- Issue cards with the correct vendor limits, purpose, and expiration settings
- Reassess cards when vendor details, spend amounts, or business needs change
- Manage freezes, closures, and reissues to keep active card records accurate and up to date
- Track receipts and coding within required timelines and follow up on missing submissions
- Reconcile card activity against monthly statements and help clear exceptions before close
- Prepare accrual and coding support for accounting partners
- Maintain clear audit evidence for approvals, issuance, reconciliations, and policy adherence
- Provide monthly reporting on active cards, spend activity, exceptions, and receipt compliance
- Document procedures, update requester guidance, and identify vendors that should move to other payment methods
- Support the transition of card workflows into Workday as part of broader accounts payable changes
Skills
- 3+ years of experience administering a corporate card, purchasing card, or virtual card program
- Hands-on experience with card issuance, limit management, and monthly reconciliation
- Working knowledge of procure-to-pay controls, including approvals, segregation of duties, and audit support
