About the role

We’re a Singapore marketing agency that’s growing fast, with a team here and overseas. Our accounts are in order, but nobody is really looking at the numbers and telling us what they mean. We want someone who will.

This is a part-time role for an experienced accountant who wants a good side income, direct access to the founder, and the chance to set up a small company’s finance function the way you think it should be done. No office politics, no big finance department, no legacy mess. Just you, the founder, and a company that actually wants to understand its numbers.

What the setup looks like

You work directly with the founder. We pay salaries on the last day of every month. After that, you close the books and send the report by the 10th. Then we do the call. The rest of the month is quiet, maybe a question here and there. Most of the work falls within about 10 days each month, so it fits around a full-time job. If you have a better way to structure it, we’re open.

What you’ll do

• Run payroll every month for the Singapore and overseas team, on time, including CPF
• Close the books each month: reconcile the bank, invoices and expenses
• Put together a simple monthly finance report the founder can read in 10 minutes: profit and loss, cash in the bank, who hasn’t paid us yet, and the few numbers that matter most
• End every report with one recommendation: something we should change and what it’s worth in dollars
• Get on a one-hour call with the founder every month to go through it
• Handle the filings: IRAS, ACRA, AIS and anything else with a deadline. You tell us before it’s due, not after
• Set up the system properly in your first two months: chart of accounts, payroll process, client payment tracker, all documented
• Review our past three years of accounts to establish our profit margin baseline, then help us improve it
• Watch for GST registration timing as we grow and handle it cleanly when it comes

How you’ll be measured

• Clean record: every payroll and filing on time with zero errors
• Report by the 10th, every month
• Recommendations we actually action, and what they turn out to be worth
• Net profit margin against the target we set together after your baseline review

That’s it. Four things, all visible, and the bonuses below are tied straight to them.

You’ll do well here if you

• Have 5 or more years in accounting or finance in Singapore, with ACCA, CA (Singapore) or a degree in accounting
• Have done month-end closing, payroll and statutory filings yourself, not just checked someone else’s work
• Can explain a P&L to someone who isn’t an accountant, without making them feel stupid
• Are comfortable with QuickBooks, which we use now. If you think we should move to Xero or something else, you’ll lead that migration
• Notice things. Unused subscriptions, clients being under-billed, costs creeping up. And you say so

This is not for you if you

• Want to process the numbers and hand them over. The report without the recommendation is half the job
• Need to be told what to look at. There’s no finance team above you setting the agenda
• Treat deadlines as targets. A late filing costs us money and trust, and there’s no one else to catch it
• Can’t get clearance from your current employer for outside work, or aren’t comfortable signing an NDA

No hard feelings either way. Different roles suit different people.

Bonus points

• Experience with service businesses or agencies
• Experience paying an overseas team

What you get

• SGD 1,200 to 1,800 a month depending on experience, reviewed after 6 months
• Annual bonus of up to SGD 3,000: SGD 1,500 for a clean year (every filing and payroll on time with zero errors, every monthly report by the 10th), and SGD 1,500 if we hit our year-end net profit margin target, which we’ll set together after your baseline review
• Savings bonus: 10% of any cost savings or recovered revenue that comes from something you spotted and we actioned, up to SGD 3,000 a year
• Work whenever suits you. We don’t track hours; we care about the outcome
• Build it your way from day one
• A founder who will actually read your report and make decisions from it, so your work means something

How we hire

Quick chat, then a short exercise (45 to 60 minutes) using a sample month of anonymised data, then a chat with the founder. We decide within the week.

How to apply

Email ************* with the subject line: Your Next Finance Manager - [Your Full Name]

• Updated CV/Resume, including your qualification (ACCA, CA (Singapore) or accounting degree).
• Your availability. Confirm your current employer allows outside work, and the days in the month you’d typically be able to work on this.
• Expected monthly fee in SGD.
