Senior Group Accountant

Our client is an established multi-entity industrial group with a regional operating footprint and an ongoing focus on strengthening its finance platform. As the business continues to improve its reporting discipline, governance, and finance processes, they are looking to appoint a hands-on Senior Group Accountant to support the next stage of finance maturity. This is a suitable opportunity for candidates who enjoy both technical group finance work and direct exposure to senior leadership.

Reporting to the CFO, the successful candidate will lead a small finance team and take responsibility for group consolidation, financial reporting, and the books of the Singapore holding entity. The role will require close review of full set accounts, consolidation schedules, entity submissions, intercompany matters, reporting packs, and supporting analysis.
