• Manage end-to-end unclaimed property filings, strict Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance frameworks and external auditor deliverables.
• Use generative AI and automation tools to streamline invoice workflows, eliminate manual data discrepancies and accelerate the month-end reconciliation cycle.

Requirements

• Minimum 6 years of progressive corporate accounts payable experience managing North American and global entities within a multinational enterprise.
• Advanced hands-on proficiency navigating complex financial architectures across SAP, Coupa and Blackline platforms.
• Proven success managing US 1099 reporting, escheatment filings and navigating strict Sarbanes-Oxley Act audit environments.
