We are looking for an Accounts Payable Clerk to support our payables function at Cognism. This is a hands-on role responsible for the day-to-day processing of vendor bills, credit card transactions, and employee expense reports, reporting to the Director of Accounting.

This part-time role offers the flexibility to organise your day around your personal needs, while helping keep our financial operations running smoothly. As long as weekly deadlines are met, you're free to manage your own schedule.
Key Accountabilities
- Invoice Processing: Accurately code and process vendor bills, credit card transactions, and employee expense reports in a timely manner.
- Vendor Communication: Respond to vendor queries about invoice status, discrepancies, and payments, escalating anything unresolved to the Director of Accounting.
- Vendor Data: Maintain the AP master file data ensuring timely updates of address and bank data.
- Payment Support: Help prepare weekly/monthly payment runs and ensure supporting documentation is complete and accurate.
- Compliance: Follow AP policies and procedures consistently; flag anything that looks like a compliance or control issue.
- Process Awareness: Note recurring issues or inefficiencies in day-to-day processing and suggest them to the Director of Accounting as opportunities for improvement.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with treasury, finance, and other relevant departments to streamline AP processes, resolve issues, and ensure timely and accurate financial information sharing.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
