Descrição da oferta de emprego

Hello Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MOMO) is a social and dating technology company. Our Singapore Regional Headquarters supports a team of approximately 50 people and serves as the base for the group's international operations across Asia and the Middle East. We are looking for an Accountant to join our Singapore finance team and own the full set of accounts for a portfolio of the group's Singapore and overseas entities.

About the Role

You will join a finance team reporting to the Regional Director, working closely with Hello Group's finance and tax teams at our Beijing headquarters. Each accountant owns a portfolio of group entities from month-end close through to audit and tax filing, so this is hands‑on work with real responsibility from the start. We are a Nasdaq-listed company, but our Singapore office runs like a start‑up. We operate deliberately lean, scopes are not rigidly bounded, and everyone carries a share of the operational load. The person who succeeds here will move comfortably between closing the books and answering auditors' queries in the morning, then processing payments or helping a business unit with a finance question in the afternoon, and will treat neither as beneath them.

We also expect this person to use modern AI and automation tools to compress the routine parts of the job. Reconciliations, settlement files and recurring reports can increasingly be automated, and we would rather hire someone who reclaims that time for higher‑value work than someone who absorbs it manually.

Please note that our accounting system is a proprietary platform built in-house on Oracle and customised for our operations. It does not resemble conventional systems such as Xero, QuickBooks or SAP, and its interface is entirely in Chinese. Proficiency in Chinese and the ability to adapt quickly to an unfamiliar system are therefore critical for success in this role.

Key Responsibilities

• Financial Reporting & Close
  • Maintain the full set of accounts for an assigned portfolio of Singapore and overseas group entities in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
  • Deliver month-end closing on schedule, including journal entries, accruals, and bank and balance sheet reconciliations
  • Prepare monthly reporting for Beijing headquarters, including revenue and intercompany reporting, and support revenue recognition and partner settlement processes with the business and tech teams
  • Coordinate intercompany transactions, service fee charges and reconciliations across group entities
• Audit, Tax & Statutory Compliance
  • Prepare annual financial statements and supporting schedules, and manage the statutory audit for your entities through to signing and filing with ACRA
  • Prepare and file GST (quarterly), withholding tax and corporate income tax returns, working with our tax agents and the tax team at Beijing headquarters
  • Plan ahead of peak periods so that audits and statutory filings are completed by their original deadlines
  • Liaise with auditors, tax agents, corporate secretaries, banks, payment partners and local authorities, including KYC requests and statutory surveys
• Treasury & Business Support
  • Prepare and schedule vendor and intercompany payments through our banking platforms, and review expense claims and purchase requests against company policy
  • Monitor bank balances and arrange intercompany settlements and funding as required
  • Support forecasting and budgeting, and respond to finance queries from business units
  • Identify and implement process improvements, and perform other ad hoc finance duties as assigned

Reports to: Regional Director

Work arrangement: Hybrid - 3 days in office, 2 days from home

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance. An ACCA, CA (Singapore) or CPA qualification, completed or in progress, is an advantage
• At least 3 years of hands‑on experience handling full sets of accounts, including month‑end close. Experience with GST filing and statutory audits for Singapore companies is preferred
• Good working knowledge of IFRS or SFRS(I), Singapore GST and corporate tax
• Experience across multiple entities, or in a regional internet or technology company, is an advantage
• Strong Excel skills, particularly formulas and pivot tables. Experience using AI or automation tools to streamline accounting work is an advantage
• Organised and detail‑oriented, able to manage deadlines across several entities and to work independently in a lean team
• Willingness to learn a proprietary system that differs from standard commercial accounting software
• Strong command of both English and Chinese (written and spoken) is mandatory, as the accounting system and many communications with Beijing headquarters are in Chinese
