Who is Workbean

Workbean is an employer branding company founded on a clear belief: the way organisations invest in people can be improved.

Our mission is to co-create experiences that enable organisations to bring out the best in their people and drive performance forward.

We do this by doing the work that makes work, work — partnering closely with organisations to design employer branding strategies, stories, and experiences that are thoughtful, relevant, and rooted in real insight. Through this approach, we help make employer branding magic happen, not as spectacle, but as meaningful work that creates lasting impact for both brands and people.

At Workbean, we value ownership, intention, and mastery of craft. We believe great employer branding happens when people take responsibility for the quality of their work, think beyond deliverables, and care deeply about the impact their work creates.

This is how we describe the role:

As Finance & Admin Manager at Workbean, you will own the accounting and admin function end-to-end — and lead the team that runs it. You'll take direct responsibility for the books, compliance, and finance operations. The ideal candidate is a licensed CPA who can run a finance function independently, think critically about what the numbers mean, and bring solutions to the table.

Your day in a life looks like this:

• Own full-cycle bookkeeping and monthly close
• Manage accounts payable and receivable, including complex client billing terms
• Prepare and oversee payroll
• Lead cash flow forecasting and financial reporting 
• Ensure compliance with BIR filings, statutory deadlines, and government reporting
• Coordinate day-to-day work of Finance & Admin Associates — task assignment and quality checks across collections and admin functions
• Build and maintain finance process documentation so critical work isn't dependent on any one person's memory

You'll be a great match is you have:

• CPA required
• 3-5 years post-licensure accounting experience; private company or advertising agency background a plus
• Proven or emerging people management experience for this manager role, overseeing Finance & Admin Associates
• Strong analytical thinking — able to work closely with the management to turn financial data into clear, decision-useful reports
• Strong communicator — able to work independently and escalate judiciously
• Proficiency in accounting software and MS Office Suite
• Knowledge of Philippine tax regulations and compliance requirements

Here's a preview of what we offer:

• Flexible leave options to let you live your best life and create magic that lasts! ✨
• An HMO plan to keep your health in check.
• Mainly remote work, so you can take charge of your time (and keep your pet happy!)
• 2x a month required onsite at 134 Jupiter, Makati City.
