A well-established business is looking for an experienced AP Manager to lead a remediation and stabilisation program following a recent ERP transformation.

This one's for someone who's dealt with a messy Accounts Payable function before and knows exactly how to fix it. Think invoice backlogs, exception queues, supplier query pile-ups, and a system that's technically live but not yet working the way it should.

What you'll be doing
Taking ownership of the AP function end to end and getting it back to a robust operating rhythm
Running root cause analysis across process, system, and behavioural issues
Building and executing a structured remediation plan
Improving invoice processing times, reducing exceptions and aged transactions
Lifting supplier payment performance and OCR or automation rates
Cleaning up supplier master data and putting proper governance around it
Documenting current and future state AP processes,



building SOPs and process maps as you go
Working closely with Finance, IT, and an outsourced offshore team to keep things moving
Reporting into senior finance leadership and keeping stakeholders across the business in the loop

What we're looking for:
Solid experience leading an AP function through a remediation or turnaround
Comfortable working across systems, process, and people, not just one of the three
Solid project management skills, with the ability to build a plan and actually execute it
Experience improving processes in an ERP setting, Workday experience is a big plus
A calm head under pressure, someone who can hold people accountable without burning bridges
Great communication skills, you'll be dealing with everyone from senior leadership to frontline AP staff
