Finance Accounting Manager

Job Title: Finance Accounting Manager (Ecommerce Client Lead)

About SeekAdvisory We help ambitious international businesses run clean, scalable finance. Clients include ecommerce brands, 3PLs, agencies, Amazon sellers, SaaS, and complex multi-entity setups. We handle international tax planning, company structuring, bookkeeping, CFO services, audits, and M&A diligence. The promise is simple: headache-free finance so clients can scale.

The Opportunity You will own finance for one of our key ecommerce clients from end to end. You will design and run the monthly close, fix what is broken, make cash predictable, and be the person the CEO trusts when things get ambiguous. Do this well and you grow into broader leadership. The bar is high.

What you will own

• Month-end that ships on time. Close multi-entity books, reconcile banks and marketplaces, land accurate COGS and inventory, and deliver clean financials with commentary.
• Cash and control. Build a 13-week cash view, manage payables collections cadence, and keep surprises near zero.
• Systems and process. Map the current flow, remove waste, set SLAs, and document simple SOPs that others can follow.
  
  Client leadership. Run standing reviews, translate numbers into decisions, and push back when needed.
• Data you can trust. Keep Xero/QBO tidy. Integrate the right add-ons. Make sure source data supports the story.
• Continuous improvement. Prioritize one high-impact fix each month and land it.

What success looks like

• 30 days: You can run the close with light oversight. You've flagged and sized the top three control gaps.
• 90 days: Close cycle shortened. Cash forecast within a tight tolerance. Inventory and COGS logic validated.
• 12 months: A stable finance engine with clear SOPs, one capable team beneath you, and a client CFO who treats you as the first call for decisions.

Who you are

• You are not a paper pusher.
• You are a doer who can think.
• You spot broken processes fast and fix them without drama.
• You like owning a number and being judged on results.
• You can explain complex things simply to non-finance people.
• You can work with pace, without micromanagement.

Qualifications

• Solid accounting foundation. CPA, ACCA, CA, or equivalent depth is a plus.
• 5+ years in accounting or finance operations with clear wins that improved cycle time, accuracy, or cash.
• Strong Xero/QBO experience. Comfort with ecommerce tooling is a plus (for example A2X or similar).
• Hands-on with consolidations, inventory and COGS, reconciliations, and audit support.
• Clear written and spoken English.

Why Join Us

• Work side by side with senior operators and ex Big Four talents. Real coaching, fast feedback.
• A team built for growth. We invest in training and expect visible improvement, month over month.
• You'll be the client's first call, not their paperwork person.
• Full trust and real responsibility. Make the call, explain the why, move the numbers.
• Your work shows up in growth, margins, and cash, where it actually matters.
• Room to build: fix broken processes, design better ones, and teach others to run them.
• Direct access to partners and the CEO/CFO for decisions and mentoring.
• We keep bureaucracy low so you can ship useful work every week.
• We don't micromanage.
• Outcome-based work: you manage your tasks, we measure results.
