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 strong 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
• Strong project management skills, with the ability to build a plan and actually execute it
• Experience improving processes in an ERP environment, 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
