Veremark is a remote-first HR tech scale-up on a mission to help the world trust faster.

We started with background and reference checking, pioneering an entirely new approach through Verepass - a blockchain solution which facilitates instant verification by enabling candidates to own, manage, and share their securely-held and verified career credentials.

We have recently launched our second product - a Whistleblowing platform with end-to-end encryption enabling employees to report issues safely and anonymously.

But this is just the beginning. Join us and become part of the journey using technology to help the world trust faster.

About the role

Veremark is a fast-growing background screening company with multi-entity operations across Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, UAE, US, and ANZ. Following a period of significant growth and acquisition activity, we are building out a high-performing finance function to match our ambitions. 

As Financial Control & Operations Manager, you will own the integrity and efficiency of Veremark's core accounting and finance operations. This is a hands-on leadership role — you will directly manage a team of three accountants covering the UK/MY, PH/ANZ/UAE and SG/US entities, and be the primary point of accountability for month-end close, AP/AR, payroll accounting, tax and statutory reporting, and financial controls. 

You will work closely with the VP Finance and cross-functional teams to ensure the books are clean, close cycles run on time, and the team operates with clarity and accountability.

Key Responsibilities:

Accounting & Month-End Close

•  Own the end-to-end month-end close process across all entities — ensuring the close cycle is completed within 10 working days each month

•  Review and approve journal entries, reconciliations and adjustments before submission — implementing a personal QA process to ensure zero material errors

•  Maintain the general ledger across multiple entities in Xero, ensuring accuracy, consistency and proper allocation

•  Oversee intercompany accounting and ensure intercompany balances reconcile across entities each period

AP / AR & Banking

•  Oversee accounts payable - vendor invoice processing, payment runs and supplier reconciliations

•  Oversee accounts receivable - ensuring AR is accurately recorded, aged debtors are monitored, and collections are followed up in a timely manner

•  Manage bank reconciliations across all entity bank accounts on a monthly basis

•  Ensure cash disbursements are properly authorised and recorded

Tax & Statutory Reporting

•  Manage tax filing obligations across relevant entities — including GST/VAT, corporate tax and withholding tax as applicable

•  Support the preparation of statutory accounts and coordinate with external auditors during annual audits

•  Ensure compliance with local accounting standards and regulatory requirements across all jurisdictions

 Financial Controls & Process

•  Design, implement and maintain financial controls to safeguard company assets and ensure data integrity

•  Proactively identify and flag control gaps or process risks - recommending and implementing improvements

•  Support Finance Transformation on process documentation, SOP development and system improvements

Team Leadership

•  Directly manage and develop three Finance Accountants covering UK, MY, PH, ANZ, UAE, SG and US entities

•  Set clear task allocation, priorities and expectations across the team - particularly during close cycles

•  Build a culture of accountability, accuracy and continuous improvement within the FC&O team

•  Be the team's primary point of contact and source of guidance - resolving queries directly and escalating to the VP Finance only where genuinely required

•  Support onboarding of new team members as the organisation grows

Stakeholder & Cross-functional Collaboration

•  Provide clean, accurate financial data to the FP&A team to support monthly reporting and forecasting

•  Coordinate handovers of processes to Revenue Management and Finance Transformation as the org structure evolves

•  Liaise with external auditors, tax agents and regulatory bodies as required

•  Assist with due diligence and financial integration activities related to acquisitions

Qualifications:

•  Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field; professional qualification (ACCA, CPA, or equivalent) preferred

•  7-10 years of progressive experience in finance operations or accounting, with at least 2–3 years in a team management role

•  Proven experience managing multi-entity accounting across multiple jurisdictions

•  Hands-on experience with Xero - including multi-currency, multi-entity setup and reconciliation workflows

•  Strong command of accounting principles (IFRS/MFRS), financial controls and compliance requirements

•  Track record of owning and improving month-end close processes with a focus on accuracy and timeliness

•  Experience working with external auditors and managing statutory reporting obligations

Preferred:

•  Experience in a SaaS, technology or high-growth company environment

•  Exposure to post-acquisition financial integration

•  Familiarity with payroll accounting across Southeast Asian and ANZ jurisdictions

•  Experience working in a lean finance team where ownership and initiative are essential
