Job Description

We are looking for a Finance Manager to manage a team of two (1 Senior C 1 Junior).

You will be inheriting a department with established SOPs, custom-built trackers, and a reporting line directly to the CEO. Your job is to ensure the team maintains the high standards of accuracy, automation, and strategic insight that have been the foundation of our success.

Leadership C Strategic Oversight

  • Team Management: Lead, mentor, and review the work of a Senior and Junior staff member. You are responsible for their output, professional growth, and the overall efficiency of the finance function.
  • Direct CEO Support: Serve as the strategic right-hand to the CEO on cash flow planning, fund management, and high-level operational decision-making.
  • Budgets Gatekeeper: Own and evolve the Media Buy Trackers that monitor ~85% of company profit margins. You are the final eyes on the data that drives the business.
  • MCA C Regulatory Lead: Spearhead due diligence for future acquisition projects. Manage our compliance and all high-level liaisons with auditors, secretary and tax agents.

The Day-to-Day Ownership

  • Multi-Entity Control: Oversee the full-spectrum accounting for 7 entities across MY C SG, ensuring the team handles invoicing, payments, and reconciliations with total precision.
  • Automation Mastery: Continue the push for AI adoption for the finance department by optimizing e-invoicing, self-billing, and automated reporting tools.

The Person We’re Looking For

  • The "Owner-Leader": You take immense pride in your work and expect the same from your team. You aren't a micromanager, but you have the audit-hardened "eyes" to spot a red flag instantly.
  • Technical Rigor: You likely rose quickly through the ranks of a top-tier audit firm and transitioned into a role where you had to figure things out for yourself.
  • Independent Spirit: You thrive when given total autonomy. You don’t wait for a "to-do" list; you see a gap in the process and you close it.
