About the Role
If you work in Accounts Payable, you'll know there's a fairly big difference between working in AP and actually being good at it. This job is for someone in the second camp.
This company needs someone who can come in, understand how a busy AP function works, keep on top of the detail and get things done without needing to be chased every five minutes. You'll report to the Accounts Payable Manager and play an important part in keeping the function running properly.
What you'll be doing:
- Running payments through SAP
- Concur administration and expense approvals
- Managing IDOCs
- Posting direct debits
- Producing daily reports
- Dealing with one-time payment reconciliation and clearing
- Supporting audit requests
- Keeping the AP ledger tidy and making sure controls and procedures are followed
- Working with Finance and other teams across the business to resolve queries
- Maintaining good relationships with internal and external stakeholders
- General housekeeping across the AP function
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Comfortable working accurately when deadlines are tight

Ultimately, they're looking for someone dependable, switched-on and experienced enough to know what a good AP function looks like. Someone who'll keep things moving, sort problems when they crop up and make the Accounts Payable Manager's life easier rather than harder.
