Scan your resume against ATS criteria for this Accounts Payable Specialist role at Remote Raven.
Our client is a long-established community association management company in the US Mountain time zone (Arizona), managing homeowner associations on behalf of their volunteer boards. They have been doing it for three decades, and they still manage the very first communities they signed. That is the kind of place this seat sits in.
Here is what makes this different from ordinary accounts payable. You are not keeping company’s books. Each association is its own legal entity, with its own bank account, its own budget, its own board, and its own money belonging to its own homeowners. A landscaping contractor who services twelve communities sends invoice, and it becomes twelve payables paid from twelve accounts. Paying the right vendor the right amount is half the job. Paying it out of the right community’s funds is the other half, and it is the half that matters most.
Your work feeds the monthly financial statements each board reads, so what leaves your desk has to be right and has to be on time. You will also deal directly with volunteer board treasurers, who approve the invoices for their community and who do not work for anyone here. A large part of this role is getting approvals moving from people who are giving their evenings to their neighbourhood, and helping them use the portal without making them feel foolish.
This is a full-time, long-term seat for someone who takes real satisfaction in a clean payables queue, a reconciliation that ties, and a vendor who never has to chase.
Invoice Processing and Data Entry
Post business transactions, process invoices, and verify financial data used to maintain accounts payable records.
Assemble and review invoices to be completed for payment.
Input daily bookkeeping and record keeping at volume, without letting accuracy slip.
Check vendor files for any previous payments and assign voucher numbers.
Provide the clerical support needed to pay the obligations of each association.

Protect each association against unintentional overpayment.
Investigate any questionable invoice items, prices, or signatures.
Obtain proper information and approval before invoice payments are released.

Keep track of all payments and expenditures, including purchase orders, invoices, and statements.
Maintain copies of invoices and correspondence necessary for the files.
Records, Reconciliation and Reporting
Reconcile processed work by verifying entries and comparing system reports to balances, including accounts payable reports.
Ensure the accuracy of each association’s financial documents for payment, auditing, and tax purposes.
Prepare analyses of accounts and produce monthly reports.
Provide periodic reports and other records as required.
Maintain historical records so any payment can be traced end to end.
Board and Team Communication
Build a working relationship with the board contact for each community assigned to you, most often the treasurer, so questions and concerns can be raised by phone or email.
Train board members on how to approve invoices on the portal.
Communicate daily with colleagues and vendors.
Be a genuine team player in the accounting department, willing to cross-train and to cover while teammates are out sick or on vacation.
Contribute to continuing improvement of the payment process.
Take on other projects as assigned by your supervisor.
