• Liaise with suppliers to resolve queries, apply discounts, and ensure credit notes are properly formatted, matched, and processed promptly.
• Ensure documentation meets audit standards, proactively manage risk, and escalate any non-compliant or suspicious activity.
• Reconcile creditor statements, investigate discrepancies, prepare accruals, and act as a backup to the Finance Manager during month-end processes.
• Champion the D365 system and related tools (Ex flow, FinOps), support testing during upgrades, and identify opportunities to streamline invoicing and payment processes.
