Lorenzo Duraan
@lorenzoduraan
Creditors and Accounts Payable leader driving accurate payments, reconciliations, and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Creditors and Accounts Payable professional with over 7 years of experience managing local and foreign creditors end-to-end—from supplier reconciliations and payment processing to foreign exchange transactions and BOP reporting. I authorise and release daily, weekly, and monthly payment runs, ensure accurate GL allocations, and strengthen controls through consistent compliance with finance policies.
I’ve led and mentored accounts payable teams, supported month-end and year-end close with accruals and provisions, and prepared audit documentation for internal and external audits. With strong systems experience in SYSPRO, Sage, and Pastel, plus advanced Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUP/lookup functions), I continuously improve processes and SOPs to maintain supplier relationships and operational efficiency.
