Financial Reporting and Control Manager

Position Summary

We are looking for a Financial Reporting and Control Manager to own group reporting and the monthly close across Hex Trust's legal entities in Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas. You will run the group consolidation in Workday, our new ERP, and own the numbers that go to the Executive Committee, the Board, our auditors and our regulators.

Our finance team is deliberately small. Workday and AI tools handle most of the transaction processing, reconciliation and first-draft analysis, so your job is to run the close as a controlled process, check what the systems produce, and stand behind the result. The role suits a qualified accountant who wants more ownership than a large finance team would offer, and who is comfortable reviewing work that a machine has prepared.

You will report to the Director of Finance and work closely with the Group CFO.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Own the monthly group close as a controlled process: set the close calendar, run the review gates, and sign off entity results with the Director of Finance.
• Run the group consolidation in Workday, including intercompany eliminations and currency translation, and review the system output rather than assembling it by hand. Catch the cases where a system-generated elimination or translation is wrong.
• Produce the monthly Executive Committee reporting and the quarterly board reporting for the Group, Singapore and MENA, delivered through our live financial dashboard. Turn the automated variance analysis into clear commentary that you can defend.
• Review the closes of the material legal entities, and own intercompany recharges and reconciliations.
• Deliver the statutory audits across the group with the Director of Finance: prepare schedules and workpapers, manage auditor requests, and challenge proposed adjustments where the treatment is wrong.
• Account for digital assets, staking and validator income, stablecoin activity and trading results, with treatment and documentation that are ready for audit.
• Prepare regulatory financial returns, including monthly reporting to VARA in Dubai and returns to the MAS in Singapore, for sign-off by the Director of Finance.
• Coordinate tax compliance with our local advisors across jurisdictions.
• Keep the finance procedures and our finance knowledge base current, so that the automated tools and AI agents work from accurate instructions.
• Work with the finance operations team to extend the automation of the close and of our reporting.

Requirements

• Qualified accountant (CPA, ACCA or equivalent) with three to five years of experience, ideally including audit at a Big Four or mid-tier firm.
• Hands-on experience of group consolidation, intercompany eliminations and multi-currency reporting across several legal entities.
• Experience with a modern ERP; Workday is a strong advantage. We value ERP experience over advanced spreadsheet consolidation skills.
• Sound technical accounting under IFRS or HKFRS. Experience with digital assets or crypto accounting is an advantage but not a must.
• Comfortable working with AI tools and automated workflows. Much of your first draft will come from a system, and your job is to question it. Examples of where you have used AI tools in finance work are a plus.
• The judgement to say a number is wrong, to push back on an auditor, and to explain results clearly to senior stakeholders.
• Experience with regulatory financial reporting in Hong Kong, Singapore or Dubai is an advantage.
• Strong written and spoken English. Cantonese or Mandarin is an advantage.

Candidates who do not tick all the boxes are still encouraged to apply, those with less experience will still be considered for the position but with an adjustment to the level of seniority.
