About Us

BJAK is Southeast Asia’s largest digital insurance platform, headquartered in Malaysia with operations in Thailand, Taiwan, and Japan. Through Bjak.com, we help millions of users access affordable and comprehensive financial protection by simplifying complex financial services through technology.

We’re lean, ambitious, and solving meaningful problems at scale. Our investments in AI, automation, and digital infrastructure power our mission to make financial services faster, smarter, and more accessible across the region. If you’re excited to work closely with leadership, build operational clarity, and shape financial strategy across multiple markets, we’d love to meet you.

About the Role

We are seeking a Financial Controller to lead BJAK’s regional finance function and drive financial excellence across our fast-growing business. This is a strategic and hands‑on leadership role responsible for ensuring financial health, governance, and scalability across multiple markets. You will partner closely with the leadership team to guide financial strategy, strengthen controls, manage reporting and audits, and enable data‑driven decisions that support our rapid growth.

You will be expected to bring strong technical expertise, regional experience, and the leadership maturity to build high‑performing finance teams and systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee financial reporting, budgeting, planning, and compliance across all regional entities, ensuring alignment with both corporate and local regulatory standards.
  • Consolidate and analyze financial results for monthly, quarterly, and annual reviews. Provide actionable insights to leadership to drive growth, profitability, and operational efficiency.
  • 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.
  • Deep knowledge of IFRS, GAAP, tax, and regulatory frameworks across multiple markets.
  • 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.
  • Fast-track career growth in a rapidly scaling fintech platform.
  • A high‑ownership, no‑politics culture that values clarity, speed, and accountability.
  • The opportunity to shape meaningful outcomes and build the finance backbone of a high‑growth regional business powered by AI.
