URGENT HIRING | Assistant Manager Global Payroll & Finance

We are looking for a qualified and experienced professional to join our team!

Key Requirements:

• CA Qualified is mandatory
• Immediate joiners preferred
• 5-day working week (Monday to Friday)
• Experience in global payroll finance, statutory compliance, GL reconciliation, budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting will be an advantage.

Role & responsibilities

• Local CPA / Finance Partner Coordination: Serve as the primary point of contact for in-country CPAs and local finance partners handling statutory payroll compliance in each operating country; maintain a working relationship and a clear escalation path with each.
• Statutory Compliance Oversight: Track statutory compliance status across all countries via confirmations and evidence (deposit proofs, filing acknowledgements) submitted by local CPAs; maintain a global compliance calendar/tracker and elevate delays or gaps.
• Global Payroll Cost Consolidation & GL Reconciliation: Consolidate payroll costs reported by local CPAs/country finance teams into group books; perform group-level payroll GL reconciliation and resolve cross-entity variances.
• Payroll Funding & Disbursement: Coordinate with Treasury/Finance and local CPAs to ensure funds reach each country in time for its payroll run; manage cross-border remittance logistics and timing.
• Vendor & Invoice Reconciliation: Validate invoices from payroll vendors/providers and local CPA firms against payroll actually processed; resolve billing discrepancies.
• Budgeting & Forecasting: Consolidate country-level payroll budgets and forecasts submitted by local finance partners into a single global view; analyze and report variances to finance leadership.
• Global Financial Reporting: Prepare consolidated payroll cost MIS and dashboards across all countries for finance and HR leadership review.
• Audit Support (Group-Level): Coordinate group-level statutory, internal and external audits; liaise between auditors and local CPAs to gather country-specific evidence and consolidate audit responses.
• Internal Controls & Governance: Design and maintain a group-level financial controls framework for payroll; ensure local CPAs and finance partners operate within it; conduct periodic control reviews.
• Process Standardization: Drive consistency in payroll finance processes, templates and reporting formats across countries, despite each using a different local CPA/finance partner.

Preferred candidate profile

• Qualified Chartered Accountant (CA) - mandatory
• 2-4 years of post-qualification experience in financial operations, group consolidation, or multi-entity finance coordination; experience overseeing or working with external CPAs/local finance partners across jurisdictions strongly preferred.
• Solid understanding of group GL consolidation, financial controls, and audit processes; working familiarity with statutory payroll compliance concepts (Social Security and international equivalents) sufficient to review and challenge local CPA output, without needing to file it personally.
• Proficiency in Excel and experience with ERP/accounting systems (SAP, Oracle Financials, or similar) and payroll/HRIS platforms.
• Strong stakeholder management skills - able to coordinate confidently with external CPA firms and finance partners across multiple countries and time zones.
• Strong reconciliation, analytical and financial-controls mindset.
• High degree of accuracy, confidentiality and integrity in handling payroll and financial data.
