Assistant Financial Accountant

Job Description

We are a leading trading platform that is ambitiously expanding to the four corners of the globe. Our top-rated products have won prestigious industry awards for their cutting-edge technology and seamless client experience. We deliver only the best, so we are always in search of the best people to join our ever-growing talented team.

This role sits at the core of how we scale a regulated fintech business. You will own the integrity of our financial records while ensuring we meet MAS regulatory standards in a fast-evolving environment. As we expand products and enter new phases of growth, the complexity of reporting, client money handling, and regulatory scrutiny increases, and this is where your impact matters. You will act as the bridge between finance, compliance, and product, ensuring every new initiative is built on a robust and compliant financial foundation.

Responsibilites:

  • Manage full-cycle bookkeeping, accounts payable, and payment execution processes, ensuring accurate and timely financial operations across payroll, vendors, and intercompany flows.
  • Ensure MAS compliance by preparing daily capital adequacy calculations and delivering accurate, timely regulatory filings across quarterly and annual cycles.
  • Safeguard client money requirements by maintaining strict adherence to regulatory standards, reducing risk and ensuring operational integrity.
  • Lead month-end and year-end close processes, producing reliable financial statements that support decision-making and external reporting.
  • Own the audit process by acting as the primary point of contact for external auditors, ensuring smooth coordination and high-quality outputs.
  • Deliver accurate tax reporting, including GST filings, by navigating the complexities of financial services treatment across exempt and taxable supplies.
  • Partner with product and technology teams during UAT cycles, ensuring new instruments such as Shares and CFDs are correctly reflected in financial systems.
  • Validate ledger mappings for trades, fees, and assets, ensuring financial accuracy from day one of new product launches.
  • Strengthen financial controls and processes, identifying gaps and implementing scalable solutions as the business grows.

Requirements:

Industry Knowledge

  • Strong grounding in financial accounting within regulated environments, ideally fintech, trading, or financial services.
  • Working knowledge of MAS regulatory requirements, including capital adequacy and client money rules.
  • Experience handling GST in financial services, with a clear understanding of exempt vs taxable supplies.

Problem-Solving

  • Ability to translate regulatory and accounting complexity into clear, structured processes.
  • Comfortable operating in evolving environments where systems, products, and requirements are still being shaped.
  • Strong attention to detail, with the ability to spot inconsistencies before they become issues.

Collaboration & Influence

  • Experience working cross-functionally with compliance, product, and technology teams.
  • Confident communicator who can align stakeholders on financial and regulatory requirements.
  • Ability to act as a bridge between technical and non-technical teams.

Mindset & Style

  • High ownership and accountability for outcomes, not just tasks.
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where priorities can shift.
  • Proactive, structured, and resilient, with a focus on continuous improvement.

What you will get in return:

• Competitive Salary: We believe great work deserves great pay! Your skills and talents will be rewarded with a salary that makes you feel valued and motivated.

• Work-Life Harmony: Join a company that genuinely cares about you - because your life outside of work matters just as much as your time on the clock. #LI-Hybrid

• Generous Time Off: Need a breather? Our annual leave policy lets you recharge and enjoy life outside of work without a worry.

• Employee Referral Program: Love working here? Share the love! Bring your talented friends on board and get rewarded for growing our awesome team.

• Comprehensive Health & Pension Benefits: From medical insurance to pension plans, we’ve got your back. Plus, location-specific benefits and perks!

• Workation Wonderland: Live your digital nomad dreams with 30 extra days to work remotely from anywhere in the world (some restrictions apply). Adventure awaits!

• Volunteer Days: Make a difference! Take two additional paid days each year to support causes you care about and give back to the community.

Be a key player at the forefront of the digital assets movement, propelling your career to new heights! Join a dynamic and rapidly expanding company that values and rewards talent, initiative, and creativity. Work alongside one of the most brilliant teams in the industry.
