Job description

ROLE OVERVIEW

We are hiring two experienced Managers, Finance & Accounts to run day-to-day accounting for our international subsidiaries. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role. You will make sure every transaction is recorded accurately, bank and intercompany reconciliations are completed on time, receivables and payables stay under control, and treasury, tax, statutory compliance, and reporting are delivered accurately and on schedule.

The role suits someone detail-oriented, comfortable switching between entities, currencies, and time zones, and who takes ownership of the numbers from entry to final report.

We also expect you to be AI-enabled. You should already use tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar in your daily work to reduce manual effort, analyze accounting data, automate repetitive tasks, speed up reconciliations and prepare reports, and you should keep looking for smarter ways to work.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Month-end close: Own the month-end close across all entities, to an agreed timetable.
• Bank reconciliations: Complete monthly bank reconciliations, receipts and payments for every subsidiary, and investigate and clear every discrepancy.
• Intercompany & FX: Perform intercompany reconciliations and eliminations, and foreign currency revaluation.
• Journals: Prepare accruals, prepayments, and month-end journals with supporting schedules.
• AR & AP: Manage AR and AP aging, the vendor master, and related dashboards. Follow up on overdue balances and calculate provisions for doubtful debts.
• Supply chain payments: Process and control payments to vendors, factories, and logistics providers across the supply chain.
• Treasury: Monitor cash positions across currencies and bank accounts, and prepare cash flow forecasts.
• Controls & commissions: Maintain credit card control sheets and validate sales commissions.
• Distributions: Record distribution and negative distribution transactions accurately.
• Indirect & withholding tax: Make sure VAT, GST, sales tax, and withholding tax are calculated, filed, and paid on time in each jurisdiction.
• Statutory & audit: Support statutory compliance and external audits for each subsidiary, and prepare audit schedules and supporting documents.
• Advisors: Work with external tax advisors and auditors in each region.
• Fixed assets: Classify spending as capex or opex, maintain the fixed asset register, and calculate depreciation.
• Financial reporting: Prepare monthly management reports and entity-level financial statements under IFRS and US GAAP as required.
• Dashboards: Build and maintain dashboards that give management a clear view of cash, receivables, payables, and the close status.
• Team leadership: Guide junior accountants, assign and track tasks, review their work, and provide cover during absences.
• Internal controls: Strengthen internal controls and document processes (SOPs) for each entity.
• AI & automation: Use AI tools and automation to shorten the close, reduce manual entries, and improve accuracy.

REQUIREMENTS

• Education: Master's degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration. ACCA, CA, CPA, or an equivalent qualification is preferred.
• Experience: 8+ years of progressive accounting experience in a multi-entity, multi-currency international business.
• Technical knowledge: Strong command of IFRS and US GAAP, internal controls, and international indirect and withholding taxes (VAT, GST, sales tax, withholding tax).
• Systems: Hands-on ERP experience and advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills (pivot tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, macros).
• Leadership: Experience leading or guiding a team of accountants.
• AI tools: Practical, regular use of Claude, ChatGPT, or similar tools for reconciliations, reporting, data analysis, and repetitive tasks.
• Communication: Confident, clear written and spoken English, and the ability to work with teams across time zones.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Market-competitive salary in USD
• EOBI and Provident Fund
• Punctuality bonus
• Ownership of accounting operations across multiple subsidiaries and regions for a global brand present in 80+ countries
• Leadership opportunity to guide and develop a growing accounts team
