Bukku is a well-funded and fast growing software company running the most-loved cloud accounting software currently being used by more than 20k SMEs in the country.

As we scale and head towards going regional, we're looking for a sharp and driven Senior Accounts & Finance Executive to own our day-to-day accounting and grow into a broader finance role. You'll start with a strong accounting focus, but as we automate the manual, repetitive parts of the job, your role will progressively shift towards finance — budgeting, analysis, forecasting, and partnering with the business to drive smart decisions. If you want your career to grow in the same direction the finance function is heading, this is the seat for you.

Responsibilities

Manage the full set of accounts, including AP/AR, general ledger, journal entries, and bank reconciliations.
Ensure timely and accurate month-end and year-end closing.
Prepare financial statements and management reports.
Handle statutory compliance, tax matters, and liaise with auditors, tax agents, and the company secretary.
Manage cash flow, payments, and day-to-day treasury matters.
Continuously improve and automate accounting processes — we believe routine accounting should be done by machines, not humans.
Progress towards finance: assist with budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, and business partnering as the role evolves.
Support management with ad-hoc financial analysis and decision-making.

Requirements

Degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (professional qualification such as ACCA / CIMA / CPA is a strong plus).
Minimum 3 - 5 years of relevant working experience in accounting / finance. Experience in a startup, tech, or software company is highly desirable.
Solid understanding of full-set accounts and Malaysian statutory and tax requirements.
Tech savvy and comfortable with cloud accounting software and automation tools (bonus points if you've used Bukku!).
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with high attention to detail.
Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal supervision.
Good communication skills in English; another language (Malay or Chinese) is a plus.

The perfect candidate:

Having a think big, start small mindset (You're ambitious yet patient).
Having a growth mindset (You thrive on challenge and are hungry for improvements).
Embraces automation (You'd rather fix the process than do the same task twice).
Confident yet humble (Confident when you know your stuff).
True team player (If you want to go far, go together).
