In the Payroll & Finance Executive role, you’ll play a hybrid role with a dual focus on regional payroll management and general finance support. You’ll be responsible for ensuring the accuracy of payroll across multiple countries while also supporting our day-to-day accounting operations. From payroll reconciliations and statutory compliance to assisting with accounts payable, receivable, and general ledger functions, you’ll be a key player in keeping our financial engine running smoothly.

We’re looking for someone who’s meticulous with details, comfortable juggling multiple priorities, and thrives in a fast-moving, regional environment.

What you will do:

• Oversee and review monthly payroll processing for employees, ensuring accuracy and timeliness.
• Coordinate with local payroll executives in each country to ensure compliance with statutory requirements.
• Reconcile payroll calculations (salaries, allowances, deductions, reimbursements) before disbursement.
• Verify that all statutory payments and filings are accurate and submitted on time.
• Act as the main point of contact for payroll-related queries escalated by local executives.
• Prepare consolidated payroll reports and summaries for management review.

• Ensure compliance with accounting standards and tax regulations.
• Liaise with auditors, tax agents, bankers, and relevant authorities when needed.

How you will need to be:

• Highly detail-oriented and accurate in your work.
• Proactive with a strong sense of ownership, especially when working across countries.
• Comfortable working independently while also collaborating with multiple teams.
• Tech-savvy and eager to explore automation and smarter ways of working.
• Able to handle sensitive information with professionalism and discretion.

What you need to have:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• Currently pursuing or holding a professional qualification (e.g., ICAEW, ACCA, CPA).
• 2–3 years of hands-on experience in accounting (AP, AR, GL), ideally in a regional or mid-to-large-sized organization.
• Solid understanding of accounting principles.
• High proficiency in Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.

Good to have:

• Experience in technology, SaaS, or startup environments.
• Familiarity with Oracle NetSuite or similar systems.
• Exposure to regional payroll processing and HRIS/HRMS tools.
• Experience with process automation or system migration projects.
• Basic GenAI prompt engineering knowledge.
