Accounts Payable Specialist (Contract – Construction Subcontractor)

Location: Baltimore, MD | Long-Term Opportunity


Are you an Accounts Payable professional with construction industry experience, ready to support high-impact building projects across the Baltimore region?

Our client, a well-respected subcontractor in the commercial construction sector, is seeking a detail-driven Accounts Payable Specialist for a long-term contract role. This company plays a key role in major projects across healthcare, institutional, and mixed-use developments—and they need someone dependable and organized to help keep their financial operations running smoothly.


As recruiters specialized in construction & finance placements, we’re looking for someone with both the technical AP skills and the communication savvy to work inside a fast-paced, boots-on-the-ground contractor environment.


The Role: What You'll Be Doing

  • Review and enter a high volume of supplier & vendor invoices for accuracy and job cost coding
  • Facilitate approval workflows between project managers, supervisors, and accounting
  • Reconcile vendor statements and prepare weekly check/payment runs
  • Communicate with vendors and internal teams to resolve billing issues and adjust discrepancies
  • Support the monthly AP close process and assist with audit documentation when needed


 What Our Client Is Looking For

  • 2+ years of recent Accounts Payable experience, with a focus in subcontracting, construction, or trades
  • Familiarity with AP and job cost accounting tools (experience with Sage 300 CRE, Foundation, Vista/Viewpoint, or QuickBooks Contractor Edition is highly valued)
  • Solid understanding of lien waivers, COIs, purchase orders, and change orders (a big plus)
  • Strong attention to detail, time management, and ability to follow up in a deadline-driven environment
  • Professional communication skills – you'll collaborate with operations and field teams daily


 Why This Role?

  • Work with a respected subcontractor known for stability, craftsmanship, and collaborative project delivery
  • Join a close-knit finance team with strong leadership and clear processes
  • Great opportunity to break into or grow within Baltimore’s busy construction scene
  • Competitive hourly rate and potential for extension or permanent placement



Location: Baltimore, MD – On-site required (some flexibility for partial remote after training)

Start Date: ASAP

Duration: Contract, long-term (6–12 months minimum)
