Candidates must be enthusiastic about stepping outside of accounting role to assist the office in shared general administrative duties. While this is an AP position, someone with an administrative background who has incorporated AP duties would be a good fit due to the expectation of managing these admin duties. All in the plant office pitch in to complete regular administrative tasks (answering phones, assisting plant management, etc), so a servant mentality would be a good fit. This is not a good fit for an accounting candidate who is looking to grow into a senior role. A good attitude is critical. An aggressive or assertive personality will not be a fit in this role. Flexibility is key.
