About the Role:

As PTP/ Accounts Payable Senior Specialist with German language skills, you will be the focal and escalation point for vendors regarding Accounts Payables (AP) issues for all brands. Your role will involve handling incoming and outgoing phone calls, managing vendor interactions, and ensuring all relevant information is captured and shared with internal stakeholders.
