Senior Manager, Accounting Operations (AP & T&E)

ABOUT THE ROLE

Suno's spend is growing fast across vendors, production and creative teams, and a quickly expanding workforce and we need someone to build the accounts payable and T&E function that keeps up with it. As one of the first hires on the accounting team and reporting to the Director of Accounting, you'll own AP and T&E end to end: the systems, the policies, the controls, and the day-to-day operations. You'll tailor processes to the real needs of different teams, our production and creative groups don't operate like everyone else, while keeping the rigor and scalability a growing company depends on, and you'll bring a measured, meaningful approach to AI that unlocks the efficiency a best-in-class operation should have. This is a build-and-operate role for someone who wants to stand up a function the right way and grow into leading it.
