Process employee expense reimbursements accurately and efficiently.
Set up new vendors in QuickBooks, including verifying direct deposit information by phone.
Process vendor payments through Telpay and cheque payments.
Reconcile vendor statements, investigate discrepancies, and respond to vendor payment inquiries.
Match vendor invoices against purchase orders and coordinate with project managers for review and approval.
Follow up on outstanding invoice approvals to ensure payments are processed on schedule.
Maintain accurate accounting records and supporting documentation.
Assist the accounting team with other administrative and accounting-related tasks as required.
