ABOUT US
At OakNorth, we're on a mission to empower ambitious businesses and the communities they serve. Since 2015, we've lent over $21 billion across the UK and US, helped create more than 58,000 new homes and 36,000 new jobs, and supported hundreds of thousands of personal savers — all while driving economic growth in the markets we serve.
ABOUT THE TEAM
Our Finance team sits at the heart of OakNorth's operations, supporting a fast-scaling business across India, the UK, and the US. The Accounts Payable function is a critical part of that engine — ensuring suppliers are paid accurately and on time, compliance obligations are met across multiple jurisdictions, and finance processes are continually improving. This is a team that takes ownership, embraces automation, and partners closely with the rest of the business to drive operational excellence.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for an experienced Manager – Accounts Payable to lead end-to-end AP operations across India, the UK, and the US. Reporting into Finance leadership, you will own invoice processing, multi-jurisdictional compliance, vendor payments, and month-end close, while driving process automation and continuous improvement. This role has a direct impact on OakNorth's operational efficiency and supplier relationships as we continue to scale.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Manage end-to-end Accounts Payable operations, including invoice processing, approvals, reconciliations, and payments (vendor, intercompany, and taxes).
Ensure accurate accounting and compliance for India, UK, and US invoices, including GST, TDS, UK VAT, and US sales/use tax requirements.
Complete payment runs, vendor reconciliations, and resolve supplier escalations to ensure timely and accurate payments.
Support month-end and year-end close, AP reporting to internal and external stakeholders, and statutory/government reporting requirements.
Ensure compliance with internal controls, audit requirements, company policies, and regulatory standards.
Drive process standardisation, automation, and continuous improvement initiatives using AP automation tools and AI-enabled solutions for invoice processing, exception management, and analytics.
Develop and monitor AP KPIs, prepare management reports and dashboards, and provide actionable insights using advanced Excel and BI tools.
Collaborate with Procurement, Finance, Tax, Treasury, and Business stakeholders to improve operational efficiency and vendor experience.
Support and develop team members, fostering a culture of accuracy, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Coordinate with Treasury to ensure timely domestic and international supplier payments, support cash flow forecasting and working capital management, and drive payment automation and process improvements.
YOU'LL BE A GREAT FIT IF YOU HAVE…
8–10 years of Accounts Payable experience, preferably in a multinational or shared services environment, with a track record of leading AP processes or teams.
Strong knowledge of AP operations across India, the UK, and the US, including GST, TDS, UK VAT, and US sales/use tax compliance.
Proficiency in ERP platforms such as NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics.
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including Pivot Tables, XLOOKUP, Power Query, Power Pivot, dashboards, and financial reporting.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, stakeholder management, communication, and people leadership skills.
A Bachelor's degree in Commerce, Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
Nice to Have
CA Inter, CMA, ACCA, MBA (Finance), or equivalent professional qualification.
Experience with AP transformation, automation, and AI-powered finance tools, including Generative AI (e.g. Claude, Microsoft Copilot, or ChatGPT) to improve productivity, reporting, and process efficiency.
WHAT WE OFFER
Health & Protection: Comprehensive medical cover for you, your family, and parents, along with life and accidental insurance cover at a multiple of your salary.
Wellbeing: Annual health check-ups, online doctor consultations, pharmacy discounts, nutritionist support, and Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services — all sponsored by OakNorth.
