AP Specialist

Zeus Jones is looking for a full time, Minneapolis/St Paul-based AP Specialist with 3+ years experience.

We are a fifty-person brand, innovation, and design company with a hybrid workplace that is collaborative, fast-paced and demanding. If you love being part of a team, have high standards for your work, and enjoy broad collaboration alongside the ability to focus on accounting responsibilities, we’d love to hear from you.

Ideally, you will have at least 3+ years of full-time accounting experience in addition to a minimum two-year degree in accounting. You will also need exposure to QuickBooks or equivalent accounting software and working knowledge of Microsoft Office and Mac software so you can jump right in.

We are a creative workplace that values diversity and inclusion. We encourage applicants from any personal or professional background. If you find fulfillment by growing your mind and experience, this could be the environment for you.

• Thorough. You will need exceptional attention to detail.
• Responsible. You can prioritize without letting things slip through the cracks. You uphold professional accounting ethics standards.
• Optimistic. We enjoy our work and are motivated to find the best way to do our jobs.

• Minimum of 3 years working in accounting
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Strong financial management skills
