Profile Overview We are looking for our first AP Manager to join our Central Finance team! This is a uniquely hybrid and highly hands-on role.

In this role, you will report directly to our Director of Accounting & Tax and own the Accounts Payable function across a rapidly growing group of 15+ international entities.

Because this is the first dedicated AP hire in our central team, the AP function will be built from the ground up.

This means you will be responsible for both strategic process/system design and the daily, ground-level execution.

You will design the workflows, build the integrations, and implement the internal controls—but you will also be the one directly processing the invoices, coding credit card transactions, and running the payments yourself.

If you are an experienced accounting professional who loves setting up efficient systems but also enjoys rolling up your sleeves to get the daily operational work done, this is the perfect opportunity to make a massive impact Your immediate impact in the first 3-6 months will be:

Successfully take over all Accounts Payable processes from the GL accounting team across all 15+ international entities.

Map out and standardize the procure-to-pay (P2P) workflow across central systems, specifically integrating NetSuite, Ramp, and Pleo.

Draft and deploy a group-wide expense policy and approval matrix to ensure robust internal controls and clear segregation of duties.

Take complete ownership of the AP lifecycle, transitioning responsibilities from GL accountants to build a centralized function from scratch.

Own the day-to-day execution of the AP ledger—manually processing and coding vendor bills, managing credit card transactions, and executing payment runs yourself.

Streamline workflows across NetSuite, Ramp, and Pleo.

Identify automation opportunities using AI and native integrations to make manual data entry as efficient as possible.

Design and execute a group-wide approval matrix, expense policy, and system permissions to ensure compliance and proper segregation of duties.

Manage month-end accruals, perform AP aging analyses, reconcile credit card accounts, and support the central accounting team during the month-end close.

Document standard operating procedures (SOPs) and build lightweight training materials to onboard our brand leaders and central teams onto your newly designed AP processes.

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field with at least 5 years of dedicated experience in accounts payable or general accounting, ideally within a multi-entity environment.

Hands-on, proficient administration experience with NetSuite and Ramp .

Proven track record of building, scaling, or heavily optimizing an AP function (including workflows, approvals, and internal controls).

Active experience leveraging AI tools and automation to optimize financial workflows and eliminate manual processes.

Good familiarity with VAT treatment and compliance for European entities.

Exceptional English communication skills, coupled with an independent, highly structured, and analytical approach to remote work.

Familiarity with Pleo or similar spend/expense management platforms.

Experience drafting and rolling out company-wide expense policies.

Experience onboarding newly acquired entities or brands onto shared finance systems.

We’re 100% remote.

You can work from wherever you like, whenever you like.

You should be available to overlap and work between CET 9:00 ± 2 hours to 18:00 ± 2 hours.

We’re a high-trust team, and you’ll be given lots of flexibility to solve problems in your own way — with plenty of help from the team when you need it.

We don’t like to get bogged down with meetings and red tape.

We like to be efficient and keep momentum steady & sustainable.

We help each other out, have fun, and joke around.
