What your impact will be…

US GAAP & technical accounting

Own US GAAP technical accounting areas including ASC 842 lease accounting, intangible asset amortization, stock-based compensation, debt accounting (issuance costs, ST/LT reclassification, interest accruals) and MTM valuation of derivatives and cash-flow hedges.
Prepare and support US GAAP financial statements, including initial drafts, roll-forwards and supporting schedules.
Research and document technical accounting positions and memos in line with US GAAP and company policy.
Perform US general-ledger accounting: journal entries, accruals, allocations, AR bad-debt provisioning and other month-end entries.
Prepare the monthly cash-flow statement and support consolidated cash-flow and debt reporting.
Complete assigned balance-sheet reconciliations and FloQast checklist items within close deadlines, ensuring all items are well supported.
Perform monthly bank reconciliations, ensuring all transactions are accurately matched and variances are investigated and resolved in a timely manner.
Own US payroll accounting and reconciliations, working with the payroll team so that payroll execution and payroll accounting are clearly segregated and fully reconciled each period.
Lead US audit support: prepare PBC schedules, respond to auditor queries and maintain audit-ready documentation.
Maintain strong internal controls and segregation of duties across GL and payroll processes.
Execute and document SOX controls for assigned processes, support SOX walkthroughs and control testing, and partner with internal and external auditors to remediate any control gaps.
Support and mentor other GL team members on complex accounting matters, and partner with the regional (APAC) team on cross-entity activities.

Around 5–8 years of post-qualification experience in accounting, with significant US GAAP exposure.
Hands-on experience with US GL accounting, month-end close, financial-statement preparation and technical accounting (leases, debt, stock-comp, derivatives).
Experience supporting external audits and preparing audit schedules.
Hands-on SOX compliance experience – operating and documenting internal controls, supporting walkthroughs, control testing and deficiency remediation in a SOX 404 environment.
Strong working knowledge of US payroll accounting and reconciliations.
Proficiency with ERP / accounting systems and reconciliation tools (e.g., NetSuite/Oracle, FloQast or similar) and advanced MS Excel.
Excellent attention to detail, a controls-first mindset, and the ability to meet tight close timelines.
Strong written and verbal communication, with the flexibility to overlap with US business hours during close and audit periods.

What will give you an edge…

Big 4 or US-multinational shared-services / GIC experience.
Exposure to multi-entity, multi-currency consolidations and intercompany accounting.
