About the role

The Finance Executive is at the heart of the company's finance operations — keeping the engine running smoothly across a growing, international technology and healthcare group. This is a hands‑on role with real responsibility from day one: you'll work directly with leadership and stakeholders across the business, see the impact of your work immediately, and have the space to improve how things are done — not just process transactions.

If you're someone who takes pride in accuracy, enjoys working across a variety of finance tasks, and wants to be part of a lean, collaborative team where your contribution genuinely matters, this is the role for you.

Key responsibilities

• Process and meticulously review vendor invoices to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with company policies and procedures.
• Execute and oversee payment processes to vendors, utilising various methods such as cheques, GIRO, wire transfers, etc.
• Maintain updated and accurate vendor records, ensuring all information is current and accessible as needed.
• Support month‑end closing activities, including accruals, reconciliations, and reporting, including year‑end closing and audit processes.
• Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders to promptly resolve inquiries related to invoices and payments.
• Conduct thorough analysis of accounts payable aging reports, identifying and addressing outstanding balances proactively.
• Contribute to the implementation of process enhancements aimed at streamlining accounts payable operations and improving overall efficiency.
• Assist and support financial and certification audits.
• Stay abreast of relevant accounting regulations and best practices, ensuring compliance and driving continuous improvement initiatives.
• Ensure financial processes and control systems are in place.

About you

• Diploma in Accounting, Finance, or professional qualification in a similar or related field.
• At least 2 years of hands‑on accounting experience, ideally in a small to mid‑size company, in‑house finance team, or audit firm.
• Working knowledge of accounts payable processes, month‑end closing procedures, and general accounting principles.
• Familiarity with SFRS and basic compliance requirements.
• Detail‑oriented with strong organisational, problem‑solving, and communication skills.
• Clear understanding of confidentiality requirements and PDPA obligations.
• Experience with Xero, QuickBooks, SalesForce, or SharePoint is an advantage.
• Comfortable using AI and productivity tools (e.g. Co‑Pilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to support day‑to‑day work.
