Job description

Your Role

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented accounting professional to join our finance team supporting an SGX-listed Real Estate Investment Trust (“the REIT”) and its Special Purpose Vehicles (“SPVs”). Reporting into the finance leadership team, you will play a hands-on role across financial reporting, regulatory compliance, and the day-to-day accounting that underpins a listed trust and its cross-border property portfolio.

This is a broad, high-exposure role that offers direct interaction with Trustees, auditors, tax agents and overseas finance teams (U.S. / EMEA), and a clear runway to grow into budgeting, forecasting and committee-level reporting.

What You'll Do

  • Financial reporting: prepare the full set of accounts for the SGX-listed REIT and its non-listed SPV entities, and support periodic and ad hoc financial reporting.
  • Finance operations: manage day-to-day accounting — journal entries, payments, month-end close, and variance analysis — and assist with group consolidation.
  • Regulatory submissions: prepare and support corporate tax, GST and other statutory and regulatory filings to SGX, MAS and IRAS.
  • Stakeholder management: liaise with overseas finance teams (U.S. / EMEA) and external parties including the Trustee, auditors, tax agents and the unit registrar.
  • Controls & compliance: ensure compliance with SGX, MAS, corporate and statutory requirements, and maintain strong internal controls and adherence to group policies.
  • Transactions: assist with pre- and post-acquisition processes, including tax structuring, funds-flow coordination, and aligning acquired financials for consolidation.
  • Projects: participate in system implementation and other ad hoc finance initiatives.
  • Growth scope: depending on experience, the role may extend to budgeting and forecasting, and participation in Audit and Risk Committee reporting over time.

What You Will Bring

  • Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or equivalent. Minimum 3–5 years of relevant accounting experience, or Big Four candidates at the associate or senior level looking to join the commercial sector are welcomed to apply.
  • Technical strength: strong working knowledge of accounting principles and practical application of IFRS.
  • Delivery under pressure: proven ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple priorities while delivering high-quality, accurate work.
  • Mindset: proactive, solutions-oriented and positive, with meticulous attention to detail and excellent organisational skills.
  • Collaboration: a team player who also works well independently and across functions, levels and geographies.
  • Advantageous: experience with the Yardi system and prior accounting experience in REITs or real estate companies.
