About this role
Director of Accounting, BroadPeak UAE
BroadPeak is building a shared-services accounting function in Dubai, UAE to run the books for our US, UK, and China companies. This role owns that function end-to-end — delivered through a team across our Pakistan office and India partners, on NetSuite and QuickBooks. You bring order, control, and a clean close across three jurisdictions.
About BroadPeak
BroadPeak Investment Group (BIG) is an operator-led private investment firm and family office partnering with exceptional founder-led and family-owned businesses globally. We don't just write checks — we build alongside you, leveraging the same entrepreneurial spirit that built our own companies. Founded by Tariq Farid, BIG's portfolio spans a large franchise system (Edible®), Roti Modern Mediterranean, and brands across consumer, restaurant, wellness, technology, supply chain, and mobility, operating across the US, UK, and China. This role supports companies across that portfolio.
The Role
You own the full accounting cycle across our US, UK, and China entities — month-end close, general ledger, accounts payable and receivable, intercompany, reconciliations, reporting, and controls — on NetSuite and QuickBooks. You hire and lead a UAE team and direct scaled accounting delivery across our Pakistan office and India partners. You are the reliable, single line of accountability to US finance.
What We're Looking For
- Hands-on NetSuite and QuickBooks — you've run close cycles in both, not just reviewed the output.
- Multi-entity, multi-currency close ownership across jurisdictions.
- A qualified accountant — CPA, ACCA, CA, or equivalent.
- UAE team-building experience — you've hired and managed a team in Dubai / the UAE. (Required.)
- Distributed leadership — you've managed offshore accounting teams.
- 8–12+ years, including several leading accounting teams with close ownership.
- On-site in Dubai, UAE, working hours overlapping the US East Coast morning (approximately 1:00–10:00 PM UAE time).
Compensation
Competitive, tax-free salary. Statutory entitlements are provided in line with UAE Labor Law, and the full package is finalized at the offer stage. This is a role for someone who wants to build a function properly; strong performance is recognized and rewarded as the team and the business grow.
Location: On-site at our new Dubai, UAE office (opening August 2026). Working hours overlap the US East Coast morning — approximately 1:00–10:00 PM UAE time.
