About
Accounts Payable are responsible for processing timely and accurate payments to suppliers, consultants and individuals, in a multitude of currencies, to enable the College to carry out its world-class teaching and research. The department ensures compliance to financial policies and procedures relating to the purchase to pay cycle whilst ensuring efficient payment.
The department uses sophisticated electronic invoicing technology, through our partner Tungsten. This enables the team to process a growing volume of invoices whilst maintaining high standards.
Paper invoice eradication
As part of the College's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, Imperial College London is no longer accepting paper invoices posted to the College as of 1st November 2023. Please see the Paper invoicing eradication letter for a copy of the notification sent to suppliers.
Accounts Payable are currently working to achieve 100% e-invoicing. To find out more about how this works navigate to E-Invoicing at Imperial College London.
