About the Role
We are looking for a resilient, self-driven Finance Manager with a strong background in external audit to support the Group's financial reporting, compliance, and accounting operations across Singapore and overseas entities.
The ideal candidate will have 4–5 years of audit experience, with a solid understanding of financial reporting standards, internal controls, financial statements, and audit procedures. Candidates with a combination of audit and accounting experience are also welcome, preferably those who have progressed to an Assistant Manager level.
Working closely with the CFO, Financial Controller, Global Revenue Controller, Global Cost Controller, and People Operations, you will play an important role in ensuring the accuracy, integrity, and compliance of the Group's financial records and reporting.
While strong audit experience is essential, we recognise that candidates may not have hands-on experience in every area of operational accounting, taxation, or group consolidation. We are open to developing the right candidate who demonstrates strong accounting fundamentals, a proactive mindset, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.

Resilience and Composure
You can manage pressure, competing priorities, and overlapping deadlines while maintaining accuracy and staying organised.
Independence and Resourcefulness
You take initiative, investigate issues, and find solutions without relying on constant supervision.
Commitment and Ownership
You take responsibility for your work, follow through on deliverables, and understand the importance of accuracy and accountability.
Learning Agility
You are willing to research unfamiliar requirements, learn new systems, and continuously develop your technical knowledge.
Stakeholder Management
You can communicate effectively and coordinate with different departments, finance teams, auditors, and external advisers to get things done.
