Through trusted brands — SC Media, Security Weekly, ChannelE2E, MSSP Alert, Cybersecurity Collaboration Forum, and more — CRA delivers the insights, research, and connections that security professionals need to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving landscape. This is a team that moves fast, cares deeply about its work, and is building something meaningful in a sector that matters. THE ROLE We’re looking for a detail-driven Accounts Payable Specialist to join the Accounting team and keep the financial engine running smoothly. You’ll own the day-to-day processing of invoices and expenses — making sure vendors get paid accurately and on time, records stay clean, and month-end close goes without a hitch. This is a great fit for someone early in their finance career who takes pride in precision, communicates clearly, and wants to grow within a dynamic media business. WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Process vendor invoices and employee expense reports with accurate coding and proper approvals
• Run and support weekly payment cycles (ACH, wire, check, and card)
• Perform 2-way matching (invoice, PO, receipt) to keep AP controls tight
• Onboard new vendors: collect W-9s, set up payment details, maintain records
• Respond to vendor inquiries and resolve payment issues promptly
• Reconcile vendor statements and flag discrepancies
• Support month-end close: AP reconciliations, accruals, and audit-ready documentation
• Post AP transactions into the accounting system accurately
• Provide day-to-day support to the AP Manager on reporting and process improvements

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR Must-Have

• 2-3 years of AP, accounting, or finance experience
• Working knowledge of core accounting principles
• Proficiency in Excel (formulas, data organisation, reconciliations)
• Strong attention to detail — you catch errors before they become problems
• Clear communicator with vendors and internal stakeholders
• Able to follow processes, hit deadlines, and ask good questions

Nice-to-Have

• Experience with Sage Intacct and/or Ramp expense management
• Exposure to procurement or expense management workflows
• Background in a high-volume or fast-paced finance environment

HOW YOU’LL BE MEASURED

• Invoice and expense processing turnaround time
• Accuracy of coding and data entry (error rate)
• Vendor inquiry response time
• Completeness of AP tasks during month-end close
