About Isentia

Isentia is APAC's leader in media intelligence, delivering the critical data and insights that power the world's top brands. We are a passionate, customer-obsessed team dedicated to innovation and collaboration. Working here means you'll be part of a "One Team" culture in a supportive, fast-paced environment where you can truly make an impact.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a meticulous and experienced Accounts Payable Officer to join our regional finance team based in Kuala Lumpur. This is a critical role where you will own the end-to-end procure-to-pay (P2P) cycle for our APAC operations.

If you are a problem-solver with a strong understanding of international payments, multi-currency reconciliations, and month-end closing, we want to hear from you. This is more than just a processing job; you will be the main point of contact for all AP matters and a key player in supporting our financial operations.

What You'll Do (Your Key Responsibilities)

• Full-Cycle AP Management: Own the complete procure-to-pay process, including receiving, verifying, and matching supplier invoices (three-way match), processing staff expense claims, and ensuring correct tax (GST/VAT) treatment.
• Payments & Reconciliation: Manage weekly payment runs for both local and overseas suppliers. You will organize payment batches by currency, perform international bank transfers, and conduct weekly/monthly bank reconciliations.
• Month-End Closing: Play a vital role in the month-end close by managing AP closing, preparing AP aging analysis, managing prepayments, and booking accruals.
• Vendor & Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary point of contact for all AP-related inquiries. You will manage new vendor setups, verify bank details, maintain the vendor master file, and collaborate with internal stakeholders.
• Process Improvement & Audit: Support internal and external audit requests by providing clear documentation. You'll also help us identify gaps, standardize procedures, and improve our AP processes.

What We're Looking For (Your Qualifications)

• Experience: 3-5 years of dedicated experience in an Accounts Payable role.
• Education: A Bachelor's degree in Commerce, Accounting, or a related field. An Accounting Certificate is also highly regarded.
• Core Skills: Proven experience managing the full procure-to-pay cycle, including international payments and multi-currency reconciliations.
• System Savvy: Expertise with ERP systems is highly preferred, especially Netsuite or Navision.
• Communication: Fluent in English (both written and verbal) with the confidence to manage internal and external stakeholders.
• Personal Attributes: Highly organized, strong attention to detail, proactive, and a collaborative team player.
