Accounts Payable Team Leader

Company Description
**Are you ready to be a big part of something big?**

At carsales, we're all about making buying and selling a great experience. For 25 years we’ve been evolving with the new economy to help people choose how they move today and tomorrow.

When it comes to your career, we want to provide big opportunities to help you make a big impact. But for this to be possible, we strive to feel small. Small enough to quickly change tack, small enough to learn from different departments and small enough to connect authentically with leadership.

Not something you’d expect from one of the country’s biggest tech companies, is it?

And one of the best parts? We give you the autonomy to choose the working location that best suits your lifestyle - Office, Hybrid or Anywhere.

This is your opportunity to join carsales as the Accounts Payable Team Leader. In this role, you will lead the Accounts Payable function, driving process efficiencies and improvements, whilst building strong relationships with stakeholders, both internal and external.

Our Finance team has a full understanding of how each of our business units work, as they collaborate and share ideas with all our teams to ensure we are always delivering the best possible user experience to our customers.

**What’s on offer**:

- A place where you can move your career forward, where you’ll be continuously backed to make new ideas happen, and the chance to do work that makes real, significant impact in the world.
- We’re a certified Great Place to Work, Family Friendly Workplace and WGEA Employer of Choice.
- The support of a highly engaged, high-performing team including a leadership team that you’ll actually have face time with.
- 18 weeks paid parental leave for primary caregivers, four weeks paid secondary caregivers leave, six weeks paid gender affirming care leave.

**Job Description**:
**What you will be doing**
- Manage and support the Accounts Payable team, currently a team of two.
- Oversee and be hands-on in the end-to-end Accounts Payable process. This includes:

- Set up and maintenance of supplier records.
- Management of supplier pay runs.
- Reconciling supplier statements.
- Staff expense reimbursement.
- Management and maintenance of corporate credit cards.
- Compile support documents for internal and external audit requests.
- Month end duties including report generation, journals, reconciliations.
- Small business Payment Times Reporting.

**Qualifications**:
**What we are looking for**
- Demonstrate inclusive and interpersonal attributes that connect you to our behaviours (we change the game, we own it, we step in, we are curious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously).
- Experience leading an accounts payable function, preferably in a medium to large organisation.
- Demonstrated experience leading, coaching and developing an accounts payable team.
- Intermediate Excel skills including confidence dealing with large data sets, using Pivot tables and VLOOKUP.
- Basic accounting knowledge (posting journals including accruals and prepayments and completion of reconciliations).
- Experience with NetSuite, Flexipurchase, Eftsure or Zendesk would be great but not essential.
