Title: Accounts Payable Specialist

Location: Los Angeles, CA

Pay: $28 –$30 / hour

Benefits: This position is eligible for medical, dental, vision and 401k.


About the Role:

We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Accounts Payable Specialist to join our growing team. This role is focused on expense coding and requires strong critical thinking skills to properly classify and record non-PO invoices across multiple entities. The ideal candidate has experience in a large company environment, is comfortable working with complex general ledger structures, and can adapt to an evolving business with new entities and changing processes.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Review and process non-PO invoices, applying judgment to determine whether expenses should be coded as fixed assets (e.g., office equipment), prepaids (leases, subscriptions), or operating expenses (events, sponsorships, services).
  • Code invoices to the correct GL sub-accounts across multiple entities, cost centers, departments, and locations, using documentation as guidance while exercising critical thinking for exceptions.
  • Research, document, and resolve complex items such as intercompany chargebacks and expenses that don’t fit standard templates.
  • Maintain accurate vendor and expense records; take detailed notes on coding decisions and field definitions to support consistency and knowledge sharing.
  • Leverage OCR invoice technology to review prepopulated fields while ensuring manual accuracy and compliance.
  • Collaborate with team members to resolve open questions efficiently by compiling and addressing issues in batches with supervisors.
  • Support ongoing centralization of AP, including integration of international entities, currencies, and VAT considerations (training provided).
  • Assist in month-end close activities as needed, including reconciliations and reporting.

Qualifications:

  • 3+ years of accounts payable experience; large company or multi-entity experience strongly preferred.
  • Strong understanding of expense coding, accruals, prepaids, and fixed assets.
  • Experience working primarily with non-PO invoices (beyond standard 2/3-way match processes).
  • Ability to navigate complex GL structures and apply critical thinking to new or unique transactions.
  • Excellent organizational skills with a habit of documenting processes and decisions clearly.
  • Strong Excel skills (VLOOKUP, PivotTables) required; Oracle and international AP (VAT, FX) experience a plus, but not required.
  • Comfortable working in a dynamic environment with evolving processes.

What We Offer:

  • Contract role with the possibility of conversion to full-time based on performance and business needs.
  • Exposure to complex, global AP operations including international entities, currencies, and VAT.
  • Hands-on experience in a centralization initiative with opportunities to build best practices.
