• End-to-End Ledger Management: Oversee the full accounting cycle, ensuring precise execution of AP and AR processes, including automated payment disbursements and collections.

• Treasury & Cash Management: Monitor daily cash positions, manage liquidity, and optimize payment timing to maintain healthy working capital across our global jurisdictions.

• Tax & Regulatory Compliance: Ensure strict adherence to local and international regulations (VAT/GST/Sales Tax); manage tax filings, statutory reporting, and serve as a key point of contact for external audits.

• Automation & AI Integration: Identify and execute opportunities to automate manual accounting tasks using AI tools (e.g., Gemini, Python, n8n, or similar) to increase efficiency and data quality.

• Process Excellence: Maintain and refine the internal control environment for payments and financial data, ensuring all transactions meet corporate and legal standards.

Who You Are

You are an experienced accountant with a hands‑on mindset and a passion for building scalable financial processes. You bring structure to complex workflows and take pride in driving operational excellence through technology. You are analytical, detail-oriented, and a strong collaborator who can align accounting functions with broader business objectives.

Our Requirements Include

• Experience: 3+ years of professional experience, ideally gained within a Big 4 accounting firm (EY, Deloitte, KPMG, or PwC).

• Education: Qualified accountant (ACCA or equivalent), or an experienced professional with deep expertise in accounting processes.

• Technical Skills: Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups, and data analysis; experience using NetSuite ERP or similar financial systems is highly preferred.

• AI & Automation: Proficiency or strong interest in AI tools and technologies (such as Gemini, Cursor, Python, n8n, or similar) is a strong advantage, particularly for driving automation and process efficiency.
