[Hiring] Financial Control & Operations Accountant @Veremark

Role Description

As a Financial Control & Operations Accountant, you will be the primary accountant for a defined cluster of entities. You will own the month-end close, maintain the general ledger, reconcile key balance sheet accounts, and support day-to-day finance operations for your entities. This is a hands-on role that requires strong attention to detail, good accounting discipline, and the ability to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously.

Key Responsibilities

• Month-End Close
  • Prepare and post journal entries for your assigned entities as part of the monthly close cycle — including accruals, prepayments, depreciation, and adjustments.
  • Complete balance sheet reconciliations for all key accounts within your entity cluster — resolving reconciling items promptly and escalating where needed.
  • Ensure completeness of revenue and cost recognition entries in line with Veremark's accounting policies.
  • Support the FC&O Senior Manager in delivering the close pack within 10 working days of month end.
• General Ledger & Intercompany

  • Process and reconcile intercompany transactions and recharges across entities within your cluster.
  • Perform regular intercompany reconciliations and resolve differences in a timely manner.
  • Support the group consolidation process by ensuring your entity data is accurate and submitted on time.
• Accounts Payable & Receivable
  • Process vendor invoices and coordinate payment runs for your assigned entities — ensuring approvals are in place before payment.
  • Support accounts receivable by tracking outstanding invoices, following up on overdue balances, and reconciling AR ledgers.
  • Reconcile supplier statements and resolve any vendor disputes or discrepancies.
  • Ensure all AP and AR transactions are accurately recorded and aged items are flagged to the FC&O Senior Manager.
• Bank Reconciliations & Treasury Support
  • Perform monthly bank reconciliations for all bank accounts within your entity cluster.
  • Ensure all bank transactions are posted accurately and reconciling items are cleared promptly.
  • Support the FP&A team with cash balance data and banking information as required.
• Payroll Accounting
  • Post payroll journals for your assigned entities and ensure salary costs are correctly allocated to the right cost centres.
  • Reconcile payroll-related balance sheet accounts including statutory liabilities, CPF/EPF/Pension contributions, and accrued salaries.
• Tax & Statutory Support
  • Prepare supporting schedules and transaction data for tax filings across your entities.
  • Support the preparation of statutory accounts by providing accurate trial balances, schedules, and reconciliations.
  • Assist with audit queries by providing schedules, workpapers, and supporting documentation for your entities.
  • Ensure your entities remain compliant with local filing deadlines — flag upcoming obligations to the FC&O Senior Manager in advance.
• Day-to-Day Finance Operations
  • Act as the first point of contact for finance queries relating to your assigned entities from internal stakeholders, suppliers, and clients.
  • Respond to and resolve finance queries promptly including invoice queries, payment status, and reconciliation questions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Sales, Operations, Customer Success, HR) on finance-related matters for your entities.
  • Support the FC&O Senior Manager and VP Finance with ad hoc requests, reporting, and finance projects as required.
