Lead a high-performing AP team that keeps JTI’s operations moving.

• Ensure key P2P account reconciliations, JSOX execution and documentation, and audit readiness
• Deliver team KPIs (accuracy, timeliness, compliance) and manage escalations with clear action plans
• Drive continuous improvement: standardize, simplify, and identify automation opportunities
• Coach, develop, and engage a team of 8–12, building a strong backup and handover culture

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance, with strong AP/P2P fundamentals (3-way match, reconciliations)
• 3+ years Finance/Accounting experience (preferably P2P) and 3+ years people management experience
• Confident leading medium-sized teams and driving performance through KPIs
• Strong stakeholder communication, customer focus, and collaboration across markets/functions
• SAP HANA experience (Invoice Track/Blackline is a plus), with a high-accuracy, detail-driven mindset
• Adaptable, improvement-oriented, and demonstrates Our Way behaviors in how you lead and deliver

What to Expect: At JTI GBS, we prioritize your well‑being with comprehensive wellness initiatives, hybrid and flexible work setups, and benefits like daily meals and shuttle services.
