We currently support our clients in over 160 countries with the ability to hire in 214 countries and territories worldwide. Our team is distributed across North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. ### ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY Global Expansion (GX) is a fast-growing Employer of Record (EOR), enabling businesses to employ workers across multiple geographies through a network of in-country partners (ICPs).  GX manages the full employment lifecycle, from onboarding and payroll through to invoicing and compliance, across a complex multi-currency, multi-jurisdiction operating model. The Head of Finance leads a finance function across two pillars: Transactions & Reporting and Service Delivery & Commercial. ### WHAT YOU WILL OWN The Head of Finance will be responsible for the following key areas: •      **Full ownership of the finance function**: Financial controls, reporting integrity, and team leadership across both pillars. •      **Board reporting**: Produce accurate, timely, and credible management information that gives the COO and board genuine confidence in the numbers. •      **Month-end close process**: Oversee the GL Accountant and Finance Manager to deliver a clean, controlled close each month within a defined timetable. •      **Financial controls framework**: Design and embed controls appropriate for a multi-currency, multi-jurisdiction EOR business, with clear ownership and sign-off at every stage. •      **Senior stakeholder relationships**: Be the primary finance voice with the COO, board, and business partners; the person people come to first for financial guidance. •      **Technical accounting**: Serve as the go-to expert for complex accounting judgements across the business, including revenue recognition, FX treatment, intercompany and multi-entity consolidation. •      **Team leadership and development**: Build a high-performing finance team, set clear expectations, conduct regular 1:1s, and create a culture of accountability and continuous improvement across both pillars. •      **Automation and systems**: Drive the finance technology agenda; identify and implement automation opportunities across the billing, reconciliation, and reporting cycles. •      **Continuous improvement**: Embed a mindset of process improvement across the function; regularly review how work gets done and challenge the team to find better ways. •      **Transformation delivery**: Lead the finance restructure through to steady state, including the people plan, system improvements, and Order-to-Cash redesign. •      **Cost base management**: Manage the finance budget and ensure the function is appropriately resourced as the business scales. ### WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR We are seeking a candidate with the following qualifications and experience to excel in the Head of Finance role: •      ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualified (essential). •      Significant post-qualification experience in a finance leadership role, ideally within a multi-currency transactional environment. •      Strong technical accounting skills; the go-to person for complex accounting questions, particularly in multi-currency consolidation, revenue recognition, and management reporting. •      Commercial instinct; able to translate financial data into insight that drives business decisions, not just report what happened. •      Proven ability to lead and develop a finance team through a period of structural change; a track record of developing people, not just managing them. •      Demonstrable experience driving automation and process improvement in a finance function; comfortable with finance systems, APIs, and automation tools, and making the case for investment. •      A continuous improvement mindset; someone who is never satisfied with "good enough" and consistently looks for smarter ways to operate. •      Experience managing offshore or distributed finance teams is an advantage. •      Hands-on and willing to operate at both strategic and transactional levels, particularly during the transition period. •      Experience in EOR, staffing, professional services, or a similarly complex billing model (strongly preferred). **WHY WORK WITH US?** It’s simple. We have an incredible team that is invested in our success. Innovation and creativity are at the top of our list of core values, along with compassion, integrity, and a willingness to get the job done. But we’re not just all about work.
