Job description

The Role

We're looking for a Strategic Accounts Payable Data Analyst to join our Head Office team in Enderby on a permanent basis.

 

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys analysing complex data, uncovering the root causes of issues, and using insight to improve financial performance and operational efficiency. Working closely with the wider Finance team, you'll play a key role in enhancing our Accounts Payable processes, reducing risk, and delivering measurable value to the business.

 

You will be required in the office in Leicestershire, 5 days a week

 

What You Will Take On

 

As our Strategic Accounts Payable Data Analyst, you will:

 

  • Turn data into actionable insight by using Power BI and Microsoft Excel to analyse invoice ingestion channels, monitor straight-through processing rates, and provide meaningful reporting that supports effective resource planning.

     

  • Protect financial accuracy by identifying duplicate invoices, VAT discrepancies, and other exceptions before payment runs, while developing risk-based statement reconciliation processes to strengthen financial controls.

     

  • Drive efficiency and cash flow performance by tracking early settlement discounts, analysing Days Payable Outstanding (DPO), and identifying opportunities to optimise working capital while maintaining strong supplier relationships.

     

  • Identify opportunities for improvement by investigating the root causes of process issues and recommending practical, data-driven solutions that reduce manual intervention and improve end-to-end performance.

     

  • Collaborate with stakeholders across Finance, Procurement, IT and external suppliers, presenting clear insights and influencing positive change through evidence-based recommendations.

     

What You Will Bring

 

You'll be a naturally curious and analytical problem solver who enjoys working with data and translating it into meaningful business improvements. You'll also have:

 

  • Advanced skills in Power BI and Microsoft Excel, with the ability to interrogate, manipulate and interpret large datasets.

     

  • A strong understanding of the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) process and how upstream data quality impacts downstream operational performance.

     

  • A proactive approach to identifying root causes, challenging existing processes, and driving continuous improvement.

     

  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the confidence to present findings and influence decision-making across departments and with external suppliers.

     

  • Strong attention to detail, with a focus on maintaining financial accuracy and mitigating risk.
