## About this task

This specialty insurer for gig workers (501–1,000 employees) is looking for a senior Accounts Payable Specialist for an ongoing part-time engagement of 4–10 h a week. Enters invoices, matches them to purchase orders and routes them for approval.

The person who did this left, and the company would rather bring in an experienced part-timer than rush a permanent hire. It is an insurer, so accuracy and an audit trail come before speed.

The company prefers a person who can come to Edinburgh for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (UK time).

## What you deliver

- Process the week's 120 vendor invoices with two-way matching and chase approvers for the 10 oldest.

- Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day

- A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends

- A written update every Wednesday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked

## What a week looks like

- Thursday: pick up the queue and confirm priorities

- Midweek: two short working sessions of one to two hours

- Wednesday: update sent before the company's end of day

**Duration:** 12 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.
