- Lead, coach, and develop the accounts payable team, including management and support staff, to promote accountability and continuous improvement.
- Co-lead procure-to-pay governance efforts by participating in steering committee activities and helping align cross-functional workflows.
- Oversee Workday-related enhancements by coordinating testing, delivering team training, and resolving system issues that affect payables processing.
- Work closely with legal and compliance partners to confirm required contracts are maintained, monitor excluded-party requirements, and support related reporting.
- Manage vendor master data by maintaining accurate records, validating tax information, supporting credentialing requirements, and identifying vendors subject to annual tax reporting.
- Prepare and submit required filings and reports, including 1099 and 1042-S reporting, Pennsylvania withholding submissions, escheat processing, and audit support documentation.
