Description

We’re looking for a hands-on, forward-thinking General Ledger (GL) Manager to lead our accounting operations and play a key role in building our shared service capabilities. This isn’t a “keep the lights on” role — it’s for someone who loves driving change, leading teams, and improving processes in a fast-moving environment. You’ll oversee our general ledger and consolidation activities while steering finance transformation initiatives such as system migration, process optimisation, and the transition into a shared service model. If you thrive in dynamic settings where you can make things better, faster, and smarter — we’d love to have you on board. Why You’ll Love Working Here? Be part of a finance transformation journey from the ground up. Fast-paced, high-growth environment where ideas move quickly to execution.

Review journal entries, reconciliations, and intercompany transactions. Lead statutory and management reporting cycles, including audit coordination. Finance Transformation & Shared Services Be a key player in transitioning GL and reporting processes into a shared service model. Lead and manage system and process migration projects (ERP and automation tools). Build and implement best-in-class processes and controls that scale with growth. Champion continuous improvement, using data and tech to streamline workflows. Leadership & Collaboration Lead, mentor, and develop a team of accountants and senior analysts. Collaborate closely with FP&A, AP/AR, and business units to resolve issues and deliver insights. Act as a trusted finance partner to management — clear, proactive, and solution-oriented. Financial Analysis & Insights Deliver meaningful financial insights that support decision-making and performance improvement. Identify process bottlenecks and recommend practical, scalable solutions. Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related discipline; professional qualification (ACCA, CPA, CA, or equivalent) preferred. Minimum 7–10 years of progressive accounting experience across multiple countries in Asia, including 3+ years in a managerial role. Proven experience in consolidation across multiple entities and jurisdictions. Strong track record in project management, particularly in process transition, system migration, or shared service setup. Familiarity with major ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite) and consolidation tools. Excellent communication, analytical, and stakeholder management skills. Strong leadership and people development capabilities. Strong analytical skills with a continuous improvement mindset. Resilient, adaptable, and comfortable operating in a fast-changing, high-growth business environment. Fluency in English required; proficiency in other regional languages is a plus.
