Accounts Payable Manager | Luxury Retail | London | £45,000 | Permanent
I am supporting a high-growth, digital-first, omni-channel luxury retail business that is looking for an experienced Accounts Payable Manager to take full ownership of a busy AP function on a permanent basis.
This role reports directly into the Group Financial Controller and sits at the heart of a finance team going through a period of positive transition, including a recent NetSuite implementation. The environment is fast-paced, commercially focused, and customer-centric. They need someone hands-on, resilient, and comfortable taking control of a manual, process-heavy function while helping shape what comes next.
The Role
You will take responsibility for the timely and accurate processing of invoices, supplier management, and maintaining the integrity of the accounts payable process end to end. This is a doing role. You will lead by example and own the function rather than manage a large team around you.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities Include:
- Processing high-volume, multi-currency invoices and checking and coding them accurately.
- Matching invoices to purchase orders and recording bank transactions.
- Performing bank reconciliations and supplier statement reconciliations.
- Managing aged creditors reporting and processing weekly payment runs and ad hoc supplier payments.
- Handling supplier queries professionally and efficiently.
- Setting up and maintaining supplier accounts.
- Processing staff expenses and credit card reconciliations.
- Supporting month-end reconciliations and assisting with annual PSA returns.
- Supporting process improvements and ERP transition preparation.
You will also be involved in wider finance activity including expense systems, carbon reporting support, and ad hoc project work as the business continues to grow.
What They Are Looking For
- Strong Accounts Payable experience at Senior AP or AP Manager level, with a background in retail, e-commerce, or high-volume commercial environments.
- Comfortable operating in a manual process environment without needing heavy infrastructure around you.
- Strong Excel capability and experience managing multi-currency transactions.
- Confident dealing with stakeholders across the business and able to prioritize independently under pressure.
- Resilient and solutions-focused with a genuine desire to improve what you inherit.
- NetSuite exposure is a must for this role.

The Opportunity
This is a rare chance to step into a permanent AP Manager role at a well-known luxury brand, with genuine scope to shape the function and play a meaningful part in the ERP transition ahead. The team is supportive and collaborative, but they need someone who can take control quickly and work with a level of autonomy from day one.
If you are at AP Manager or Senior AP level, have retail or high-volume AP experience, and are on a short notice period or immediately available, I would welcome a conversation.
