Role Overview
Permira is building a Transaction Centre in Madrid to centralise Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable activity for the firm globally, under a single team and standardised way of working. The Transaction Centre Associate will help stand up and run this new function, supporting the transition of AP/AR activity from local teams, and contributing to the design of consistent processes, controls and systems across the firm's entities.
Key Responsibilities
- Support the end-to-end processing of accounts payable and accounts receivable transactions across entities as they onboard to the Transaction Centre.
- Assist with the transition and standardisation of AP/AR processes previously run locally, helping to design consistent workflows, controls and documentation.
- Process invoices, expenses and payments, and manage the resolution of queries with suppliers, customers and internal stakeholders.
- Reconcile supplier and customer accounts, investigate discrepancies, and ensure accuracy and timeliness of processing.
- Support the roll-out and adoption of AP/AR systems and tools, acting as a day-to-day user and point of contact for onboarding entities.
- Maintain accurate master data (supplier/customer records, bank details, coding) across systems.
- Support month-end close activities relevant to AP/AR, and assist with audit requests as needed.
- Contribute to process improvement and documentation as the Transaction Centre scales to cover additional entities and geographies.
Knowledge, Skills & Experience
- Previous experience in Accounts Payable and/or Accounts Receivable within an international organisation.
- Relevant accounting, finance or business background.
- Organised and self-motivated, with strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
- Comfortable working with standardised processes and systems across multiple entities and geographies.
- Good communication and customer-service skills, able to build effective working relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
- Able to work to deadlines in a fast-paced, changing environment, as the Transaction Centre is being built out.
- Competent user of Microsoft Excel; experience with AP/AR systems (e.g. Yooz, Infor Sun Systems) is an advantage but not essential.
