In this hands-on role, you will be the driving force behind accurate financial reporting, ensuring that all numbers seamlessly feed into the broader group consolidation.

• Financial Reporting Leadership: Own and deliver comprehensive monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports for the subsidiary, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with regulatory standards.
• Budgeting and Forecasting: Develop, manage, and monitor the annual budget and financial forecasts, aligning them with the subsidiary’s strategic objectives while providing actionable insights to leadership.
• Accounting Oversight: Review accounting entries, reconciliations, and closing activities to maintain the integrity of financial data, ensuring adherence to accounting principles and internal policies.
• Financial Analysis and Variance Reporting: Conduct in-depth financial analysis to identify trends, variances, and opportunities, delivering clear and concise reports to senior leadership to support data-driven decision-making.
• Holding Company Collaboration: Act as a trusted partner to the holding company by providing accurate consolidation inputs, supporting audit requirements, and ensuring seamless integration of subsidiary financials into the group’s financial statements.
• Internal Controls and Governance: Strengthen internal controls, financial governance, and compliance frameworks to mitigate risks and enhance operational efficiency across the subsidiary.

Qualifications and Experience

To excel in this role, you will bring a robust background in financial reporting and budgeting, coupled with a deep understanding of accounting principles. The ideal candidate will possess the following:

• Financial Expertise: Proven experience in financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting, with a track record of delivering high-quality financial insights in a complex organizational structure.
• Accounting Proficiency: Strong accounting knowledge and the willingness to engage at a detailed level, ensuring the accuracy of financial records and compliance with regulatory standards.
• Multi-Entity Experience: Prior experience within a holding company or multi-entity structure is highly desirable, as it demonstrates your ability to navigate the complexities of group financial consolidation.
• Professional Certification: Professional certifications such as SOCPA, CMA, CPA, or ACCA are preferred and will be considered a significant advantage.

If you are a proactive financial leader who thrives in a hands-on environment and is committed to driving financial excellence, we invite you to apply for this pivotal role in our organization.
