Finance Analyst, Financial Control & Reporting

About the Role

We are looking for a driven early-career finance professional to join our Financial Control & Reporting team at Malaysia's first AI-powered licensed digital bank. This is a rare opportunity to build core finance capability from the ground up in a fast-moving, digitally native banking environment — rather than inheriting legacy processes at an established institution.

You will gain hands-on exposure to financial reporting, regulatory compliance, and ERP-driven finance operations, working closely with senior finance leadership on real deliverables from day one.

• Strong academic record with a solid grounding in accounting principles
• Progress towards or interest in pursuing a professional qualification (ACCA, CPA, CIMA, ICAEW, or equivalent) is an advantage
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel; familiarity with ERP systems is a plus
