This position is critical to the University’s Accounts Payable operations and supports the timely, accurate, and compliant processing of vendor invoices, employee reimbursements, supplier onboarding activities, and other disbursement functions. The role serves as a key resource for ensuring compliance with University, UNC System, State, and Federal policies while supporting campus departments in navigating increasingly automated financial processes.
As Accounts Payable operations have evolved through the implementation of PaymentWorks, Chrome River, Jaggaer, electronic workflows, and supplier self-service tools, the responsibilities of this position have expanded beyond transactional processing to include policy interpretation, campus training, audit support, vendor management, issue resolution, and process improvement. The position plays an important role in maintaining internal controls, mitigating compliance risks, and supporting the University’s financial stewardship responsibilities.
