About SoftCo

SoftCo is an AI- native Procure-to-Pay (P2P) and Accounts Payable (AP) automation company built for complex organisations. In a market full of rigid templates and “plug-and-play” promises, our approach is different. We tailor automation around the organisation, not the organisation around the software.

For over 35 years, we’ve helped finance teams move from reactive, manual processes to controlled, scalable and strategic P2P operations. Our AI-native platform strengthens accuracy, visibility and insight, but it’s our delivery expertise that ensures it works in the real world.

• 1M+ users worldwide

• Trusted by organisations including Volkswagen, Patagonia, Primark, Logitech and all 80 departments of the Finnish Government

• Global reach with offices in the US, Finland, UK, Kosovo and Ireland

• A reputation for owning where precision engineering meets long-term partnership

Join us as Business Consultant and play a key role in strengthening application security across our engineering practices, helping ensure our platform remains secure, resilient, and trusted as we continue to scale globally.
