SAP Administrator managing and optimizing SAP systems at BEIT GmbH. Integrating cloud services and ensuring the smooth operation of the IT landscape.
About the role
- Accounts Payable Leader responsible for executing AP strategy and leading a team in a hybrid work setting. Collaborating across procurement, accounting, and operations to ensure compliance and efficiency.
Responsibilities
- End-to-end ownership (Indirect & Direct): intake, 2/3-way match, exception handling, disbursements, vendor inquiries, and close activities.
- Escalation lead: act as the primary escalation point; partner closely with the hiring manager and Accounting to rapidly resolve complex exceptions, payment holds, and close blockers.
- Stand up Direct foundations: partner with hardware and operations stakeholders to define and launch asset management and receiving processes required for 3-way match—including building where processes don’t yet exist.
- Scale for growth: improve cycle time, first-pass yield, and on-time payment; strengthen PO discipline and receiving alignment; drive root-cause reduction of top exceptions.
- Controls & compliance: maintain SOX-aligned approvals and documentation; ensure segregation of duties; lead internal/external audit requests and remediation.
- Automation & design: design and implement ERP/AP workflow, OCR/approvals, and integration hygiene to reduce manual touchpoints; partner with Procurement and Accounting on data quality.
- Vendor experience: enable self-service where possible; resolve escalations (price/qty/tax mismatches, credits, banking); negotiate operational terms with Finance/Procurement partners.
- People & partners: manage, mentor, and develop AP staff; oversee BPO/offshore capacity with clear SLAs/KPIs and a continuous-improvement cadence.
- Reporting & comms: own AP dashboards and narratives—aging, cycle time, exceptions, payment forecast, cash needs, and risk themes; communicate progress to leadership.
Requirements
- Bring 8+ years of experience in Accounts Payable or Accounting, including 3+ years leading teams or programs across both Indirect and Direct spend types.
- Have thrived in high-growth, scaling environments, balancing long-term process design with hands-on execution.
- Offer deep technical proficiency in 2-/3-way match, PO discipline, tax handling (sales/use/VAT), and month-end close (accruals, reconciliations).
- Have designed and automated AP workflows, leveraging ERP/AP automation, OCR, approval routing, and RPA—and are willing to get hands-on during volume spikes.
- Maintain a strong controls mindset aligned to SOX, and can confidently partner with Accounting, Procurement, FP&A, and Supply Chain.
- Have hands-on experience with tools like Oracle Fusion, Zip, Navan, VNDLY, Brightflag, Jira, or similar enterprise platforms—especially in integrated environments.
- Have proven experience across Indirect and Direct spend, ideally in high-growth, scaling environments—you’re comfortable building for the future while handling the demands of today.
