (AP)

  • Process 20–50 vendor invoices weekly
  • Enter invoices into:
    • QuickBooks
    • NetSuite
    • Xero
    • SAP
  • Schedule payments via ACH, wire transfers, and checks
  • Reconcile vendor statements and resolve discrepancies
  • Manage employee reimbursements and credit card reconciliations

Accounts Receivable (AR)

  • Generate and send 30–100 customer invoices weekly
  • Post incoming payments:
    • ACH
    • Wire
    • Credit card
    • Checks
  • Maintain AR aging reports and track overdue balances
  • Follow up on collections and payment timelines
  • Manage deferred and unearned revenue adjustments

Reconciliation & Reporting

  • Reconcile AR/AP subledgers with the general ledger
  • Match transactions with bank records
  • Prepare weekly financial reports including:
    • Cash collections
    • Disbursements
    • Outstanding balances

Compliance & Controls

  • Maintain vendor and customer documentation including W-9s and contracts
  • Ensure compliance with:
    • GAAP
    • IFRS
  • Maintain audit-ready financial records and documentation

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work with procurement teams on vendor setup
  • 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

Requirements (Must-Have)

  • 2+ years of experience in:
    • Accounts Receivable
    • Accounts Payable
    • Bookkeeping
    • Accounting support
  • Experience with at least one:
    • QuickBooks
    • NetSuite
    • SAP
    • Xero
  • Intermediate Excel or Google Sheets skills:
    • VLOOKUP
    • Pivot Tables
  • Familiarity with:
    • Invoicing workflows
    • Payment processing
    • Reconciliations
    • AR/AP operations

Nice to Have

  • Multi-currency AR/AP experience
  • Experience with:
    • Bill.com
    • Tipalti
  • Background in:
    • SaaS
    • Real estate
    • Professional services
  • ERP migration or accounting automation experience

What a Typical Day Looks Like

  • Process vendor invoices and customer payments
  • Send invoices and follow up on overdue balances
  • Reconcile transactions and resolve discrepancies
  • Coordinate with internal teams on billing and vendor issues
  • Update reports and maintain accurate financial records

In short: you ensure every dollar moving in and out of the business is tracked, accurate, and processed on time.

Key Metrics (KPIs)

  • Invoice accuracy with less than 1% error rate
  • On-time AP payments (Net 30/45/60)
  • AR collections within target DSO
  • Timely reconciliations for month-end close
  • 100% audit-ready documentation

Why This Role Stands Out

  • High ownership over financial operations
  • Structured workflows and clear processes
  • Opportunity to grow into:
    • Senior Accounting
    • Finance Operations
  • Exposure to modern accounting systems and ERP tools

Interview Process

  1. Initial Phone Screen
  2. Recruiter Interview
  3. Practical Task (Reconciliation / AR Aging Scenario)
  4. Client Interview
  5. Offer & Background Verification
