At Trustpilot, we’re on an ambitious journey to modernise how we manage spend, payments, and supplier relationships globally. As a high-performing, publicly listed FTSE business, we operate across multiple entities and currencies — with the governance, accountability, and controls you’d expect of a regulated environment. We’re investing boldly in scalable systems, automation, and talent to build a world-class Procure-to-Pay (P2P) capability. We’re now seeking an Accounts Payable Manager who can elevate our AP function from operational excellence to strategic value creation. You’ll lead a small team through transformation — including the roll-out of our new procurement orchestration and invoice automation platform — while ensuring accuracy, control, and scalability across our global footprint.

Manage global payment runs and ensure adherence to contractual and policy-based payment terms. Oversee Travel & Expense (T&E) and corporate card programmes, ensuring adherence to policy and visibility of spend. 2. Process Optimisation, Automation & Transformation Champion the design, implementation, and adoption of our new P2P platform, streamlining vendor onboarding, purchase orders, and invoice processing. Identify and deliver automation opportunities using AI, OCR, or RPA to reduce manual intervention and cycle times. Establish and monitor key AP performance metrics (e.g. invoice turnaround time, exception rate, cost per invoice, on-time payment %). Partner with Procurement, IT, and Corporate Systems to integrate AP processes with upstream and downstream systems (ERP, finance, reporting). Lead training, change management, and communication to embed new ways of working across global teams. Develop standard operating procedures, dashboards, and insights to enhance compliance and decision-making. 3. Controls, Compliance & Audit Own AP policies, approval hierarchies, and purchasing controls in collaboration with Finance and Procurement. Ensure vendor master data governance, segregation of duties, and internal controls meet audit requirements. Partner with Legal and Tax to ensure compliance on VAT, withholding taxes, and cross-border payments. Support internal and external audits, proactively addressing findings and maintaining robust documentation. 4. People Leadership & Development Lead, coach, and inspire a high-performing AP team, building a culture of accountability and collaboration. Create development pathways, cross-training, and succession plans to grow future leaders.
