• PO Matching & Invoice Workflow: Drive robust purchase order (PO) 2-way/3-way matching workflows, invoice intake, vendor onboarding frameworks, and operational controls to ensure accurate, timely transactional accounting at scale.
• Disbursements & Cash Management: Oversee global disbursement cycles, payment operations, and banking administration in close collaboration with Treasury to optimize working capital efficiency and liquidity management.

2. International Accounts Payable Operations

• Global AP Structure: Lead the strategic modernization, centralization, and operational scale of international Accounts Payable benches, building a high-performing, unified global AP service delivery model.
• Statutory & Tax Compliance: Ensure global AP operations strictly adhere to local statutory reporting, multi-currency processing, cross-border payment rules, and regional transaction taxes (VAT/GST/Sales Tax).
• Vendor & Stakeholder Experience: Maintain high vendor management standards, optimizing payment inquiry resolution and strengthening cross-border operational relationships with internal and external partners.

3. Process Excellence, Systems & Automation Roadmap

• P2P Systems Integration: Act as the primary Accounting change agent for P2P technology, driving the optimization and alignment of enterprise AP and P2P tooling (e.g., NetSuite, Coupa, Zip).
• KPIs & Operational Metrics: Establish and track key AP performance metrics—such as invoice cycle times, PO matching accuracy, paid-on-time percentages, and cost-per-invoice—to eliminate manual friction points.

4. Month-End Close, Accuracy & GL Alignment

• Subledger Integrity: Ensure AP subledgers across all global entities are complete, accurate, and reconciled on tight timelines to support an accelerated month-end close engine.
• Accrual Governance: Partner with General Accounting and FP&A on unbilled PO accrual methodologies, expense recognition rules, period-end cutoffs, and GR/IR reconciliation.

5. Governance, SOX Compliance & Audit Readiness

• Internal Control Environment: Design, maintain, and enforce a robust internal control framework across all AP operations aligned with SOX public-company readiness standards.
• Policy Enforcement & Audit Support: Enforce delegation of authority (DOA) limits, segregation of duties, and corporate approval hierarchies; serve as the primary AP contact for external audit testing and walkthroughs.

6. Team Leadership & Organizational Scaling

• Team Development: Build, mentor, and scale a global AP and operational accounting team, elevating direct reports from transactional processing to analytical process governance.
• Operational Culture: Foster a team culture grounded in accountability, service excellence, and proactive cross-functional collaboration across multiple regions and time zones.

• Experience: 10+ years of progressive corporate accounting or global AP/shared services experience, with at least 3+ years managing multi-entity or global AP and P2P accounting operations.

• Systems Expertise: Hands-on experience with ERP systems and P2P/AP automation tools (e.g., NetSuite, Zip, Coupa).

Requirements:
