Where JEG Tower, Archbishop Reyes, Corner Acacia St., Barangay Kamputhaw, Cebu City, 6000 Cebu
About The Role
As a Finance Generalist, you'll take ownership of the transactional cycle across Accounts and Accounting — managing the daily sales journal, weekly accounts payable and receivable, and the reconciliation of all bank and credit card accounts, alongside balance sheet reconciliations, the fixed assets register, and BAS support. As the first offshore role on the account, you'll also establish best practice, document and standardise finance workflows, and help grow the team here over time. It's a role for someone analytical and detail-driven who can carry work through to completion with minimal supervision — and who's confident enough to speak up, share ideas, and take on more as the offshore function develops.
