Perform monthly, quarterly and year-end closing of accounts across all private entities

Prepare full sets of financial statements and management accounts for each entity

Manage the year-end statutory audit process end-to-end — liaise directly with external auditors, prepare audit schedules and supporting documentation, and resolve audit queries

Track and maintain a consolidated schedule of all personal loan obligations and other debt facilities

Act as the day-to-day coordination point between the Group CEO and private bankers/financial institutions — advisory on restructuring, refinancing and cost of funds is provided by the private bankers; this role coordinates, executes, and follows through on agreed actions

Liaise with banks and financial institutions on personal credit facilities, margin accounts, and related administrative matters

Prepare periodic personal cash flow and debt/exposure summaries for the Group CEO's review

Compile and provide private bankers with the information and data they need to formulate advisory recommendations

Key Attributes

Trustworthy and discreet — this is a close, high-trust personal appointment
