Accountant

Accountant

As an Accountant, you will be the primary accountant for a defined cluster of entities. You will own the month-end close, maintain the general ledger, reconcile key balance sheet accounts, and support day-to-day finance operations for your entities. This is a hands-on role that requires strong attention to detail, good accounting discipline, and the ability to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously.

You will work closely with the FC&O Senior Manager and the wider finance team, and be the first point of contact for finance queries relating to your entities.

• Support accounts receivable by tracking outstanding invoices, following up on overdue balances, and reconciling AR ledgers

• Reconcile supplier statements and resolve any vendor disputes or discrepancies

• Ensure all AP and AR transactions are accurately recorded and aged items are flagged to the FC&O Senior Manager

4. Bank Reconciliations & Treasury Support

• Perform monthly bank reconciliations for all bank accounts within your entity cluster

• Ensure all bank transactions are posted accurately and reconciling items are cleared promptly

• Support the FP&A team with cash balance data and banking information as required

5. Payroll Accounting

• Reconcile payroll-related balance sheet accounts including statutory liabilities, CPF/EPF/Pension contributions, and accrued salaries

6. Tax & Statutory Support

• Prepare supporting schedules and transaction data for tax filings across your entities

• Support the preparation of statutory accounts by providing accurate trial balances, schedules, and reconciliations

• Assist with audit queries by providing schedules, workpapers, and supporting documentation for your entities

• Ensure your entities remain compliant with local filing deadlines — flag upcoming obligations to the FC&O Senior Manager in advance

7. Day-to-Day Finance Operations

• Act as the first point of contact for finance queries relating to your assigned entities from internal stakeholders, suppliers, and clients

• Respond to and resolve finance queries promptly including invoice queries, payment status, and reconciliation questions
