  • Coordinate monthly Construction Spend Reports and support WIP closure processes.
  • Maintain and manage the AP inbox, ensuring all queries are actioned promptly.
  • Support month-end activities, reporting requirements, and ad hoc finance projects.
  • Assist and support the AP team, including collaboration with offshore resources.
  • Build strong relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, project teams, and senior management.
About You:
  • Minimum 5 years' experience in a senior accounts payable role.
  • Previous experience within the construction, property, civil, or real estate sectors is essential.

  • Experience managing high-volume invoice processing environments.
