- Steward working capital and balance sheet integrity across receivables, payables, inventory, fixed assets, intercompany balances, account reconciliations, and balance sheet reviews.
- Interpret accounting standards and corporate policy, govern accounting treatment for significant transactions, review complex contracts and business arrangements, and ensure consistent application of accounting policies across APAC.
- Simplify and standardize finance processes, driving ERP, SAP, automation, AI, and digital transformation initiatives to improve efficiency, strengthen controls, reduce manual work, and improve data quality.
- Partner cross-functionally with Tax, Treasury, Legal, Operations, Supply Chain, Shared Services, Corporate Accounting, HR, and Global Security to support appropriate transaction structuring and execution from a controllership perspective.
- Oversee legal entity governance throughout the entity lifecycle, including formation, restructuring, mergers, liquidations, legal entity records, and audit readiness.
- Lead the regional controllership organization, build technical accounting and compliance capabilities, develop succession plans, strengthen organizational resilience, and promote accountability, integrity, and continuous improvement.

### About you

- 12 to 18 years of progressive finance experience, including 5 to 8 years in controllership, finance director, or regional leadership roles
- Experience managing multiple APAC countries, legal entities, and shared-service relationships.
