Duties

The Financial Administration Assistant manages the day-to-day accounts payable operations for our office. This includes reviewing invoices and vouchers for accuracy before preparing them for payment, working with legal teams to ensure invoices are fair, correct, and meet quality and performance standards, and assisting in maintaining the district's purchase card, centrally billed travel, and individually billed travel card systems. This position serves as the district's accounts payable point of contact, facilitating communication between administration and local attorneys, staff, experts, and vendors.

Beyond day-to-day accounts payable duties, the Financial Administration Assistant keeps financial records organized and up to date, confirms that monthly funding requests are completed, and assists with required monthly reporting. The role also involves helping update financial, internal control, and travel policies annually; supporting the annual financial reviews and audits; training new employees on accounts payable processes and credit card use; ensuring compliance with payment and procurement regulations; and reviewing the office's financial systems to recommend and help implement improvements. The Financial Administration Assistant provides support when the district plans and executes large procurements and other projects, partners with the Operations Management Assistant on tracking accountable property, and serves as backup for the Financial Administrator, which requires maintaining an active contracting officer certification and staying current on request, travel, and funding processes.
