## Job description

## WHO ARE WE

Cognism is the leading provider of European B2B data and sales intelligence. Ambitious businesses of every size use our platform to discover, connect, and engage with qualified decision-makers faster and close more deals. Headquartered in London with global offices, Cognism’s contact data and contextual signals are trusted by thousands of revenue teams to eliminate the guesswork from prospecting.

We are looking for an Accounts Payable Clerk to support our payables function at Cognism. This is a hands-on role responsible for the day-to-day processing of vendor bills, credit card transactions, and employee expense reports, reporting to the Director of Accounting.

We understand that personal commitments don't always fit neatly into a 9-to-5 schedule. This part-time role offers the flexibility to organise your day around your personal needs, while helping keep our financial operations running smoothly. As long as weekly deadlines are met, you're free to manage your own schedule.

## Key Accountabilities

- Invoice Processing: Accurately code and process vendor bills, credit card transactions, and employee expense reports in a timely manner.
- Vendor Communication: Respond to vendor queries about invoice status, discrepancies, and payments, escalating anything unresolved to the Director of Accounting.
- Vendor Data: Maintain the AP master file data ensuring timely updates of address and bank data.
- Payment Support: Help prepare weekly/monthly payment runs and ensure supporting documentation is complete and accurate.
- Compliance: Follow AP policies and procedures consistently; flag anything that looks like a compliance or control issue.
- Process Awareness: Note recurring issues or inefficiencies in day-to-day processing and suggest them to the Director of Accounting as opportunities for improvement.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with treasury, finance, and other relevant departments to streamline AP processes, resolve issues, and ensure timely and accurate financial information sharing.

## Experience Required

- The ideal candidate has 5+ years of experience in accounts payable
- Bachelor’s degree in finance / accounting or business
- Proficiency in NetSuite (AP function) strongly preferred
- Strong MS Excel skills
- Strong knowledge of VAT rules
- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment, highly organised with an exceptional attention to detail
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with team members, vendors, and management.
- Eagerness to learn and willingness to take on new challenges

- **Entity Type**: Private, venture-backed (total funding $131.5M)
- **Headquarters**: London, United Kingdom
- **Founded**: 2015
- **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Sales Intelligence / B2B Data
- **Target customers**: Enterprise and mid-market sales, marketing, and revenue operations teams (B2B, especially those prospecting into EMEA)

## Products & Services
- **Sales Intelligence**: Contact and company data with phone-verified mobiles, decision-maker coverage, and actionable signals (intent, hiring, funding).
- **Data-as-a-Service (DaaS)**: Real-time access to verified B2B data via API or batch delivery, powered by a proprietary data fusion engine that combines news, registries, and third-party sources.
- **Data Enrichment**: Fill gaps in CRM/marketing databases, prioritise ICP segments, and keep records accurate with continuous refresh (30-day cycle for director+ data).
- **CRM Enrichment**: Automatically enrich inbound leads so records are complete and routable from the moment they enter the CRM.
- **Compliance Layer**: GDPR and CCPA compliant data sourcing, strong Do-Not-Call coverage, ISO 27001 and SOC2 framework alignment.

- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Annual revenue of ~GBP 32.9M (LinkedIn estimate); total funding of $131.5M across 10 rounds
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not listed in available sources

## Competitive Advantages
- **Compliance-first posture**: Built-in GDPR/CCPA compliance and extensive European Do-Not-Call coverage – a key differentiator for teams selling into EMEA.
- **Phone-verified data**: Additional verification layers on mobile numbers result in up to 3x higher connect rates.

- **Data refresh cadence**: Decision-maker data refreshed every 30 days, ensuring high accuracy.
- **Proprietary AI-driven data fusion**: Stitches hundreds of data points per company and filters through verification layers.

## Strategic Focus
- Raising the standard for B2B data quality and compliance.
- Expanding platform capabilities (signals, enrichment, API) to cover the full data lifecycle.
- Scaling internationally while maintaining a “data fluency” approach – precision over volume.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Values include “deeply understand our customers,” “own the outcome together,” and “celebrate impact wherever it comes from.” Emphasis on trust, ownership, and collaboration.
- **Global team**: Employees across 20 countries with offices in London, Boston, Paris, Cologne, Skopje, and Zadar. Likely hybrid/office-based depending on location.
- **Diversity**: Careers page highlights that a significant portion of the revenue org and overall workforce are women (exact percentages not provided).
- **Growth**: Opportunity to work on a product that powers modern revenue teams; fast-paced environment with real impact.
- **Recruitment note**: Cognism warns of recruitment scams – they only hire for roles in official office locations and never ask for payment.
