  • Lead financial planning processes, including budgeting and forecasting, offering data-driven insights to support strategic goals.
  • Develop and implement financial strategies aligned with business growth while maintaining compliance with relevant regulations.
  • Mentor and guide Finance Managers, promoting best practices and continuous improvement.
  • Adapt to a dynamic business environment by leading or supporting key financial projects, including M&A initiatives.

  • CA/CPA qualification (or equivalent).
  • 10+ years of finance experience, with 5+ years in leadership roles blending compliance and commercial expertise.
  • Expertise in business performance reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and strategic planning.
