What I'm looking for
I am an Accounts Payable Specialist with over 20 years of comprehensive experience in the field. My expertise lies in vendor management, document coding, and classification, allowing me to ensure timely and accurate processing of invoices. I am proactive and self-motivated, with a strong ability to solve problems and adapt to various software programs.
Throughout my career, I have successfully implemented systems like UIPath to enhance efficiency in invoice processing. My role at US Silica involved heavy interaction with vendors and suppliers, where I resolved invoicing questions and managed AP accruals effectively. I take pride in my ability to maintain strong vendor relationships and ensure accuracy in financial transactions.
In addition to my accounts payable experience, I have a background in property management, where I handled rental contracts and tenant relations. My diverse skill set, including proficiency in various accounting software, positions me as a valuable asset in any financial team.
