Gray Capital LLC

Gray Residential is a multifamily owner-operator with a growing portfolio of communities across the Midwest. We manage our properties directly, which means our accounting function sits close to operations - the people on this team aren't running reports from a distance, they are working alongside the property manager and regional teams whose financials they own.

We’re seeking a motivated and diligent Accounts Payable Specialist to join our team of account professionals. As an Accounts Payable Specialist, you're responsible and accountable for the accurate recording and timely payment of valid invoices while supporting multiple properties in a paperless system. You'll help keep our operations running smoothly by managing invoice workflows, supporting weekly check runs, maintaining vendor records, and communicating effectively with internal teams and external partners.

This role offers more than one path forward at Gray Residential. You will directly report to the Controller. Beyond core AP duties, you'll gain hands-on exposure to journal entries, bank reconciliations, and basic bookkeeping under the guidance of the Controller — the same skills that anchor our Property Accountant role — and team members who want to broaden their scope will have the opportunity to grow into a Property Accountant position, taking on full month-end close, financial statement preparation, and portfolio-level ownership. For those who want to go deeper into accounts payable instead, there is also room to grow into AP leadership, such as a Senior AP Specialist or AP Manager role, as our team and portfolio continue to expand.
