Accounts Payable Manager
Dallas, TX | Direct Hire | Onsite
LHH is partnering with a large, established organization in Dallas seeking an experienced Accounts Payable Manager. This is a high-impact opportunity for someone who enjoys leading people, improving processes, and helping an established AP function become more efficient and automated.
The right person will be a true operational leader-not someone who manages only from a distance. You'll stay connected to the daily workflow, help the team work through escalations and bottlenecks, and ensure invoices, payments, and month-end responsibilities remain on track.
You'll lead a combination of local employees and offshore support while partnering with leaders across Finance, Treasury, Procurement, Tax, and IT.
What You'll Be Responsible For
Leading daily accounts payable operations in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment
Managing and developing onshore AP employees while coordinating priorities with an offshore support team
Ensuring invoices, payment runs, vendor requests, and month-end activities are completed accurately and on time
Monitoring AP workloads, aging, exceptions, and unresolved items to prevent backlogs
Overseeing multiple payment methods, including ACH, wires, checks, and electronic payments
Handling escalated vendor and internal business issues
Maintaining strong controls surrounding payments, approvals, vendor changes, and sensitive banking information
Supporting audits and ensuring AP documentation remains accurate and complete
Using AP metrics and reporting to identify processing gaps and improve team performance
Partnering with Treasury, Procurement, Tax, IT, and accounting leadership
Improving AP procedures, controls, training materials, and team documentation
Helping optimize Oracle Cloud Financials and related AP technology
Leading automation and process-improvement initiatives designed to reduce manual work and increase scalability
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
5+ years of progressive accounts payable experience
At least two years of AP supervisory or team-lead experience
Experience leading both internal employees and an offshore or outsourced team
Strong understanding of the complete AP lifecycle, including PO and non-PO invoices, matching, vendor maintenance, payment processing, and month-end close
Experience working with Oracle Cloud Financials, Oracle Fusion, or another large enterprise ERP
Knowledge of SOX controls, segregation of duties, audit support, and payment-related risk
Ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines
Strong people leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills
Comfort using reporting and AP data to identify trends, bottlenecks, and opportunities for improvement
Experience That Would Be a Plus
Background supporting AP operations for a large or multi-entity organization
Experience with invoice-capture technology, supplier portals, or touchless invoice processing
Knowledge of vendor tax documentation and 1099/1042 reporting
Experience with virtual cards, e-payables, or supply-chain finance programs
Lean, Six Sigma, or other continuous-improvement exposure
Previous involvement in an ERP enhancement, AP automation, or finance-transformation project
Interest in learning how AI and emerging technology can improve AP operations
Why Consider This Role?
This is an opportunity to lead an established AP operation while still having the ability to shape how it evolves. You'll have visibility with leadership, ownership of a critical finance function, and the chance to make measurable improvements through better workflows, stronger technology, and team development.
If you are a hands-on AP leader who can balance daily execution with continuous improvement, we'd like to hear from you
