Job Description
Financial Controller (Onsite – Full Ownership Role)
Location: Onsite – UAE
Reports to: CEO
Department: Finance
Type: Full-Time | Senior Leadership
Role Overview
This is not a passive "review from a distance" position.
You'll be physically embedded with the team, leading the month-end close, reviewing and approving all journal entries, enforcing financial discipline, and making sure no number leaves the finance department unchecked.
If the numbers don't add up — you know why.
If a deadline is at risk — you're already ahead of it. If a risk exists — you flag it and fix it.
Key Responsibilities Financial Control & Reporting
● Lead and own the monthly close process from start to finish
● Review and approve all journal entries and reconciliations (banks, payment processors,
intercompany, etc.)
● Maintain and enforce the Chart of Accounts and posting discipline
● Deliver monthly P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow statements with full supporting schedules
● Ensure all entries are fully documented and audit-ready
● Identify and escalate financial risks to the CEO with clear, data-backed reporting
Statutory, Audit & Tax
● Oversee VAT, payroll tax, and corporate tax preparation and filings
● Coordinate with external auditors to ensure a smooth year-end process
● Prepare statutory financial statements and ensure compliance with UAE and international accounting standards
Treasury & Payments
● Oversee payment review and approval workflows
● Monitor and report on weekly cash positions, with full reconciliation detail
● Liaise with banks and payment partners to support operational finance
Team & Cross-Functional Leadership
● Work closely with the Finance Manager, Senior Accountant, and other teams
● Review output for accuracy and compliance, providing corrective feedback
● Maintain and strengthen internal control processes
● Present monthly red/yellow/green finance health status to the CEO
Why Onsite Matters
You'll be onsite to:
● Review and verify source documentation
● Lead real-time close meetings and approvals
● Collaborate closely with operational and finance teams
● Maintain complete visibility and control over processes
The Right Candidate Can.
● Instantly explain our financial position and close status
● Present audit-ready schedules without last-minute scrambling
● Spot and resolve discrepancies before they reach leadership
● Build stronger processes when weaknesses are found
Success in This Role Means.
● Month-end close is on time, accurate, and complete
● Financial reports are clear, consistent, and actionable
● No unexplained entries or missing reconciliations
● Finance operations run smoothly because expectations and controls are clear
● Leadership trusts your numbers — and your judgment
Required Qualifications
● Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA/CA preferred)
● Minimum 8 years in accounting or financial control
● At least 2 years as a Controller or final reviewer
● Mastery of GAAP or IFRS
● Experience in:
○ Multi-entity accounting
○ Revenue recognition
○ Tax compliance (VAT, payroll tax, statutory)
○ Internal controls and reconciliations
● Proficiency in ERPs such as Zoho Books, Xero, or NetSuite
● Fluent English communication skills — written and verbal
● Strong discipline in documentation and audit preparation
Bonus Experience
● Worked in SaaS, eLearning, or fintech environments
● Built or cleaned up close processes in scaling businesses
● Liaised directly with regulators or compliance teams
● Experience with UAE tax systems and cross-border operations
How to Apply
Send your CV and a short note covering:
-Where you've led or owned the month-end close process
-An example of a financial issue you caught early and resolved
-Your most-used accounting system — and one you'd never use again
