• Maintain utility and contract service logs and ensure they are updated accurately and on time.
• Respond to vendor inquiries regarding invoice receipt, approval status, and payment.

• Maintain accurate and organized accounts payable records across multiple entities.
• Promptly report discrepancies, including errors identified in your own work or issues originating with vendors or other teams.
• Ensure invoices are processed accurately and within established deadlines.
  
  

Requirements
