The Role
T1 Energy is looking to hire an Accounts Payable Specialist to join our Finance and Accounting team. This is a high-ownership role for an AP professional who brings more than just transactional experience; you're someone who understands controls, thrives in complex, high-volume environments, and takes pride in building processes that are clean, documented, and audit ready.
You'll be a go-to resource for complex AP issues, month-end close support, and cross-functional problem solving, working closely with Procurement, Purchasing, and Shared Services to keep our payables operation running with precision. If you've spent time in a SOX-controlled or public company environment and you're ready to bring that rigor to a fast-growing manufacturer, this role was built for you.

AP Operations
- Process PO and non-PO invoices with accurate coding, approvals, and supporting documentation.
- Perform three-way match and resolve PO, receiving, pricing, and invoice discrepancies in partnership with Procurement and Purchasing.
- Monitor outstanding invoices and exceptions and proactively drive issues through resolution.
- Respond to vendor inquiries, reconcile statements, and resolve payment and invoice issues in a timely and professional manner.
Payments & Vendor Management
- Prepare payment proposals and support ACH, wire, and check payment runs in accordance with established controls.
- Support vendor onboarding, including W-9/W-8 collection, tax documentation, and validation of required information.
- Process vendor master changes with appropriate approvals, documentation, and audit trails.
- Support validation of vendor banking information and resolution of payment exceptions.
Controls & Month-End Close
- Execute AP processes in accordance with company policies, SOX controls, and approval requirements.
