Accounts Payable Analyst

PURPOSE

The Accounts Payable Analyst owns how ProfitSolv's accounts payable platform performs and what its data tells us. This role is accountable for the configuration, automation, and analytics of the AP function: raising touchless processing, governing vendor and coding data, and turning spend data into decisions. This is a platform and analysis role, not an invoice processing role.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES:

• Own configuration of the AP automation platform (Airbase), including approval workflows, routing and coding rules, and integration mapping to Sage Intacct.
• Measure and improve the straight-through (touchless) processing rate, identifying what drives manual intervention and eliminating it.
• Monitor OCR and AI-assisted coding accuracy, maintain the coding taxonomy, and design exception handling that defines review routes, criteria, and timing.
• Own vendor master data governance, including setup standards, duplicate prevention, and W-9/1099 data integrity.
• Build and maintain spend analytics, including vendor spend by category and business unit, trend, and concentration.
• Analyze payment terms and early-payment discount capture to quantify working capital opportunities, and run duplicate payment and leakage detection to drive recovery.
• Own and report AP metrics monthly with commentary, including DPO, invoice cycle time, touchless rate, exception rate, and accrual accuracy.
• Support the accrual process through analysis, including unbilled spend identification and contract-driven accrual modeling.
• Partner with Accounting on AP subledger reconciliation and close analytics, and support Sage Intacct dimension strategy as it applies to AP coding.
  • Other duties as assigned.

This position follows established policies and procedures to keep confidential information secure.

QUALIFICATIONS:

• Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Analytics, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years in accounts payable, procurement, or finance operations with demonstrated process improvement or analytics ownership.
• Hands-on configuration or administration experience in an AP automation platform (Airbase, Bill.com, Coupa, Tipalti, or comparable).
• Advanced Excel skills.
• Demonstrated experience building recurring reporting or metrics from transactional data.

Additional Desirable Qualifications 

• Experience applying AI tools to AP work.
• Sage Intacct experience.
• Experience in a private equity-backed, multi-entity environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong time management skills.
• Strong initiative and sound decision-making ability.
• Ability to sit for prolonged periods at a desk and work on a computer.
• Must be able to lift up to 15 pounds at times.
• Ability to travel as needed.
• Ability to handle stress.
• Ability to meet work deadlines.
• Ability to be present at work as the job requires.
