• Managing AP and AR teams (6 direct reports: 1 AR, 5 AP)
• Overseeing high‑value, low‑volume AR transactions and seasonal, high‑volume AP cycles
• Driving process improvements and strengthening controls within AP
• Handling multi‑currency transactions across UK, US, and Germany
• Maintaining supplier and customer relationships and supporting audits
• Using NetSuite to ensure accurate postings and reporting

The Individual:

• Proven experience in AP/AR management with team leadership
• Strong understanding of invoice workflows, reconciliations, and payment cycles
• Skilled in process improvement and stakeholder engagement
