  • Proficiency in ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or QuickBooks

  • Strong knowledge of GAAP and internal controls over financial reporting
  • CPA or CMA certification preferred for senior or director-level positions

Tips for Your AP/AR Manager Job Search

Quantify your close-cycle and accuracy metrics

AP/AR managers are measured on days payable outstanding, days sales outstanding, and error rates. Pull those numbers from your last role and put them in your resume's bullet points, not buried in a summary paragraph.

Highlight your ERP and automation tool fluency

Many postings screen hard for SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or QuickBooks experience. List the specific modules you've used, not just the platform name, so your resume passes both automated screening and a hiring manager's first read.

Target postings by company growth stage

Startups building AP/AR from scratch need different skills than enterprises optimizing existing processes. Read the job description for phrases like 'build out' or 'scale' versus 'improve' or 'audit' to match your resume's framing to what they actually want.

Apply early to roles that fit

Migrate Mate lists ap/ar manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.

Prepare for a technical accounting scenario round

Expect at least one interview stage where you walk through a real-world scenario, such as reconciling a disputed vendor invoice or resolving a high-aging receivable. Practice talking through your investigation steps out loud, not just the resolution.

Negotiate using total compensation, not base only

AP/AR manager offers often include performance bonuses tied to DSO or DPO targets. Ask what those targets are before accepting, so you can judge whether the bonus is realistic and factor it into your offer comparison.

AP/AR Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies are hiring the most ap/ar managers?

BDO, KSI, and AJAB are hiring the most ap/ar managers right now, with openings concentrated in California, Florida, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is especially consistent in healthcare systems, real estate firms, and large manufacturing companies that run high invoice volumes.

How many ap/ar manager jobs are remote?

About 25% of ap/ar manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting broader finance team flexibility post-pandemic. Fully remote roles are most common in receivables and billing management, where work is systems-driven, while AP manager roles that handle physical check runs or in-person vendor relationships tend to stay on-site.

How do you become an ap/ar manager?

Start in an AP or AR specialist or coordinator role to build hands-on experience with invoice processing, collections, and reconciliation. Move into a team lead or supervisor position to demonstrate you can manage workflows and staff. Strengthen your ERP proficiency and close-cycle knowledge, and consider earning a CPA or CMA to accelerate your path to manager-level titles.

Can you get hired as an ap/ar manager with little experience?

Some smaller companies and growing startups hire candidates into AP/AR manager roles with two or fewer years of experience if they show strong systems fluency and initiative. Focus your applications on organizations building their finance function rather than optimizing an established one. Demonstrating that you've owned a full AP or AR cycle end-to-end, even at a small company, matters more than years on a resume.

What does the ap/ar manager interview process look like?

Most AP/AR manager interviews run three to four stages: an initial recruiter screen, a hiring manager conversation focused on your process experience and ERP background, a technical or scenario-based round where you walk through reconciliation or aging analysis problems, and a final round with a controller or CFO. Some employers also include a short Excel or accounting software skills assessment before the offer stage.

Where can I find and apply to ap/ar manager jobs?

You can find and apply to ap/ar manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search for roles that match your experience level and industry focus, then apply directly to each listing that fits your background.
