What We're Looking For

  • Experience in an SME or operational environment where roles are hands-on
  • Solid understanding of accounts processes, payroll, and basic compliance requirements
  • Ability to take ownership of financial administration with minimal supervision
  • Previous experience supervising or supporting a small team
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work closely with non-finance stakeholders
