  • Coordinate with operations and sales to align revenue recognition.
  • What Makes You a Perfect Fit

  • Strong technical knowledge of GAAP / IFRS.
  • Ability to manage detailed tasks while providing high-level financial insights.
  • Strong communicator with both finance professionals and non-financial stakeholders.
  • Proactive in identifying risks and recommending improvements.
