• Review and approve bank reconciliations and journals prepared by the Accounts Payable team, ensuring compliance with internal controls and company policies

• Perform system reconciliations and analysis across SAP and other financial systems, supporting audit requirements and financial integrity

• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, system enhancements, and provide ad‑hoc accounting support across the Group

• Hold a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (or equivalent), with strong foundational knowledge of financial and management accounting

• Bring practical experience in month‑end reporting, reconciliations, accruals, and multi‑entity accounting, ideally within a corporate or group environment
