Accounts Payable & Cash Specialist (Part-Time)

At Jungle Scout, we are on a mission to build the best Amazon competitive intelligence tools for Amazon sellers and brands.

About the Role

We're looking for a detail-oriented and dependable Accounts Payable & Cash Specialist to join our finance team on a part-time basis. This is a hands-on role at the core of our financial operations — responsible for keeping vendor relationships running smoothly, cash activity accurate, and our books clean.

You'll work closely with a collaborative accounting team and have real ownership over the day-to-day processes that keep our business moving. If you take pride in precision, thrive in a structured environment, and enjoy building systems that just work, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Own Accounts Payable

  • Review, code, and process vendor invoices accurately and on time
  • Code and sync expenses from Ramp to our GL system
  • Prepare and execute weekly payment runs (checks, ACH, wire transfers)
  • Maintain vendor records and resolve discrepancies or billing issues
  • Respond to vendor inquiries professionally and promptly

Manage Cash Activity

  • Record daily cash transactions and reconcile bank accounts
  • Monitor cash balances and support cash flow tracking
  • Prepare bank deposits and maintain thorough supporting documentation
  • Assist with month-end close activities related to cash and payables

Support the Broader Finance Team

  • Maintain accurate, well-organized financial records
  • Assist with audits by preparing and providing requested documentation
  • Contribute to process improvements and internal controls
  • Collaborate on ad hoc projects as the team's needs evolve

What Success Looks Like

  • Invoices processed accurately and payment runs executed without errors or delays
  • Bank accounts reconciled consistently and on schedule
  • Vendor relationships maintained with professionalism and responsiveness
  • Month-end close supported with clean, reliable documentation
  • Processes that are tighter and more efficient over time

Who You Are

  • 2+ years of experience in accounts payable, bookkeeping, or a similar finance role
  • Solid understanding of core accounting principles
  • Experienced with accounting software such as Sage Intacct, NetSuite, or similar
  • Comfortable in Microsoft Excel — data entry, basic formulas, and reconciliations
  • Exceptionally detail-oriented with strong organizational habits
  • Self-directed and reliable — you manage your time well and meet your deadlines
  • Bonus: experience with cash management or treasury functions, ERP systems, or a SaaS/technology environment

Note: The one constant in our evolving, dynamic environment is change. Needless to say, you’ll never get bored ;) The responsibilities listed above are our needs today but we are keeping future needs & opportunities in mind when hiring for this position. We value adaptability and a growth mindset in team members. Although it’s not promised, the successful candidate should be prepared for the possibility that their role may evolve over time as our business strategies and priorities change.

What you’ll get:

💥The BEST team. You’ll work alongside the smartest, most passionate, and kindest humans day in and day out making work fun.

💥 A growth culture! We have tons of opportunities for you to elevate your skills and take you to that next step; we are here to help you find the ones that matter most to you through exposure and training.

💥 Ability to make impact! Although it’s a highly collaborative culture, team members are empowered to work autonomously and take extreme ownership of their work. You'll have the opportunity to truly make a difference and impact our customers.

💥 Competitive compensation packages! We structure our compensation packages to reward our team members' contributions to our company's success - you’ll have a bonus tied to performance and will be invested into our long-term success with Equity. 

💥 Flexible Time Off. With our generous PTO and recognition of local holidays, escape to the beach, recharge mentally, or use your Volunteer Time Off (VTO) to give back through volunteering.

💥 Comprehensive Health Benefits & Retirement Program. We offer comprehensive healthcare and retirement matching plans for eligible employees.

💥 Paid Parental Leave Policy. Jungle Scout values the importance of family and offers a paid parental leave that provides the support and flexibility you need to embrace this special time in your life. We also offer a ramp-back period for a seamless transition for you and your family.
