About The Role

We're hiring an Accounts Payable & Receivable Specialist to support the APAC finance operations of a globally operating automotive company with subsidiaries across the Asia-Pacific region.

This role is primarily transactional — roughly 70–80% of your time will be high-volume AP and AR processing — but it's far from just data entry. You'll be the one keeping cashflow accurate, dealer payments on time, and the finance team's books clean. You'll work closely with the Regional Finance Manager and a Senior Finance Analyst, and interact regularly with dealership finance teams and external suppliers across time zones.

If you're detail-obsessed, comfortable working autonomously, and can hold your own in a fast-moving environment — this one's worth a look.
