WARP GROUP

Finance Assistant (Accounts Payable) – Full Time

About Warp

Warp is a leading independent record and music publishing company releasing music by ground-breaking and influential artists, including Aphex Twin, Flying Lotus, Danny Brown, Brian Eno, Nightmares on Wax, Squid, Autechre, Stereolab and many more.

The Role

This is a key role within our Finance team, with day-to-day responsibility for accounts payable across the Warp group of companies.

Reporting to the Finance Manager and working as part of a team of five in our UK office, you’ll take ownership of the purchase ledger cycle: from processing invoices and expenses through to supplier reconciliations and weekly payment runs.

Warp operates across multiple companies and currencies, so there is plenty of variety. You’ll process a high volume of invoices across Microsoft Dynamics and Xero, manage payments in GBP, EUR and USD, and work with Pleo and Revolut for employee expenses.

You’ll also be an important point of contact for suppliers and colleagues across Warp. We’re therefore looking for someone who is organised and accurate, but who also enjoys working with people, solving problems and taking ownership of their work.

Experience within music, media or another creative industry would be useful, but it isn’t essential. More important is that you’re enthusiastic, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-paced, creative and often noisy sociable environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Take day-to-day ownership of accounts payable across the Warp group of companies.
• Process, code and post a high volume of purchase invoices accurately and efficiently across Microsoft Dynamics and Xero.
• Maintain the accounts payable ledgers, ensuring supplier accounts are regularly reconciled and discrepancies are investigated and resolved promptly.
• Manage the weekly payment run, including multi-currency payments in GBP, EUR and USD, ensuring payments are accurate, appropriately approved and made on time.
• Maintain strong accounts payable controls, including appropriate verification of new suppliers and changes to supplier bank details.
• Process and manage employee expenses through Pleo and Revolut, ensuring expenditure is appropriately coded and approved.
• Set up and maintain supplier records and respond to invoice and payment queries.
• Build effective relationships with suppliers and with teams across Warp, helping to resolve queries and ensure invoices are approved promptly.
• Support the month-end close, ensuring the purchase ledger is complete and accurate and assisting with cut-off, accruals and other AP-related month-end activities as required.
• Regularly review supplier statements and aged creditor balances, investigating and clearing outstanding items.
• Identify opportunities to improve AP processes, controls and ways of working.
• Support the Finance Manager and wider Finance team with ad-hoc projects and queries as required.
