Be the steady hand that keeps invoices flowing. You'll own the AP inbox, log transactions accurately into the TMS, and surface discrepancies before they become problems — so payments go out on time and the books stay clean.
ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll be the first set of eyes on every invoice — monitoring the AP inbox, entering data into the Transportation Management System (TMS), and flagging anything that doesn't add up. You'll keep records organized, maintain Notice of Assignment and Letter of Release documents in the system, and partner with the finance team to resolve issues quickly.
You'll learn the Ascend platform (training provided) and grow into a trusted contributor on the AP workflow. This is the role where careful, consistent work matters more than years of experience — if you take pride in getting the small things right, you'll thrive here.
The Ideal Candidate
You catch the typo, the missing PO, the duplicate invoice — and flag it before it ships
You stay on top of an inbox without letting anything slip
You write clear, short emails that get a clean answer back
You learn new systems quickly and aren't afraid to ask questions
You take ownership of your queue, not just your tasks
