Our team provides qualified Accounting and Finance professionals on a temporary and permanent basis across a broad range of industries. GHJ’s relationship with our Global Advisory and Accounting Network provides the resources needed to better understand client’s needs, attract a higher caliber of candidates and assess candidate potential.

A well-established manufacturing company in Long Beach is looking for an experienced Accounts Payable Specialist to join their team on a short-term contract basis. This is a great fit for an accounting professional who's comfortable jumping into a high-volume, fast-moving AP function and hitting the ground running.

### What You'll Do

- Process operating and manufacturing invoices within the company's ERP system

- Handle full-cycle AP, including invoice review, coding, and payment processing

- Prepare and run weekly payment cycles (ACH, wire transfers, and checks)

- Reconcile vendor statements and resolve any discrepancies

- Monitor A/P aging reports to catch and resolve outstanding or missed payments

- Maintain accurate, up-to-date vendor records

- Partner with internal teams and vendors to keep invoice processing and payment issues moving

### What You Bring

- 3–5 years of full-cycle Accounts Payable experience

- Hands-on ERP system experience required (QuickBooks-only experience won't meet the need for this role)

- A sharp eye for detail and accuracy

- Comfort adapting and reprioritizing in a fast-paced setting

- Advanced Excel skills, including Pivot Tables and VLOOKUPs
