Description
Role: Accounts Payable Accountant (6 month contract )
Hours: Full-time or part time ( Monday- Friday)
Location: Swansea HQ Onsite
Salary: up to £30,000 dependant on experience (pro-rated for part-time)
About Au Vodka
Au Vodka isn’t just a drinks brand, it’s a movement.
Born in Wales and recognised globally, we’ve redefined what a modern FMCG brand can be. From our iconic gold bottles to boundary-pushing flavours, we’ve built a brand that stands out, scales fast, and connects with a new generation of consumers.
Our ambition is bold: to become the first FMCG business founded in Wales to reach a $1 billion valuation. We think global, move fast, and build category-defining brands from unexpected places.
Already sold across multiple international markets, we’re not just part of the spirits industry, we’re disrupting it.
About The Position
The Accounts Payable Accountant position is not a transactional AP role alone — we are looking for someone commercially aware, process-driven and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-growth business environment.
The successful candidate will play a central role in ensuring supplier relationships are managed effectively, payment cycles run smoothly and working capital is optimised through close collaboration with Accounts Receivable and the wider Finance Team
