About the Role

We are looking for a high-caliber Financial Controller / Head of Finance to lead and strengthen the finance and accounting operations of a fast-growing Philippine business group in the real estate services and flexible workspace industry.

This is a critical leadership role for a hands-on finance operator who thrives in building structure, enforcing discipline, improving controls, and driving reporting accuracy across multiple business entities.

If you are the kind of finance leader who values integrity, ownership, operational excellence, and building strong teams, not just preparing reports, we'd like to speak with you.

You will be the key finance operations leader responsible for ensuring that the organization's financial engine runs accurately, efficiently, and with strong governance.

This role goes beyond accounting execution. You will establish discipline, improve systems, enforce controls, and lead a growing finance team through the next stage of scale.

You will oversee accounting, financial reporting, compliance, treasury coordination, and internal controls across multiple entities and subsidiaries.

  • Build a culture of accountability, ownership, integrity, and operational discipline
  • Improve productivity, capability, and execution standards within the team
  • Partner cross-functionally with leadership, operations, HR, and business units

  6. Systems & Continuous Improvement

  • Support ERP / finance systems implementation and process automation initiatives
  • Drive efficiency improvements and scalable finance operating practices

  QUALIFICATIONS

  We are looking for a strong operator, not just a technical accountant.

  1. Certified Public Accountant (CPA)

  3. 5+ years in a leadership role managing finance/accounting teams
  4. Strong experience in
