About the Firm

A well-established Singapore-headquartered private equity firm with multi-billion dollar assets under management and more than 15 years of investing track record across Asia. The platform has grown into multiple strategies, vintages, and asset classes, with a complex network of GP and corporate entities consolidating into a single holding company.

The Opportunity

We are hiring a Finance Controller to take ownership of GP-level accounting, reporting, and consolidation across more than 30 corporate entities and multiple jurisdictions. Reporting into the Group CFO, this is a newly created role driven by the firm continuing to scale its strategies, jurisdictions, and structures.

This is not a maintenance seat. The reporting infrastructure has not kept pace with platform growth. The mandate is to take the existing patchwork of outsourced service providers, fragmented reporting timelines, and a growing entity footprint, and build a coherent, scalable, audit-ready framework over the next 5 to 10 years.

Why This Role Will Appeal to You

If you have personally executed and built corporate accounting infrastructure inside a lean, complex, multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction environment, this role is for you. You will own the consolidation, hold service providers accountable, and partner directly with the Group CFO on the most confidential financials of the firm. The reporting line and team structure will be calibrated to the seniority and skill of the person hired

Key Responsibilities

• Accounting and Reporting (Core): Own GP-level accounting, statutory reporting, and IFRS consolidation across 30 plus corporate entities and multiple jurisdictions. Establish and enforce reporting timelines, quality controls, and review cadence across all outsourced service providers
• Audit Management: Coordinate year-end and interim audits with Big Four auditors (currently Ernst and Young). Drive timelines, documentation, and filings end-to-end across multiple service providers
• Tax Oversight: Supervise cross-border tax matters across multiple structures and jurisdictions, including company-level direct tax, transfer pricing considerations, and the engagement of external tax advisors. Sufficient depth to challenge and validate, not just delegate
• Service Provider Orchestration: Manage the network of outsourced accountants, fund administrators, corporate secretaries, and tax agents across entities and jurisdictions. Drive standardisation and accountability where today there is fragmentation
• Systems and Process Build-Out: Identify reporting and control gaps. Contribute meaningfully to the planned ERP implementation and the wider finance transformation roadmap

Candidate Profile

• CA, ACCA, or CPA qualified — non-negotiable
• 10 to 12 years post-qualification experience in corporate accounting, IFRS consolidation, and statutory reporting
• Demonstrated, hands-on consolidation experience across multiple entities and jurisdictions — not theoretical exposure, not light supervision of an outsourced team
• Strong, current command of IFRS, audit coordination, and statutory reporting. Must be able to defend technical positions in front of Big Four auditors without notes
• Cross-border, company-level tax literacy across at least two jurisdictions
• Big Four assurance background strongly preferred — particularly assurance professionals who have audited fund management companies, GP entities, or investment platforms
• Demonstrated experience operating inside a fund management company, fund administrator, or large corporate or listed group with multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction consolidation

Preferred Backgrounds Include:

• Finance professionals at fund managers or investment platforms who have personally owned GP-level corporate accounting and consolidation inside lean, growing, under-instrumented environments
• Candidates who have rebuilt or stood up reporting frameworks, standardised processes across multiple outsourced providers, or led an ERP migration or finance transformation
• Fund administration professionals with CA, CPA, or ACCA who have managed complex PE client portfolios end-to-end and are seeking a permanent move to the principal side
• Big Four assurance professionals with deep consolidation experience of fund management companies or GP entities, looking to transition in-house into a hands-on, operational seat
• Finance Controllers at listed companies or conglomerates running multi-entity consolidation across multiple jurisdictions, especially those who have operated inside under-resourced or high-growth environments

Who You Are

• A builder, not a maintainer. You have personally taken fragmented reporting and turned it into something that works
• Technically deep AND meticulous. You can talk through a complex consolidation, a transfer pricing flow, or a tax structure without notes, and you sweat the small things in execution
• Comfortable with both scale and complexity. Multiple funds, multiple structures, multiple service providers do not overwhelm you — that is the job
• Comfortable with repetitive, disciplined work. You understand that the integrity of reporting is built on doing the routine work cleanly every cycle, without exception
• A self-starter. The structure here is not yet defined for you. You will design the cadence, the controls, and the escalation path
• A team player. The firm operates as a close-knit, long-tenured team. Lone heroes do not thrive here. Trusted soldiers do
• Long-term oriented. This is a 5 to 10 year seat at the heart of the firm financials, not a stepping stone
