Accounts Payable Specialist

The Opportunity Are you a Coupa power-user with a sharp eye for the "why" behind the data? We are seeking a high-caliber accounting professional for a specialized, 20-hour-per-week role.

This isn't just a data-entry position. We need a technical specialist who understands the intricate DNA of the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) process. You will serve as the primary point of contact for assigned business accounts, ensuring seamless flow between requisitions, purchase orders, and final payments while maintaining gold-standard accuracy.

Key Technical Responsibilities As our resident Coupa Expert, you will dive deep into the system to manage complex workflows:

• GR/IR Variance Management: Run GR-IR variance reports, identify root causes of discrepancies, and implement solutions.

• PO Lifecycle Management: Create, view, and analyze Purchase Order history; determine PO status (open/closed); and identify buyers for swift resolution of issues.

• Advanced Line-Item Analysis: View and explain various configurations including:
  • Control Setups: GR/IR, GR-Based-IV, IR-Only, and GR-Non Val (split cost centers).
    
    
  • Pricing/Quantity: 1-to-1 ratios and price per UOM.
    
    
  • Scheduling Agreements: Access and interpret complex conditions.

• Reporting & Troubleshooting: Run targeted reports to capture blocked or "unpostable" invoices and navigate back to original requisitions to resolve bottlenecks.

Qualifications & Skills

• Education: College degree in Accounting, Finance, or equivalent professional experience.

• Systems Expertise: High proficiency in Coupa is required. You must understand the flow of invoices and how data translates from a requisition to a financial report.

• Analytical Mindset: Ability to perform root-cause analysis on financial variances rather than just identifying the error.

• Communication: Exceptional customer service skills with the ability to explain complex accounting setups to non-financial stakeholders.

• Certifications (Preferred): CAPA (Certified Accounts Payable Associate) or CAPP (Certified Accounts Payable Professional) is a plus.

Why Join Us? This role is perfect for a seasoned professional looking for high-level work with a flexible, part-time commitment. We value technical expertise and offer a collaborative environment where your insights directly impact our operational efficiency.
