Our portfolio spans ASEAN and global clients across multiple industries, where we’ve successfully driven large-scale automation programmes, next-gen application modernisation, and enterprise AI initiatives. Recognized as one of Singapore’s 100 Fastest Growing Companies 2024 (Straits Times & Statista) and High-Growth Companies Asia-Pacific 2024 (Financial Times & Statista), we are proud of our track record in building transformation journeys that last.

We partner with leading platforms and ecosystems including ServiceNow, UiPath, OutSystems, Salesforce, Microsoft, AWS, and more — and continue to invest in Centres of Excellence, enablement programs, and Citizen Developer initiatives to accelerate innovation and deliver high-impact digital experiences.

As our Finance Manager, you will play a critical role in shaping the financial health of the business, supporting our growth journey, and enabling data-driven decision-making across the company.

We believe that technology creates space for people to focus on what matters most — strategic thinking, innovation, and human connection. You’ll help steer our financial strategy to ensure that our ambitions are underpinned by sound financial practices and insights.

What You’ll Do

The key responsibilities for this role are outlined below. However, they may evolve as the business grows and transforms:

• Lead the day-to-day finance operations, including accounts payable/receivable, general ledger, payroll, and cash management
• Prepare and review accurate financial statements, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and cash flow reports.
• Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes to support strategic objectives.
• Ensure compliance with all statutory and regulatory requirements, including tax filings, GST submissions, and audits.
• Perform variance analysis and provide actionable recommendations to improve financial performance and efficiency.
• Drive the month-end and year-end closing process, ensuring timely and accurate reporting.
• Manage relationships with external auditors, tax advisors, banks, and other financial partners.
• Analyse financial data and trends to support executive decision-making and business planning.
• Monitor cash flow, working capital, and funding requirements to ensure sustainability and resilience as we scale.

What You’ll Bring

• 5–10 years of experience in finance or accounting roles, preferably in dynamic or fast-growing organisations.
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline; CPA or equivalent professional qualification is preferred.
• Strong commercial acumen with the ability to balance detail orientation and big-picture thinking.
• Confident communicator with the ability to collaborate effectively across all levels of the organisation.
• Proactive and adaptable mindset, comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving improvements.
• A commitment to innovation and continuous improvement in financial processes and reporting.
• Experience working independently, with a hands-on approach to solving complex financial challenges.
• Familiarity with Xero or similar cloud-based accounting systems will be an advantage.

At SimplifyNext, we’re committed to building a team of curious, driven, and forward-thinking individuals who care deeply about creating meaningful impact through technology. If you’re excited by the opportunity to grow, collaborate, and shape the future of digital transformation across the region, we’d be happy to hear from you.
