To excel as an Accounts Payable Assistant, you will bring substantial hands-on experience from previous roles within accounts payable functions-ideally gained in complex environments where accuracy is paramount. Your background should include familiarity with major finance ERPs like Oracle Fusion or SAP as well as exposure to workflow automation tools that streamline invoice processing.

* Significant experience working within an accounts payable team with a thorough understanding of accounting principles relevant to supplier payments.
