Job description

Why Choose Bottomline? Are you ready to transform the way businesses pay and get paid? Bottomline is a global leader in business payments and cash management, with over 35 years of experience and moving more than $16 trillion in payments annually. We're looking for passionate individuals to join our team and help drive impactful results for our customers. If you're dedicated to delighting customers and promoting growth and innovation - we want you on our team! Bottomline's Corporate Solutions, underpinned with our AI investment in BEA, brings together accounts receivable, accounts payable, cash management, and payments into a intelligent, connected suite for corporates, giving finance teams real-time visibility and control across the entire cash lifecycle. By embedding BEA, as a governed AI platform, directly into core financial workflows, it enables organizations to move beyond disconnected tools and manual processes, allowing teams to act on data with confidence while maintaining full auditability and oversight. The Opportunity CFOs face growing pressure to improve cash certainty, reduce operational risk and cost, and demonstrate how AI can create measurable value in finance. Yet for many organizations, fragmented systems, manual processes, and disconnected data spread across banks, ERPs, spreadsheets, and point solutions make that goal difficult to achieve. We have announced the launch of BEA, our agentic platform, integrated into our corporate suite of solutions, a major product innovation for Bottomline. Global Cash Management and Payments Hub are critical pillars of this launch. This technology will empower finance leaders with conversational AI and autonomous governed workflows; transforming treasury workflows, enhancing cash visibility, and driving faster, smarter decision-making.
