A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN ACCOUNTS PAYABLE CLERK

You would also research AP issues for vendors, plant locations and other Darling team members via phone, emails and scanning. You need to have a good head for accuracy and be detail-oriented. Other projects in support of the department may be assigned as needed.

To thrive in this position, you'll need to be comfortable with technology and have a good command of Microsoft Outlook and Excel. We also use Oracle E-Business Suite to connect us to our customer base, use Microsoft Teams to communicate internally and externally, and a handful of other tools to keep us all connected and efficient.
