The Opportunity

A listed business is looking for a Shared Services Manager to take ownership of its Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable functions. This is a hands-on leadership role with real visibility across the finance team - you'll set the standard for how the transactional finance engine runs, and you'll have the mandate to sharpen process, lift performance, and develop your people.

It's a role that rewards someone who leads from the front. Whether you're an established Shared Services Manager or a strong AP/AR team leader ready to make the step up, what matters is that you know how to run a high-volume function well and bring your team with you.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and develop the AP and AR teams, setting clear priorities and lifting capability
  • Own end-to-end transactional processing, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and controls
  • Drive process improvement across the shared services function
  • Manage supplier and customer relationships, resolving escalations effectively
  • Report on key metrics - DSO, ageing, payment runs - and act on the numbers
  • Partner with the broader finance team to support month-end and wider commercial goals
About You
You're a natural people leader who's run - or is ready to run - an AP/AR function in a sizeable business. You bring strong technical grounding in transactional finance, a process-improvement mindset, and the confidence to hold standards while developing your team. Exposure to a listed or large-corporate environment is a plus, but drive and the right leadership instinct matter most.

What's On Offer
  • Permanent, full-time role with a stable listed employer
  • Hybrid working arrangement
  • The autonomy to shape and improve the function
  • A genuine platform to build your management track record
