Our portfolio includes category leaders ranked at the top of Amazon, carried in major retailers nationwide, and sold across DTC, marketplaces, and every channel in between.\nWe’re not a startup hoping something works. We’re a team that has done it repeatedly - taken products from idea to category leader, landed them on retail shelves nationwide, and built real brands that consumers love. We operate like a holding company with the speed of a startup: small team, no bureaucracy, massive ownership.\nThis is the place where you’ll see the entire machine - sourcing, product development, packaging, manufacturing, compliance, marketing, marketplace strategy, retail - all under one roof. If you want to learn how consumer products actually get built and shipped at scale, there is no faster education than this.\nThe Role\nWe are hiring an Accounts Payable Lead to own AP across our entire portfolio. You will run the full invoice-to-pay cycle, keep vendor accounts reconciled, and make sure AP closes cleanly every month.\nYou will report to our Finance leadership and work closely with our AR team, our outside accounting partner, and the operations teams who buy from co-manufacturers, 3PLs, freight carriers and agencies. This is a hands-on role for someone who likes clean ledgers and better processes.\nThis role is on-site at our Santa Ana, CA office, with the opportunity for hybrid after onboarding and flexible working hours.\nWhat You'll Do\nInvoice-to-pay: Intake, coding, matching, approvals and weekly payment runs across all entities.\nVendor accounts: Statements, reconciliations, disputes, and vendor-master setup and changes.\nMonth-end close: AP accruals, aging review and sub-ledger to GL tie-out.\nControls: Duplicate checks, bank-change verification, segregation of duties and 1099 readiness.\nCash visibility: A weekly view of upcoming payments for finance leadership.\nProcess improvement: Automate and simplify AP as volume grows with retail expansion.\nRequirements\n3+ years of hands-on, full-cycle accounts payable, owning the end-to-end process\nExperience across multiple entities\nHands-on experience with QuickBooks and Ramp (both required)\nMonth-end close experience, including accruals and reconciliations\nExperience with 1099s and vendor onboarding\nExperience mentoring or leading teammates\nExperience working with remote teammates\nStrong communication and organization skills\nStrong Excel skills (lookups, pivot tables)\nA habit of documenting processes and catching errors before they go out\nAble to work on-site at our Santa Ana, CA office\nNice to Have\nExperience with Campfire\nCPG, manufacturing, retail or eCommerce vendor base (co-manufacturers, 3PLs, freight)\nExperience working with an outsourced accounting firm\nBachelor's or associate degree in accounting\nThis Role Is Not For You If\nYou want a purely data-entry role, prefer a single-entity company with slow volume, or want to move straight into managing a team. This seat is hands-on and owns outcomes.\nCompensation\nBase salary: $70,000 - $85,000 depending on experience\n5% annual performance bonus\nBenefits\nMedical, dental, and vision\n401(k) Plan\nCompany-paid life insurance, AD&D, and long-term disability\nPTO and 14 Observed Holidays\nAmazing, dog-friendly office in Santa Ana, CA\nLearning & development opportunities\nWhy eJam\nWe build and scale category-leading eCommerce brands\nWe operate with speed, ownership, and accountability\nIdeas move quickly from concept to execution\nEvery team member has direct impact on company growth\nWe value operators who think strategically and execute decisively\nEqual Employment Opportunity\neJam is an equal opportunity employer.
