Position Summary

Delta360 is seeking a detail-oriented and highly organized professional to join our team as an Accounts Payable Specialist. This position owns the full-cycle accounts payable process with a primary emphasis on bill of lading (BOL) accounting: matching BOLs to carrier and supplier invoices, reconciling fuel and product volumes, and resolving quantity, freight, and pricing discrepancies before payment.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing organization and contribute to a fast-paced, team-oriented environment supporting operational excellence and continued company growth.

Bill of Lading (BOL) Accounting

  • Match bills of lading to purchase orders and supplier or carrier invoices, performing three-way matching (PO, BOL, invoice) prior to payment.
  • Reconcile billed product volumes against BOL quantities, including gross versus net (temperature-corrected) gallons, and research and resolve loss/gain variances.
  • Review and validate freight, fuel tax, terminal and rack pricing, and other line-item charges on fuel and product invoices for accuracy.
  • Identify, document, and resolve quantity, pricing, and split-load discrepancies with carriers, suppliers, and internal operations.
  • Maintain organized BOL records and supporting documentation to support audits, cost allocation, and month-end close.

Core Accounts Payable

  • Process, code, and enter high volumes of vendor invoices accurately and to correct general ledger accounts and cost centers.
  • Prepare and execute payment runs (check, ACH, and wire) within approved terms and internal controls.
  • Perform vendor statement reconciliations and research and resolve outstanding or disputed items.
  • Support month-end AP close, including accruals, open-payables reporting, and account reconciliations.
  • Maintain vendor master data and assist with annual 1099 preparation and reporting.
  • Respond to vendor and internal inquiries professionally and resolve payment issues in a timely manner.
  • Perform special projects and other duties as assigned.

Requirements

  • 3 years of full-cycle accounts payable experience preferred.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; associate or bachelor degree in accounting or a related field preferred but not required.
  • Direct experience with invoice-to-document matching, including three-way matching.
  • Experience with an ERP or accounting system for AP processing.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including lookups and pivot tables, for reconciliation work.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
  • High attention to detail and professionalism.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in fuel, petroleum, energy, or other commodity distribution where product is billed by volume (gallons, barrels, or tons).
  • Direct experience reconciling bills of lading against carrier or supplier invoices.
  • Familiarity with fuel excise tax, freight, and terminal or rack pricing components.
  • Experience with the company accounting or ERP system.
