Maintain up-to-date vendor files and serve as a point of contact for supplier inquiries in both English and Spanish.

Prepare recurring payment batches, including checks and electronic disbursements, while confirming proper authorization and supporting documentation.

Reconcile accounts payable records to the general ledger and assist with month-end accounting activities as needed.

Track outstanding payables, review aging activity, and help ensure financial obligations are settled within agreed terms.

Support year-end reporting requirements, including 1099 preparation, and provide documentation for audit and compliance needs.

Work closely with purchasing, operations, and accounting personnel to improve coordination and strengthen payables processes.

Requirements - At least 3 years of hands-on accounts payable experience, including ownership of the full invoice-to-payment process.

Fluency in both Spanish and English, with the ability to communicate clearly in writing and conversation.

Prior experience in the agriculture industry is strongly preferred.

Proficiency with accounting or ERP platforms such as Sage, NetSuite, or comparable systems.

Advanced Microsoft Excel capabilities, including tools used for lookup functions, reporting, and data review.

Solid understanding of reconciliations, payables procedures, and core accounting principles.
