• Bank and loan reconciliations (supporting debt schedules/interest)
• AP/GRNI and supplier statement reconciliations (in coordination with AP)
• Inventory-related cut-offs and adjustments (with cost control/operations)
• Advances, deposits, accruals, and intercompany/transfers (CPU/roastery/outlets)

Multi-Unit / CPU / Roastery Accounting Support

• Support accurate inventory valuation, stock movements, transfers, and cut-offs
• Work with cost control/operations to strengthen COGS accuracy (standard costing inputs, waste/yield considerations)
  
  

Automation & Analytics (Strong Advantage)

• Build/maintain Power BI dashboards for finance operations and exception reporting (close trackers, reconciliations, AP/GRNI cleanliness, outlet KPIs)
• Use Power Query to streamline data preparation and reconciliation workflows
• Automate repetitive finance processes using Power Automate / Power Apps (and/or RPA tools)
  
  

Controls & Cross-Functional Discipline

• Enforce documentation and cut-offs (PO/GRN discipline, approvals, supporting evidence)
• Coordinate with procurement, operations, and outlet teams to resolve gaps and prevent repeat issues
  
  

What You’ll Be Measured On (First 90 Days)

• Close tasks delivered on time; reconciliation pack current and complete
• Audit queries responded to within agreed timelines with proper evidence
• Reduction in unreconciled balances (bank/loan, AP/GRNI, intercompany, inventory)
• Improved quality and timeliness of outlet/cost center reporting
• At least 1–2 automation improvements delivered (Power BI/Power Automate/Power Query)
  
  

Requirements (Must-Have)

• 5–10+ years of accounting experience (multi-site retail/F&B strongly preferred)
• Strong month-end close execution and balance sheet reconciliation capability
• Audit-facing experience (industry + external audit coordination or audit background)
