I am with an accounting search firm working with a company in the area looking to fill an AP Manager. Step into a high-impact leadership role where you’ll modernize processes, lead a strong team, and drive real efficiency across a growing multi-entity organization.
If you’re a hands-on AP leader with Workday expertise, this is your chance to shape systems, mentor talent, and elevate operations at scale.


Accounts Payable Manager


Salary: up to 90K base


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Direct exposure to and partnership with the VP of Finance and senior leadership

  • Lead and develop a sizable AP team with real influence on department performance

  • Play a key role in Workday Financials optimization and ongoing enhancements

  • Opportunity to drive automation, streamline workflows, and improve efficiency

  • Visibility across multiple entities in a complex, growing organization

  • Strong mix of strategic oversight and hands-on operational leadership

  • Stable, well-established company with long-term growth and expansion

  • Collaborative cross-functional environment with Finance, IT, and Operations

  • Ability to shape policies, controls, and best practices across the AP function


Key Responsibilities for the Accounts Payable Manager:



  • Oversee daily AP operations including invoices, payments, and expense processing

  • Lead, mentor, and manage AP staff while ensuring deadlines and accuracy

  • Drive process improvements, automation, and workflow optimization

  • Support month-end close, audits, and financial reporting activities

  • Serve as AP lead for Workday Financials including enhancements and issue resolution

  • Ensure compliance with tax regulations, 1099 reporting, and internal controls


Qualifications for the Accounts Payable Manager:



  • 5+ years of AP leadership experience in a multi-entity environment

  • Proven experience managing teams of 8+ employees

  • Strong hands-on experience with Workday Financials
