Senior Accountant

About The Role

As a Senior Accountant in our Admin department, you will serve as a key member of the finance function, responsible for ensuring the integrity, accuracy, and timeliness of our financial records and reporting. You will oversee core accounting operations, guide month-end and year-end close processes, and support strategic decision-making with insightful financial analysis.

Partnering closely with cross-functional teams, you will help maintain strong internal controls, drive process improvements, and ensure compliance with relevant accounting standards and regulatory requirements.

• Maintain and reconcile general ledger accounts, ensuring correctness, completeness, and alignment with supporting documentation.
• Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, and other core accounting functions, implementing best practices and process improvements.
• Develop, document, and continuously improve accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls to enhance efficiency and reduce risk.
• Support budgeting and forecasting activities by providing historical analysis, variance explanations, and recommendations to management.
• Prepare supporting schedules and documentation for internal and external audits, coordinating closely with auditors to address questions and findings.
• Monitor compliance with local tax and regulatory requirements, assisting with tax filings, statutory reporting, and related documentation as needed.
• Collaborate with the Admin and other departments to ensure accurate coding of expenses, proper cost allocations, and alignment with organizational policies.
• Assist in the implementation, enhancement, and optimization of accounting and ERP systems, including testing, training, and troubleshooting.
• Perform ad hoc financial analysis, reporting, and special projects to support management decisions and organizational initiatives.
• Coach and provide guidance to junior accounting staff, promoting a culture of accuracy, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; professional certification (e.g., CPA, ACCA, CMA, or equivalent) strongly preferred.
• Several years (typically 5+ years) of progressive accounting experience, including prior experience in a senior or lead accounting role.
• Strong knowledge of accounting principles and standards (GAAP and/or IFRS) and familiarity with relevant tax and regulatory requirements.
• Demonstrated experience managing month-end and year-end close processes and preparing financial statements and supporting schedules.
• Proficiency with accounting software and ERP systems, as well as strong Microsoft Excel skills (e.g., pivot tables, lookups, and data analysis).
• Proven ability to analyze complex financial data, identify trends or discrepancies, and present clear, actionable insights to stakeholders.
• Solid understanding of internal controls, accounting policies, and best practices for process documentation and risk mitigation.
• High level of attention to detail, accuracy, and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to work effectively with both finance and non-finance colleagues.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment, exercising sound judgment and discretion.
