  • Lead the preparation, monitoring, and management of budgets, forecasts, and financial plans across multiple markets.
  • Ensure strong internal controls, risk management, and corporate governance practices are embedded across the finance organization.
  • Manage and coordinate external and internal audits, liaising with audit firms and country finance teams. Ensure compliance with IFRS, GAAP, and local tax and regulatory requirements in all jurisdictions.
  • Lead initiatives to enhance financial systems, ERP utilization, and reporting processes, driving greater automation, accuracy, and speed.
  • Support and advise business leaders and country finance teams, ensuring alignment of financial goals with operational strategies.
  • Participate in M&A due diligence, financial assessments, and integration projects as needed to support company expansion.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related discipline.
  • Fully qualified CPA, ACCA, or equivalent professional certification.
  • 8+ years of relevant experience, including at least 3 years in Big 4 audit and leadership experience in a regional finance role.

  • Proven experience managing regional finance operations and multi-entity reporting.
  • Expertise in ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite) and strong Excel and analytical skills.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence and explain financial concepts to non-finance stakeholders.
  • High attention to detail, sound judgment, and the ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
  • Why Join Us

  • Competitive compensation that reflects your impact and leadership.
  • Direct access to executive decision-making and strategic influence.
