What I'm looking for

I seek a remote or hybrid finance role where I can lead AP operations, improve processes, support system migrations, and mentor junior staff.

I am a results-focused Accounts Payable specialist with 20 years' experience across SMEs and global organisations, adept at managing multi-entity and multi-currency AP processes. I work effectively in remote and collaborative environments and have supported finance teams through migrations, reconciliations, and vendor management.

I have hands-on proficiency in NetSuite, Yokoy, Concur, Bill.com, Sage, Coupa and advanced Excel, and I have implemented AP processes for new entities and multiple SPVs. I have led payment runs, handled FX and VAT reconciliations, and maintained strong vendor relationships.

My background includes training and supervising junior staff, supporting year-end invoice backlogs, and participating in system migrations to streamline workflows and controls. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and committed to delivering accurate, compliant financial operations.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Business Studies (Accountancy) and completed a CIMA qualification; I seek roles where I can apply deep AP expertise to improve processes, support growth, and contribute to a high-performing finance function.
