We are seeking the detail-obsessed, numbers-crunching Accountant of our dreams to join our growing business. In this role, you will hold the keys to our financial health across two fast-moving entities (UAE and Singapore). Your mission is simple but crucial: improve financial accuracy, drive down days to pay, and increase overall cash collected across the group.
Reporting directly to our Chief of Staff with monthly oversight from our fractional CFO, you will own the day-to-day accounts support. From multi-currency bank reconciliations and month-end manual journals to chasing up accounts receivable, you’ll be the gatekeeper of our general bookkeeping. Our finance function is currently in transition, so you should be highly comfortable with ambiguity and eager to help the role evolve over your first 12 months.
To you, Xero is your best friend, and cutting corners on reconciliations is out of the question. While you are highly analytical and deeply process-disciplined, you also have a knack for human connection. You are comfortable jumping onto email, WhatsApp, or the phone to have direct, professional collections conversations that keep cash flowing without ever damaging client relationships.
Note - this position is remote, but it requires collaboration with other team members. Applicants residing in time zones of 4 hours +/- of Dubai (GST) will be considered for that purpose.
Requirements
We are looking for an experienced bookkeeping or accounts administration professional who can manage multi-entity finances to the highest standards.
Is This Role Right For You?
If you answer “YES” to all these, we’ll be a great fit:
- You have 3–5 years of bookkeeping or accounts administration experience under your belt, ideally within a fast-paced, multi-entity environment.
- You have serious Xero chops. You know your way around bank reconciliations, invoicing, manual journals, reporting, and multi-org management like the back of your hand.
- You are a tenacious and professionally persistent collections champion. You have a demonstrated track record in AR and feel completely comfortable chasing payments across email, WhatsApp, and phone.
- Your month-end close experience is rock-solid. Accruals, prepayments, and manual journals don't sweat you.
- Your A+ organizational skills allow you to hit recurring deadlines without supervisor micromanagement. You are completely self-managing.
- You have excellent written and spoken English, representing the business brilliantly to clients, suppliers, and internal staff.
- You are discreet, trustworthy, and take pride in maintaining ultimate hygiene with sensitive financial data (including TRN, licenses, addresses, and supporting UAE e-invoicing readiness).
- Experience in a digital, marketing, or professional services agency is a major "nice to have," as is multi-currency accounting experience.
Benefits
- The opportunity to work with a talented team on an important mission.
- Above-market salary + incentives.
- Unlimited (paid) personal time off for vacation, sick, and wellness days.
- Full-time, flexible hours, and the freedom to work from home (or anywhere else) within timezones of 4 hours +/- of Dubai.
- Radical transparency across business metrics and information (we call this "open for business").
- 100% company-paid health insurance.
- When the company does well, so will you. 8-15% of the net profit gets shared amongst the team members—you included.
- Regular training, professional workshops, and book purchases are covered by us.
- Team retreats and meet-ups that bring together our remote-first workforce.
- A fun work culture where we value your work and our business.
