This is for UK and International based suppliers, requested from anyone within the L&G business, but typically from the Accounts Payable team.

- Run reports using Hubble relating to supplier invoices, staff expense claims and supplier/staff setups/amendments. Also, any additional reports that may be required in relation to your role. Ensure all CIS and Foreign currency / supplier invoices are logged, and all checks completed by the cost management teams before processing.
- Ensure payments are made on a daily basis within the system and any TT or international payments are checked by 9.30am each day and sent as per procedure to the Cash Management team for payment.
- Check staff expense claims determine status and approve from an AP perspective in accordance with the staff expense policy and minimise processing errors. Refer unusual claims to the Senior AP Administrator or the Cash Management & Accounts Payable Manager. Ensure that the i-expenses system is investigated monthly, and staff contacted to delete / withdraw or submit any outstanding expenses within the system.
- Ensure your knowledge of the rules/processes & procedures that relate to the various tasks within the Accounts Payable team is maintained. This encompasses any HMRC / Group Tax / L&G specific rules. Ensure all work within the team is completed within the appropriate SLA’s and highlight issues to the Cash Management & Accounts Payable Manager.
