Live EOFY webinar for Australian finance teams — save the date 📅

There's a reason June feels heavier every year, and it's not the invoice volume.

It's that the gaps in your AP process only show up when the pressure's on. The invoices you can't find. The approvers who've gone quiet. The statement rec you keep meaning to get to.

By the time you're three days from cut-off, it's too late to fix the process. You can only survive it.

So we're hosting a live session on what finance teams running modern AP do differently, the ones who close FY26 on time, and start FY27 already ahead.

🗓️ Tuesday 9 June, 11 am AEST, 45 mins

🎤 Hosted by: Gary Mallett and Luis Covarrubia

Hiring more AP staff doesn't fix inefficiency — it just spreads it across more desks. 📋➡️📋📋

In hospitality, where turnover is high and margins are tight, every hiring cycle eats into profit. Salary, recruitment fees, training… and next peak season? You do it all again. 🔄

Smart finance leaders are choosing a different path:

⚡ Invoices captured, coded & matched automatically
⏱️ Supplier statements reconciled in minutes, not hours
📊 80% less time per invoice | 25% lower costs vs hiring

Same team. More capacity. Better margins.

Fix the process, not the headcount. 🚀

Hospitality peak season incoming 🚨

Graham Dyer from AAB has seen first-hand what happens when hospitality businesses hit their busiest period without the right processes in place — invoices pile up, approvals stall, and the finance team spends their time firefighting instead of adding real value. ⚡

The good news? It doesn't have to be that way.

Watch Graham share how Lightyear helped his hospitality clients stay in control when it matters most.
