Accounts Payable & Finance Operations Executive
We are looking for an experienced Accounts Payable person to join us here at Excel Recruitment just off Capel Street in North Dublin City. Work from home option once settled in this role.
Reporting to the Financial Controller, I am looking for someone who wants exposure beyond a typical Accounts Payable job, as there is real scope to grow into a broader finance role.
Yes, you’ll take ownership of AP-but this is really about becoming a key part of a fast-moving, high-performing, and growing finance function.
You’ll be working in a business that values pace, accountability, and with people who take initiative, move quickly, and expect high standards.
The job of Accounts Payable will suit someone who is curious, driven, and wants to build a career in finance-not just process invoices.
This role is designed to grow and for the right person, there is clear opportunity to take on greater involvement in month-end, journals and financial analysis, and broader finance responsibilities as the business scales.
Salary & Package:
- Up to €45k but must reflect experience
- Bonus
- Discounted Health Insurance
- 5% Pension Contribution
Responsibilities for the job of Accounts Payable Executive:
Accounts Payable (Own It End-to-End)
- Full ownership of the AP function from invoice through to payment
- Review and approve invoice coding and postings
- Manage supplier relationships and resolve queries quickly
- Run payment cycles accurately and on time
- Keep the purchase ledger clean, with no aged or unresolved items
- Ensure all balances are correct ahead of month-end
Cash & Banking
- Daily monitoring and reconciliation of bank activity
- Investigate and resolve any discrepancies immediately
- Process employee expenses and company credit cards
- Post all bank transactions accurately
- Ensure all bank accounts are fully reconciled and up to date
Month-End Support
- Prepare accruals and prepayments
- Support journal postings (with scope to take on more over time)
- Deliver accurate reconciliations to tight deadlines
- Understand and explain what’s driving the numbers-not just report them
- Flag issues early and bring solutions, not problems
Controls & Standards
- Maintain a strong, disciplined control environment
- Ensure processes are followed properly every time
- Keep documentation clear and up to date
- Play your part in delivering clean audits and high-quality reporting
Continuous Improvement
- Challenge how things are done-if something feels slow or clunky, fix it
- Suggest and implement better ways of working
- Take ownership of improvements within your area
- Support wider finance projects as the business grows
What Success Looks Like
- Payments are always accurate and on time
- No backlog, no mess-clean ledgers and reconciliations
- Month-end runs smoothly and on schedule
- Problems are identified early and solved quickly
- Processes get better over time-not stay the same
- You become someone the team relies on
