Role
Who you are
- A successful Accountant brings a foundation in accounting or procurement, strong organizational and communication skills, a resourceful and proactive mindset, and a detail-oriented approach with the ability to balance both tactical work and the bigger picture
- You have foundational experience in accounting, procurement, or accounts payable, supported by relevant education or hands-on work. You’re eager to deepen your knowledge and build stronger technical skills. You’re proactive, curious, and ready to jump in, take ownership, and contribute to improving our procure-to-pay processes
- You are willing to take on any task. Zapier is a fast-growing and nimble team. You'll be part of an accounting team that has their hands in multiple aspects of the business. You're eager to take on any project that comes your way no matter how big or how small
- Your organizational and time management skills are top-notch. You'll be responsible for multiple projects and tasks at any given time and can keep these organized and prioritized to ensure work gets done and logged. You like to get things done
- You're resourceful. When you encounter a task you haven't done before, you know how to use AI tools and resources, your network, your teammate’s knowledge, and whatever other resources available to find a good path forward
- You have strong communication skills. You are comfortable communicating with all levels of the organization and respond quickly and accurately to questions directed to the accounting team. You have great written skills to help write and update documentation that is clear, concise, and consistent with Zapier’s tone
- You have an eye for detail. You love getting into the nitty-gritty, but also have the ability to take a step back and see the bigger picture
- We're looking for the best fit for each of our roles, regardless of the type of companies in your background, so we encourage you to apply even if your skills and experiences don’t exactly match the job description
What the job involves
- We’re looking for an experienced Accountant who will be responsible for supporting procure-to-pay operations, managing vendor data and onboarding, maintaining accurate accounting records, and contributing to process improvements across the P2P function
- In this role, you’ll support Renee Law, Accounting Manager in overseeing vendor lifecycle management, strengthening accounting processes and documentation, coordinating cross-functional communication, and ensuring timely, accurate completion of accounting related tasks
- Oversee our vendor master data records within our procure to pay and ERP system (Zip) which includes answering vendor questions, following up on vendors missing information, determining 1099/1042 eligibility, and resolving issues during the onboarding process
- Perform OFAC and TIN matching processes
- Review critical vendor fields for missing or incomplete/incorrect data (includes 1099 eligibility fields, tax IDs, and duplicate vendor indicators)
- Manage vendor offboarding in the procure to pay and ERP systems
- Provide necessary reporting on our vendors
- Review and code invoices in the accounts payable invoice inbox, accurately and promptly
- Assist with purchase request reviews and follow-ups as needed
- Help create and maintain process documentation including internal accounting documents and Zapier-facing documentation
- Respond to Slack messages regarding accounting-based questions in a timely manner
- Manage our virtual card transaction queue, ensuring transactions are submitted timely with required documentation and credit card receipts are securely filed
- Manage and distribute incoming mail from Zapier’s remote mailbox to others within the organization, leveraging existing automated mail processes for efficiency
- Organize and assign tickets from accounting’s Zendesk instance to the proper individuals for action
- Provide assistance on various procure to pay related projects as needed
- Perform month end reconciliation processes and automations
Application process
- After you apply, you are going to hear back from us—even if we don’t see an immediate fit with our team. In fact, throughout the process, we strive to never go more than seven days without letting you know the status of your application. We know we’ll make mistakes from time to time, so if you ever have questions about where you stand or about the process, just ask your recruiter!
- All we ask is that you answer a few in-depth questions in our application that would typically be asked at the start of an interview process
- This helps speed things up by letting us get to know you and your skillset a bit better right out of the gate. Please be sure to answer each question; the resume and CV fields are optional
- Education is not a requirement for our roles; however, if you receive an offer, you will need to include your most recent educational experience as part of our background check process
- The anticipated application window is 30 days from the date job is posted, unless the number of applicants requires it to close sooner or later, or if the position is filled
Our take
Even before remote working became the "in thing", freelancers, small business owners, and large organisations have found themselves needing more and more software platforms to serve their operational needs. As people used more software services, Zapier founders saw the need to connect the actions between these software and save everyone some time.
Zapier is the largest integration and automation tool for businesses. Since its founding, Zapier has grown its suite of automation offerings across almost every mainstream software service. The company is one of the most successful to come out of Y Combinator and has also been a pioneer of remote working.
Zapier has so far been able to capitalise heavily on its advantage as one of the first entrants and has had very little actual competition. Software services aren't going anywhere anytime soon, and organisations are only going to need more of them. This puts Zapier in a strong position for growth, but also opens up room for bolder companies to get in on the action. Companies like Airtable and Integromat are already preying on more niche segments of Zapier's market share.

Additional info
- As a fully remote company with 800+ team members across 40+ states, 38 countries, and 18+ timezones, we’ve adopted a culture of asynchronous work. This work style allows teams to collaborate effectively across locations, time zones, skills, and each individual’s energy levels, and empowers employees to work in a setting that fits their needs. In practice, we live on Slack, with most conversations in public channels. It mimics the open-office feel and allows everyone to search the chat logs if they need to find something that happened when they weren’t around
