Responsibilities

As the Head of Finance based in Riyadh, you will be pivotal in steering the financial direction of the company and enhancing our financial performance. Your initial focus will be to establish robust accounting processes and controls for our newly established entities within Saudi Arabia, ensuring alignment with both local and international standards.

What will help you succeed in this role?

  • Proven Expertise: Extensive experience in financial management within a multi-national corporation, preferably in the legal or professional services sectors.
  • Saudi Experience: Familiarity with local accounting rules and taxes, with proficiency in Arabic, as financial records must be maintained in Arabic.
  • Strategic Thinker: Ability to craft and implement financial strategies that align with the company's long-term goals.
  • Analytical Skills: Strong capability in financial analysis, budget management, and forecasting.
  • Technical Proficiency: Excellent command of financial systems (experience with Zoho Books and 3E preferred), alongside advanced MS Excel skills.
  • Communication and Leadership: Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills with a proven track record in leading teams and managing complex stakeholder relationships.
  • Adaptability: Experience in managing change and transition in a high-growth environment, with a hands-on approach to tackling challenges and driving performance.
