• Ensure the integrity and completeness of financial data throughout the accounting cycle.
• Prepare and review monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS or applicable accounting standards.
• Ensure compliance with local tax laws, VAT regulations, and statutory reporting requirements.
• Coordinate external audits, provide supporting documentation, and drive timely resolution of audit findings.
• Oversee the preparation and submission of tax returns, VAT filings, and regulatory reports.
• Maintain and continuously update accounting policies and ensure consistent application across the organization.

• Support internal audits and ensure corrective actions are implemented on time.
• Strengthen accounting procedures, workflows, and documentation.
• Ensure appropriate segregation of duties across the finance function.
• Support fraud prevention initiatives and promote a culture of integrity and ethical accounting.
• Lead the annual budgeting process and ensure alignment with strategic objectives.
• Support forecasting, financial planning, and resource allocation.
• Monitor budget performance, investigate variances, and recommend corrective actions.
• Provide financial analysis, management reports, and meaningful explanations to support business decisions.
• Translate complex financial information into clear, actionable insights for both financial and non-financial stakeholders.
• Lead, mentor, and develop the accounting team.
• Allocate responsibilities effectively and establish clear performance expectations.
• Provide technical guidance and training on accounting standards and best practices.
• Promote effective workload management and prioritization.
• Partner with other departments to resolve accounting issues and support operational needs.
• Work closely with Finance leadership and senior management to support strategic decision-making.
• Continuously review accounting processes, systems, and procedures to identify opportunities for improvement.
• Drive initiatives that increase efficiency, accuracy, transparency, and control.
• Support the implementation and adoption of new accounting technologies and systems.
• Reduce unnecessary manual processes through automation and smarter ways of working.
• Contribute to the continuous development and modernization of the Finance function.

What You Bring to the Table:

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• CPA, CMA, or equivalent professional certification is highly preferred.
• 4+ years of accounting experience.
• Strong experience in financial reporting, external audits, statutory compliance, and financial controls.
• Experience working within a structured finance environment and using ERP systems.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including financial modelling, pivot tables, reconciliations, and data analysis.
