The Opportunity The Rothenbury

Group is seeking a Senior Accounts Payable Specialist to support accounts payable operations across a diverse portfolio of Canadian businesses. This position will be responsible for maintaining accurate vendor records, reviewing and processing invoices, preparing payment batches, resolving account discrepancies, and supporting month-end accounting across multiple companies and legal entities. The person hired must be able to manage a complex workload without relying on constant direction.

You will need to determine whether invoices are properly supported, identify unusual or duplicate charges, follow established approval controls, and ensure payment information is complete and accurate before it is submitted for authorization. This is a senior individual-contributor position. It is not intended for someone whose experience is primarily limited to invoice entry or basic bookkeeping assistance.

Previous Experience Supporting Canadian Companies Is Required.

Recruitment Process

Each application is reviewed against the education, experience, technical knowledge, and communication requirements of the position. Candidates selected for the initial screening stage will receive an email within one to two business days of applying with a link to complete a pre-recorded video interview. The interview will evaluate your Canadian-company experience, full-cycle accounts payable knowledge, HST understanding, payment-run experience, reconciliation ability, accounting-system proficiency, judgment, and ability to work independently.

Candidates who meet the required standard may be invited to continue to a live interview.

Process employee expenses, credit-card activity, recurring charges, and other operating expenditures

Apply the appropriate GST and HST treatment to invoices and expenses

Support bank, credit-card, and accounts payable reconciliations

Assist with month-end activities, including accruals, prepaid expenses, cut-off procedures, aging reviews, and AP reporting

Maintain complete and organized electronic records for management, accounting, and audit review

Support accounts payable activity across multiple businesses, legal entities, departments, and vendor portfolios

Coordinate with finance, operations, leadership, and other internal teams to obtain missing information and resolve issues

Identify recurring errors, inefficient workflows, or weaknesses in existing controls

Recommend improvements that strengthen accuracy, documentation, efficiency, and fraud prevention

Follow company approval limits, segregation-of-duties requirements, and vendor-verification procedures Education and Professional Requirements Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration with an accounting concentration, or a closely related field

Who Will

Succeed in This Position You are organized, analytical, and comfortable taking responsibility for financial records that affect several businesses. You do not process invoices without reviewing the underlying details. When documentation is incomplete, coding is unclear, or a vendor balance does not agree, you investigate the issue and follow it through to resolution.

You can manage competing priorities while maintaining accuracy, documentation, and control. You also understand that accounts payable involves the protection of company funds. You are comfortable questioning unusual activity, following approval requirements, and escalating matters that fall outside your authority.

Performance Expectations The Successful Candidate Will Be Expected To Process invoices accurately and within required timelines

Maintain complete and current vendor records

Ensure expenses are assigned to the correct entity, account, department, and tax code

Keep vendor accounts reconciled

Prepare accurate, complete, and properly supported payment batches

Identify duplicate, incorrect, unsupported, or unauthorized invoices before payment

Resolve vendor discrepancies and missing information promptly

Maintain accurate accounts payable records for month-end close

Provide management with reliable visibility into upcoming payment obligations

Maintain complete documentation that is easy to review

Follow all approval, security, and fraud-prevention controls

Improve recurring AP issues rather than allowing them to continue Compensation The annual compensation range for this position is: C$27,600–C$32,400 Final compensation will be determined based on the candidate’s depth of accounts payable experience, previous work with Canadian companies, multi-entity experience, Canadian tax knowledge, accounting-system proficiency, communication skills, and ability to independently manage a complex accounts payable workload.
