Accounts Payable Coordinator

JOB SUMMARY
PACT (Pearson Accelerator Construction Team) is a General Partnership of Alberici, Amico, Kenaidan, and Obayashi, supported by design partners Egis, Mott MacDonald, and Weston Williamson + Partners. Together, we are delivering Accelerator, a major program of Pearson LIFT (Long-term Investment in Facilities and Terminals), Toronto Pearson's infrastructure development plan. This multi-year program is designed to address immediate passenger growth demands while preparing Canada’s largest airport for the future of air travel—including critical upgrades to airfield and infrastructure, greenhouse gas reduction initiatives, modernization of Terminals 1 and 3, and the creation of a world-class passenger experience.
The Accounts Payable Coordinator will join a fast-paced and evolving finance team supporting a large-scale infrastructure program. This role goes beyond traditional accounts payable processing and offers hands-on exposure to both existing financial workflows and the implementation of new systems.
The successful candidate will initially support a high-volume, manual accounts payable process while working closely with the current team to understand existing workflows. As systems evolve, this individual will play a key role in supporting the transition to Oracle, contributing to process improvements and system implementation. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to expand into broader accounting responsibilities over time.

DESIRED SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE, COMPETENCIES AND QUALIFICATIONS
2–5+ years of accounts payable experience, ideally within construction or project-based environments
Basic understanding of accounting principles with a strong interest in growing into an accounting role
Experience working in high-volume, fast-paced environments with evolving processes
Strong attention to detail and ability to manage manual review processes effectively
Experience with ERP systems (Oracle or ERP implementation exposure is an asset, not required)

Strong organizational and time management skills
Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and financial systems
Effective communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across teams
