• Build and grow cross-functional relationships to work collaboratively within matrix structures.
• Coordinate with the FP&A team to ensure work practices are aligned with group policiesand deliver timely monthly closing.

Your profile:

You are a self-starter who takes ownership and applies your mind rather than waiting to be told what to do.You can navigate ambiguity, identify what needs to be done, and get it done — with quality.You bring strong accounting fundamentals and combine them with a proactive, can-do attitude.

• 5+ years of experience spanning both Accounts Payable and financial accounting / month-end close, ideally in a high-growth or process-oriented environment.

• Strong command of IFRS; working knowledge of local GAAP, VAT, and withholding tax.

• Experience in small and agile teams covering a wide spectrum of tasks; comfortable wearing multiple hats.
• Educational qualification: Graduation in Accounting; CA / post-graduation preferred but not mandatory.

Why This Role?

This is a role for someone who wants breadth, not just depth.

If you thrive in a dynamic environment where no two days are the same and you are recognised for initiative, this is the role for you.
