Job Description
Role Purpose
The role is envisioned primarily as a Finance Business Partner (FBP), working alongside the Head of FGT (Finance Governance & Transformation), Finance Manager and the existing team for activities across two distinct workstreams: (i) active participation in New and Amended Product Assessments (NAPAs), bridging Finance and Business to ensure Finance outputs are accurately captured and reflected throughout the assessment process; and (ii) supporting Finance functions — including Financial Reporting, Financial Operations, Tax and Strategic Finance — with requirements for Finance-driven system and reporting initiatives, ensuring sufficient and well-structured information is provided to Finance Product Managers and Finance Tech for execution. The role sits at the intersection of accounting knowledge, tax awareness, operational finance flows and technology — requiring a candidate equally comfortable discussing accounting treatment and tax implications with senior Finance stakeholders and translating Finance requirements into actionable specifications for engineers and product managers. The individual might be expected to take on a secondary support role in Finance automation initiatives. Business analytics skills (data querying, dashboarding, reporting automation) would be a valued bonus.
Primary Role — Finance Business Partnering
- Actively participate in NAPAs as the Finance representative, working across Business, Product, Tech, Legal, Compliance, Risk and PMO to ensure all Finance considerations — including accounting treatment, tax implications and operational requirements — are identified and comprehensively reflected in assessment outputs
- Lead end-to-end financial structuring and solution design for new product launches and strategic initiatives — defining how a new product or business model should be structured from a Finance perspective, and ensuring alignment between business objectives and Finance, accounting and operational requirements
- Support business go-live readiness by contributing to go-live roadmaps, process documentation and change management initiatives for new product rollouts; facilitate UAT, deliver training to Finance and business users, and gather feedback to drive iterative improvements in collaboration with the project team
- Partner with Finance, Product, Technology and Data teams to design and continuously improve the finance system architecture that supports financial reporting, operational oversight and decision-making across the Group
- Facilitate requirements gathering sessions with Finance stakeholders and help translate outputs into structured specifications, flagging gaps or ambiguities before handover to Finance Tech
- Track and monitor delivery progress on Finance-driven initiatives, coordinating Finance-side input during UAT and flagging issues to the relevant Finance function leads
Secondary Role — Automation Support
- Assist with Finance-side requirements gathering and UAT coordination for Finance automation and system initiatives.
- Help translate Finance functional requirements into structured specifications for Finance Product Managers and Finance Tech, particularly for reporting and automation builds
- Support the testing and documentation of automated Finance processes and reporting tools as they are rolled out
- Contribute to the ongoing improvement of Finance automation tools and gathering user feedback.
Candidate Profile
- 2 to 4 years of experience in an accounting or Finance role, ideally with exposure to financial reporting, Finance operations or Finance business partnering
- Accounting knowledge sufficient to understand Finance data structures, chart of accounts logic, and financial statement relationships. Familiarity with IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments) as applied to consumer lending, buy-now-pay-later, credit products and similar financial instruments; broader IFRS knowledge relevant to fintech or financial services is advantageous
- Tech literacy — comfortable engaging with engineers, product managers and data teams on system architecture, data flows, APIs and system requirements without needing to code; able to ask the right questions, challenge technical assumptions and translate Finance needs into specifications that Technology can action
- Mandarin speaking (spoken proficiency) — preferred for engagement with regional counterparts
- Intellectual curiosity about Finance systems, automation and AI tools as applied to Finance analytics and reporting
- Demonstrable understanding of end-to-end business-to-finance flows
- Able to engage senior Finance and business leaders and translate between Finance and business or technical language effectively
- Demonstrated interest or experience in business analytics — data querying (SQL or similar), dashboarding (e.g. Power BI, Tableau or equivalent), or reporting automation
Strong Preferences
- Familiarity with AI tools or computer science fundamentals as applied to Finance automation or system design
- Experience managing or contributing to requirements definition for Finance system builds or enhancements
- Tax awareness — understanding of how product structures interact with tax positions, with a working knowledge of tax considerations relevant to the financial services or fintech sector
