Job Description

From the open road to our digital channels and retail stores across the country, Comoto is the ultimate destination for motorcycle enthusiasts. Behind every smooth transaction and trusted vendor relationship is an exceptional AP team, and we're looking for a sharp, transformation-minded Director of Accounts Payable to take the helm.

In this role, you'll blend hands-on operational leadership with big-picture strategy. You'll champion a high-performing team, leverage automation to modernize our systems, and build strong cross-functional bridges with Procurement, Accounting, and Treasury. If you have 10+ years of AP experience, a track record of driving system upgrades, and a passion for building rock-solid controls in a growing business, we want to hear from you.

Our Director of AP Will:

  • Drive AP Strategy & Scale: Establish the vision, operating model, and strategic priorities for the Accounts Payable function to support a rapidly growing organization.
  • Lead & Champion the Team: Directly lead, coach, and develop a high-performing AP team (2-4 direct reports), fostering a culture of continuous improvement, accountability, and outstanding service.
  • Manage End-to-End Operations: Oversee the accurate, timely processing of all PO- and non-PO-backed invoices, payment execution, month-end close responsibilities (accruals, reconciliations, cutoffs), departmental workload prioritization, and serve as a key contact for audits.
  • Optimize Systems & Processes: Drive ongoing process improvements, lead AP system transformations, and leverage automation technology to boost operational efficiency and scalability.
  • Build Cross-Functional Partnerships: Collaborate closely with Procurement, Treasury, Accounting, IT, and internal business leaders to resolve issues, strengthen internal controls, and streamline the procure-to-pay cycle.
  • Govern Vendor Relationships: Own vendor master governance, ensure data integrity, resolve disputes promptly, and partner with stakeholders to maintain excellent vendor relations.
  • Ensure Compliance & Control: Maintain a rock-solid internal control environment (including segregation of duties) and ensure full compliance with AP-related tax and regulatory requirements (e.g., 1099 reporting, unclaimed property).
  • Deliver Insights & Guidance: Track KPIs, present AP performance metrics, and serve as the go-to functional expert advising senior leadership on policy, system upgrades, and operational risk.
Qualifications

Our Director of AP Has:

  • Deep Expertise & Leadership: 10+ years of total AP experience with 4+ years in a leadership/management role with a background in omni-channel retail, manufacturing, or distribution environments.
  • Transformation Track Record: Proven, hands-on experience leading AP system transformations and implementing automation.
  • Strong Educational Foundation: An Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Accounting, or a related field.
  • Core Skills: Excellent problem-solving, decision-making, and communication skills, with a track record of building strong working relationships across an organization.
  • Agility: A self-starter mindset with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
  • Bonus Points (Preferred):
    • Familiarity or experience with JD Edwards and RetailPro systems.
