About the Role

We are seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented Accounts Payable Specialist to join our team at Thorlabs. This is a great opportunity to work in a dynamic environment where you will be responsible for providing accounting and clerical support to Accounting Department personnel.

As an Accounts Payable Specialist, you will play a key role in ensuring the smooth operation of our accounts payable process. Your responsibilities will include reviewing invoices for accuracy, obtaining signatures on checks, maintaining accounts payable records, and acting as a liaison between corporate and branch accounts payable departments.

You will also be responsible for answering vendor inquiries, maintaining reports and spreadsheets, preparing cleared checks for storage, and assisting with monthly closings. Additionally, you will be expected to meet company standards regarding quantity and quality of work performed.

This is a sedentary role that requires the ability to lift files, open filing cabinets, and bend or stand as necessary. If you are a motivated individual with strong organizational skills and attention to detail, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

Key Responsibilities
  • Review all invoices for accuracy and completeness prior to payment
  • Obtain signatures on all accounts payable checks
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date accounts payable records
  • Act as liaison between corporate and branch accounts payable departments
  • Answer all vendor inquiries in a timely and professional manner
Requirements

To be successful in this role, you will need to have experience in a similar position, a high school diploma or equivalent, and proficiency in Microsoft products and Axapta. You must also be able to read and interpret documents such as procedure manuals, routine reports, and correspondence.

Familiarity with the Chart of Accounts is also a plus. As a detail-oriented individual with excellent organizational skills, you will be able to prioritize tasks effectively and manage multiple projects simultaneously.

Benefits

Thorlabs offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, company-paid life insurance, a generous PTO package, a 401(k) plan, and tuition reimbursement. We value our employees and offer opportunities for growth and development.

The estimated salary for this position is $55,000 - $65,000 per year, depending on experience. If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding career opportunity, we encourage you to apply.
