Step in to support invoice processing and help hit key deadlines when needed.
Oversee day-to-day Accounts Payable operations, including:
Invoice verification, matching, and processing
Managing supplier payments (BACS, cheques, etc.)
Handling supplier queries and resolving discrepancies
Vendor account management and reconciliations
Month-end and year-end reporting and support
Ensure compliance with internal controls and financial procedures.
Be the escalation point for complex or sensitive AP issues.

What we're looking for:
Essential:
Solid experience in a supervisory AP role within a high-volume environment
End-to-end knowledge of AP processes
Calm under pressure and able to manage challenging conversations with confidence
Proven ability to coach and develop team members
Background working within a larger business structure
Self-driven, proactive, and forward-thinking mindset
Desirable:
Experience supporting the transition to automated AP systems
Strong systems knowledge and advanced Excel skills

Key skills & attributes:
Natural leader with strong interpersonal skills
Strong problem-solving ability
Excellent time management and organisational skills
Clear communicator, able to motivate and manage people effectively

What's in it for you?
Competitive salary and hybrid working (split between home and office)
Generous pension scheme and access to Employee Assistance Programme
Continuous learning via internal training and development platforms
Access to salary sacrifice benefits - including additional holidays, cycle-to-work scheme, and more
Death-in-service cover
Access to exclusive retail and lifestyle discounts
Early Friday finish every second week - because work/life balance matters

Working Hours & Flexibility
Monday to Friday, 08:30-17:00
Hybrid working (a blend of office and home-based work)
