Finance Manager - Full Set Accounting & Close

About the role

A hands-on, technically strong accounting professional is sought to own the full set of Singapore accounts. The role covers end-to-end accounting operations, financial reporting and statutory compliance, with additional responsibility for internal reporting and treasury management. It suits someone who enjoys deep involvement in bookkeeping, closing, reconciliations and audit readiness rather than a purely strategic finance business partner.

• Perform balance sheet reconciliations and ensure timely resolution of reconciling items.
• Prepare monthly management accounts and supporting schedules, and statutory financial statements under SFRS/IFRS, and support audit queries with clear documentation.
• Ensure compliance with Singapore statutory reporting, prepare and submit GST returns and corporate tax support schedules, coordinate the annual statutory audit and work with external auditors and tax agents.
• Monitor daily cash flow, maintain bank reconciliations, oversee cash positioning and liquidity, support payments and banking compliance, and assist in cash flow forecasting.
• Support internal financial reports, maintain internal controls, identify and resolve accounting discrepancies, and ensure adherence to group accounting policies.
• Drive improvements in accounting processes, reconciliations and close timelines, and strengthen finance operations discipline.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance or a related discipline.
• Professional qualification (ACCA, CPA, CIMA or ACA) strongly preferred or required.
• Minimum 7 years of hands-on accounting experience.
• Strong experience in full-set accounting and financial close, and in GST, corporate tax support and audit processes in Singapore.
• Comfortable in a very hands-on, detail-heavy accounting environment, able to work independently and take ownership.

Required skills

• Solid technical knowledge of SFRS/IFRS.
• Strong Excel skills and familiarity with accounting systems/ERPs.
• High attention to detail, accuracy and discipline in financial reporting.
