Data and technology are at the heart of our culture, fueling our curiosity and innovation. If you’re ready to begin your best journey and help build travel for the world, join us.\nThe Opportunity \nWe are looking for an FX Controller to join our Finance team in Bangkok. This role is ideal for an experienced accounting professional with strong technical knowledge of foreign exchange, derivatives, hedge accounting and financial controls in a complex multinational environment. \nYou will own the accounting and controllership framework for foreign-currency transactions and exposures across multiple entities, currencies and jurisdictions. This includes FX revaluation, realized and unrealized gains and losses, derivatives, hedge-related accounting, foreign-currency intercompany transactions, exchange-rate governance and the reconciliation of Treasury systems to the general ledger. \nYou will be responsible for ensuring that FX accounting outcomes are complete, accurate, explainable and compliant with applicable accounting standards and internal policies. You will also provide clear analysis of material FX movements, identify unexpected exposures or accounting outcomes, and coordinate their resolution with Treasury, Controllership, Tax, Finance Systems and other Finance teams. \nBeyond close and reporting ownership, you will help establish a scalable FX accounting operating model. This includes strengthening controls, improving exposure and hedge visibility, automating reconciliations and ensuring that the economic intent of Treasury activity is reflected appropriately in the financial statements. \nThis is a high-impact role for someone who enjoys combining technical accounting, FX and derivatives expertise, financial controllership, data analysis and cross-functional leadership. \nIn This Role, You'll Get To \nFX Accounting and Close Ownership \nOwn the end-to-end accounting for foreign-currency transactions, balances, exposures and Treasury-driven FX activity across multiple entities and ledgers. \nManage monthly, quarterly and annual FX close activities, ensuring that all relevant transactions, valuations, revaluations and accounting adjustments are recorded accurately and on time. \nReview and approve FX-related journal entries, including realized and unrealized gains and losses, balance-sheet revaluations, derivatives, settlements and hedge-related entries. \nEnsure the correct treatment of transaction currency, functional currency, reporting currency and source-currency amounts throughout the accounting process. \nReview FX results across the income statement, balance sheet and other comprehensive income, where applicable, and explain material movements to senior Finance stakeholders. \nPerform reasonableness and trend analysis of FX gains and losses against exposures, market-rate movements, hedging activity, prior periods and forecasts. \nInvestigate unexpected FX volatility, unusual source-currency balances, duplicated or missing entries, incorrect exchange rates and other accounting exceptions. \nMaintain clear visibility over outstanding FX close items, owners, financial impact and expected resolution dates. \nDerivatives and Hedge Accounting \nOversee the accounting for FX derivatives, including forwards, options, swaps and other instruments used to manage foreign-currency risk. \nReview derivative valuations, settlements, premiums, accruals and related general-ledger postings. \nAssess and document the appropriate accounting treatment for new or non-routine FX and derivative transactions. \nSupport or oversee hedge designation, hedge documentation, effectiveness assessments and the ongoing accounting for qualifying hedging relationships. \nEnsure accurate presentation of hedge results between the income statement, balance sheet and other comprehensive income, where applicable. \nMonitor non-designated or non-qualifying hedges and ensure that their accounting impact is accurately tracked and explained. \nReview hedge discontinuations, modifications, rollovers, early settlements and ineffectiveness for appropriate accounting treatment. \nSupport quarterly derivatives disclosures, group reporting, regulatory or survey submissions and audit requirements. \nFX Exposure and Balance-Sheet Control \nDevelop and maintain a complete view of material foreign-currency monetary assets, liabilities, commitments and intercompany exposures. \nReconcile FX exposure information between Treasury systems, bank data, subledgers, consolidation systems and the general ledger. \nReview foreign-currency cash, bank, receivable, payable, loan, cash-pool and intercompany balances for completeness and appropriate revaluation. \nOversee the accounting for foreign-currency intercompany funding, settlements, service charges and other cross-border transactions. \nEnsure approved exchange rates are applied consistently, including spot rates, month-end rates, average rates, historical rates and fixed intercompany rates where required. \nChallenge unexplained or unhedged exposures and work with Treasury and Finance teams to determine whether they arise from genuine economic positions, timing differences, missing transactions or accounting errors. \nEstablish investigation and escalation thresholds for material FX differences and unresolved reconciliation items. \nEnsure significant FX-related balance-sheet accounts are reconciled, reviewed and signed off within the close timetable. \nExchange-Rate Governance and Data Quality \nOwn or oversee the governance of exchange rates used in ERP, Treasury, consolidation and reporting systems. \nValidate that approved rates are complete, accurate, timely and consistently applied across entities and accounting processes. \nMonitor interfaces between systems, market-data sources, ERP platforms and relevant tools. \nInvestigate differences caused by incorrect rates, stale data, currency mapping or system configurations. \nPartner with Finance Systems and Treasury teams to improve the reliability and traceability of data. \nMaintain appropriate evidence and approval records for rates, valuations, adjustments and system-generated entries. \nFinancial Reporting and Management Analysis \nDeliver accurate and timely FX accounting results for management, treasury, group consolidation and statutory reporting. \nPrepare clear explanations of material movements, distinguishing between operational exposure, translation effects, revaluation, hedging results, settlement timing and accounting corrections. \nPartner with FP&A and Finance Business Partners to explain actual FX outcomes against forecast or budget assumptions. \nSupport the preparation and review of financial-statement disclosures relating to foreign currency, derivatives, financial instruments and risk management. \nProvide accounting insight to Treasury on the potential financial-statement implications of proposed transactions or hedging strategies. \nSupport senior management and group reporting queries relating to FX volatility, exposure, hedging performance and balance-sheet movements. \nControls, Compliance and Audit \nDesign and maintain a robust internal-control framework for FX accounting, valuation, journal entries, reconciliations, rates and hedge-related processes. \nEnsure FX accounting processes comply with corporate policies, SOX requirements and applicable accounting guidance, including US GAAP where relevant. \nMaintain audit-ready documentation supporting FX exposures, exchange rates, valuations, accounting conclusions and hedge relationships. \nPartner with internal and external auditors on FX accounting, derivative valuation, hedge accounting and control-testing requirements. \nIdentify control gaps, recurring exceptions and financial-reporting risks, and implement practical remediation plans. \nEnsure appropriate segregation of duties between transaction execution, confirmation, valuation, accounting, reconciliation and approval. \nEstablish controls over manual FX entries and ensure that material adjustments receive appropriate review and approval. \nProjects and Process Improvement \nLead initiatives to improve FX accounting, valuation, reporting, exposure management and close processes. \nAutomate reconciliations between Treasury systems, ERP platforms, bank data and consolidation systems. \nReduce dependence on manual spreadsheets and develop controlled, scalable sources of FX accounting information. \nDefine accounting and control requirements for new currencies, entities, bank accounts, Treasury products and system implementations. \nSupport requirements gathering, solution design, user-acceptance testing, deployment and post-go-live monitoring for FX-related Finance projects. \nDevelop dashboards and exception reports that improve visibility over FX exposures, hedge coverage, accounting results and unresolved differences. \nExplore appropriate automation and AI-enabled solutions to improve analysis, exception detection, documentation and close efficiency. \nPerform root-cause analysis of recurring FX accounting issues

closely with Treasury, Controllership, Tax, FP&A, Finance Systems, Legal, Risk and entity accounting teams. \nCoordinate FX accounting activities across multiple entities and time zones, with clear ownership, deadlines and escalation paths. \nReview the work of team members and provide technical guidance, coaching and quality oversight. \nTranslate complex FX and accounting topics into clear,
