In this role, you will report directly to our Director of Accounting & Tax and own the Accounts Payable function across a rapidly growing group of 15+ international entities.

You will design the workflows, build the integrations, and implement the internal controls—but you will also be the one directly processing the invoices, coding credit card transactions, and running the payments yourself.

Map out and standardize the procure-to-pay (P2P) workflow across central systems, specifically integrating NetSuite, Ramp, and Pleo. Draft and deploy a group-wide expense policy and approval matrix to ensure robust internal controls and clear segregation of duties. Your responsibilities Build & Design the AP Function: Take complete ownership of the AP lifecycle, transitioning responsibilities from GL accountants to build a centralized function from scratch. Hands-on AP Operations: Own the day-to-day execution of the AP ledger—manually processing and coding vendor bills, managing credit card transactions, and executing payment runs yourself. System Integration & Automation: Streamline workflows across NetSuite, Ramp, and Pleo. Identify automation opportunities using AI and native integrations to make manual data entry as efficient as possible. Implement
