Meet the team behind this journey

You'll join the Finance Operations team within P2P (Procure-to-Pay), working directly with our P2P lead and a close-knit Procurement, Accounts Payable and Travel & Expenses team. As DeepL scales internationally, our team is running a broad transformation programme to overhaul procurement and payment processes, tightening governance and building the infrastructure and activities that allows the business to scale fast without losing control. This role gives you hands-on exposure to end-to-end AP processes, working closely with senior team members to build your skills across the P2P function.

Your responsibilities

• Process supplier invoices accurately and on time: receiving, verifying, coding and posting in line with matching principles and approval workflows.

• Support analysis of AP ageing, spend, and approval data, helping identify trends and flagging issues for review by senior team members.

• Leverage AI tools to work smartly, optimising invoice processing workflows and delivering actionable financial insights.

• Assist with variance analysis on AP accruals and open POs, and support cash flow forecasting under guidance.

• Develop a working understanding of double-entry accounting principles, and how AP transactions (invoices, accruals, payments, VAT) flow through the P&L and Balance Sheet.

• Support Travel & Expenses reporting, monitoring travel, expense claims and card spend for policy compliance, and helping produce regular reporting for budget owners.

• Reconcile vendor statements and resolve day-to-day discrepancies and queries directly with suppliers.

• Reconcile corporate credit card statements, keeping the subledger up to date and matched to supporting receipts.

• Support month-end and year-end close activities, including accruals, open Purchase Order reviews and journal support.

• Maintain accurate, audit-ready documentation and support internal and external audit requests.

• Assist Procurement, Legal, and budget owners with onboarding new suppliers and contracts.

• Help develop the P2P team's structures and standards for DeepL, contributing to digitalisation and automation initiatives as part of the wider P2P transformation programme.

• Use tools including Workday, Omnea, and Databricks-based reporting to track invoice status, ageing, and key metrics, building dashboards and ad-hoc analysis to support budget owners' decision-making. Leveraging Claude and Gemini to automate key processes and reporting.

Qualities we look for

What you bring (must-haves):

• Working knowledge of Claude or similar AI tools, and confidence picking up new tools at pace.

• Proven experience of financial analysis in an accounts payable or general finance/accounting role, ideally within a fast-paced or international environment (typically 3+ years).

• Comfortable building financial analysis from transactional data - spend trends, ageing, variance or forecasting — rather than just reporting raw numbers.

• Bringing an ability to describe trends in the numbers, making observations and recommendations to shape tangible actions for the team and stakeholders.

• Hands-on experience with finance/procurement systems such as NetSuite, Workday, Omnea, Databricks or equivalent, plus strong Excel/spreadsheet modelling skills.

• Strong attention to detail and a methodical, structured and goal-oriented approach to analysis, reconciliations, and documentation.

• An outgoing, self-motivated personality with strong communication and organisational skills.

Nice-to-have:

• Strong understanding of Procurement and/or Accounts Payable processes.

• Experience with Databricks, Omnea, or similar procurement/data platforms.

• Exposure to transformation, automation, or process improvement initiatives.

• Controls discipline in a fast paced working environment.

• Experience of cash management and working with Treasury to drive cash flow efficiency.
