Temporal is at an interesting point — growing fast, expanding globally, and building the finance infrastructure to match. AP is a high‑volume, high‑accountability function here: a large and growing vendor base, multi‑currency transactions, and a steady stream of inquiries from across the business. We need someone who takes pride in keeping all of that running cleanly, on time, every cycle — without being asked.

You’ll own full‑cycle AP in , manage vendor relationships, administer the expense program in Navan, and be the go‑to for payment questions from Finance, HR, Legal, and the broader business. This role is for someone who is deeply organized and self‑directed.

• Own end‑to‑end invoice processing in  — intake, GL coding, 2‑way and 3‑way PO matching, approval routing, and payment execution via ACH, wire, check, and international wire
• Review and reconcile vendor statements monthly; identify and resolve discrepancies, duplicate payments, and open credits in a timely manner
• Manage payment runs on a consistent schedule; ensure all payments are properly authorized, documented, and recorded in Rillet (our GL system of record)
• Own 1099 preparation and filing — maintain W‑9s and TIN documentation throughout the year, produce accurate 1099‑NEC and 1099‑MISC filings, and respond to IRS notices as needed
• Process invoices across multiple legal entities as international subsidiaries come online — apply the correct entity, currency, and intercompany treatment to each transaction
• Support prepaid schedule tracking and AP accrual entries as part of month‑end close; flag unprocessed invoices and ensure the books reflect actual obligations

• Onboard new vendors from end to end — collect W‑9s and banking information, set up vendor records in , verify payment details before the first disbursement
• Maintain the vendor master with current payment instructions, contact details, and tax documentation; audit the vendor list periodically to identify inactive or duplicate records
• Serve as the primary point of contact for vendor payment inquiries — respond accurately and promptly, and elevate disputes or discrepancies to the appropriate internal stakeholder
• Monitor and manage the AP inbox; triage incoming invoices, statements, and vendor correspondence so nothing falls through the cracks

• Administer the employee expense reimbursement process in Navan — review submissions for policy compliance, coding accuracy, and required receipts; approve or flag exceptions consistently
• Manage the corporate card program in coordination with Finance and HR — handle card issuance and termination, monitor spend against policy, and reconcile card transactions monthly
• Identify recurring policy violations or process friction and bring solutions to the Senior Accounting Manager — the expense process should get cleaner every quarter, not stay the same
• Prepare monthly T&E reporting and variance analysis for department heads and Finance leadership

• Prepare and post AP accrual journal entries in Rillet; ensure all invoices received but not yet processed are captured before close
• Reconcile the AP subledger to the GL monthly; investigate and resolve any variances before books are closed
• Review aged payables and unapplied credits; proactively resolve items…
