Construction AP POST NUMBER: 459125

Santa Ana, CA

Accounts Payable Specialist – Construction Industry (Temp to Hire | Santa Ana, CA)

We’re partnering with a well-established construction company that’s been in business for decades, handling large-scale commercial projects including retail centers, entertainment venues, casinos, and hotels. They’re looking for an experienced Accounts Payable Specialist with a solid background in construction accounting to join their Santa Ana team.

This is a temp-to-hire opportunity for someone who thrives in a busy, team-oriented environment and can jump right in without much hand-holding.

What You’ll Do:

  • Process high-volume accounts payable invoices accurately and efficiently

  • Handle AIA billing, change orders, and subcontractor change orders

  • Manage preliminary notices and lien releases

  • Verify contractor licenses, insurance, and contract compliance

  • Ensure accuracy in sales tax application and reporting

  • Utilize Sage 300, Timberline, or Timberscan software for invoice routing, approvals, and data entry

  • Collaborate closely with the contract administration team and other departments

What We’re Looking For:

  • 3–5 years of construction accounting or AP experience (required)

  • Proficiency with Sage 300/Timberline/Timberscan or similar construction software

  • Understanding of AIA billing, lien releases, and contract compliance

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to handle a fast-paced workload

  • Comfortable in a family-owned, high-volume environment

  • Team-oriented and dependable (but not a “strong personality” that clashes with others)

  • Experience working in a smaller company where you’ve worn multiple hats is a plus

Determining compensation for this role (and others) at Vaco/Highspring depends upon a wide array of factors including but not limited to the individual’s skill sets, experience and training, licensure and certifications, office location and other geographic considerations, as well as other business and organizational needs. With that said, as required by local law in geographies that require salary range disclosure, Vaco/Highspring notes the salary range for the role is noted in this job posting. The individual may also be eligible for discretionary bonuses, and can participate in medical, dental, and vision benefits as well as the company’s 401(k) retirement plan.
