We are seeking an ambitious, control-minded Finance Manager with at least 4 years of experience in practice (public accounting / audit) to lead our finance function.

In this role, you will oversee a dedicated finance operational team, design and enforce bulletproof internal controls, and establish end-to-end reconciliation workflows between our payroll, client invoicing, and bank accounts. You will be responsible for ensuring that every dollar processed through our invoicing and payroll system is accurately billed, collected, and accounted for, while driving monthly management reporting and statutory compliance.

Key Responsibilities

1. Leadership & Team Oversight

Manage, mentor, and supervise the team.
Establish clear key performance indicators (KPIs) and operational workflows for payroll turnaround, invoicing accuracy, and reconciliation deadlines.
Enforce strict segregation of duties to establish internal controls.

2. Financial Controls & Reconciliations

Establish and monitor a Payroll-to-Invoicing Clearing Account framework to ensure 100% of gross payroll, employer taxes, benefits, and service fees are billed out and reconciled to zero monthly.

Daily/weekly bank reconciliations across multi-currency accounts.
Accounts Receivable aging and client payment matching.
Payroll summary reports vs. bank disbursement files.
Statutory tax and pension liability clearing accounts.
Implement dual-authorization controls for client invoicing, vendor payments, and client payout releases.

3. Payroll & Billing Governance

Serve as the final escalation point for complex gross-to-net calculations, tax withholdings, and billing queries.
Authorize final client invoice packages and approve outgoing bank payment files for payroll execution.
Ensure database administrators and non-finance roles have zero operational access to financial general ledgers or bank release tools.

4. Financial Reporting, Tax & Audit Management

Prepare accurate monthly management accounts, P&L statements, balance sheet reconciliations, and cash flow forecasts.
Utilize public practice audit experience to establish an audit-ready environment, managing external audit relationships and tax compliance across all operating companies.
