Rollup: Deleted index but cannot stop/delete job

[tg295 (Theo Gardner)]

I have a rollup job in state "Indexing". I cannot stop nor delete the job - stopping is not an option and deleting brings up the following error:

400: Bad Request. Could not delete job [index-blah] because indexer state is [INDEXING]. Job must be [STOPPED] before deletion.

It is rolling up a very large index and i suspect will be in state "Indexing" for a while longer - is there a way I can stop and thus delete the job without waiting for the state to change?

I also closed the destination rollup index attached to the job, in an effort to stop the job, however it seems ES has automatically reopened the index.

Thanks

Edit: To clarify I am currently managing things in the kibana UI

Is it showing up in here Task management API | Elasticsearch Reference [7.11] | Elastic?

I'm not sure because I do not know the task id, but there are 6 different tasks running with the action 'xpack/rollup/job[c]':

There are only two rollup jobs running currently - one being the job in discussion, so I'm not sure if these tasks relate to different jobs or the jobs have been split up into multiple tasks?

Any ideas?
