Vendor Management Auditor

This means auditing the weekly invoices for the possibilities of incorrect charges for things such as: work not performed, improper charges for work types, time and material charges beyond what was used, among others. These audit findings need to be referred to, and managed effectively with our vendor partners for dispute resolution and expected invoice amount reductions. Additionally this position is responsible for accurately reflecting all invoice details in a system of record, along with processing invoices for timely payment by A/P.
