• Own the organization's financial health, integrity, and long-term sustainability.
  
• Work directly with the CEO, lead 2 direct reports, and partner with 3 other directors across program execution, donor engagement, and talent.
  
• Run accounting end to end — track and account for every peso that comes in and goes out.
  
• Review and approve payroll, which a third-party accounting firm runs today.
  
• File quarterly and annual financial and legal reports with the BIR and SEC, and make sure taxes and mandatory contributions are withheld and paid on time.
  
• Keep certifications current with government agencies (such as DSWD), banks, and partners.

• Strong finance skills and a real commitment to social impact.
  
• Comfort moving between board-level strategy and detailed spreadsheet work.
  
• A builder's mindset — you'll set up systems from scratch and fix what isn't working.
  
• High standards for transparency and integrity, and a drive to get the most impact from every peso.
  
• Experience working remotely with a global team and local communities, and the ability to explain finance clearly to both.
