About the Role

A Life by Design is looking for a capable, hands-on Senior Finance Executive to join our Singapore team as we continue to grow.

This role suits someone who has developed strong finance fundamentals within a project-based business and is ready to bring that experience into a growing, entrepreneurial company.

Our work spans design, architecture, procurement, FF&E, manufacturing and project delivery, with multiple projects operating at different stages. We therefore need someone who understands both the day-to-day discipline of finance and the importance of maintaining an accurate financial picture across individual projects.

You will be responsible for core finance operations while working closely with management and project teams to strengthen project financial reporting, controls and visibility.

We are looking for someone who can bring skills and experience to the table, introduce better ways of working where appropriate, and grow with the business —while remaining comfortable getting into the detail and doing the work.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage day-to-day Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable.
  • Maintain accurate accounting records and reconciliations in Xero.
  • Prepare and issue client invoices, including deposits, progressive / milestone billing and approved variations.
  • Track client collections and actively follow up outstanding receivables.
  • Manage supplier invoices, payment schedules and payment preparation.
  • Ensure supplier, consultant, subcontractor and other costs are correctly allocated to the relevant project.
  • Process staff expenses and petty cash with appropriate project / cost allocation.
  • Work closely with project teams to maintain accurate and current project financial information.
  • Prepare and maintain project P&Ls and profitability reporting, including:
  • Contracted revenue
  • Revenue invoiced
  • Revenue collected
  • Project costs incurred
  • Other project-related costs
  • Committed / upcoming project costs
  • Gross profit and expected project margin
  • Maintain visibility over future supplier and project commitments so management has a clear understanding of committed versus available cash.
  • Monitor collections, costs and project cash flow and flag discrepancies or areas requiring attention.
  • Support monthly management reporting and intercompany reconciliations.
  • Assist with GST submissions, payroll processing and IR8A preparation where required.
  • Help strengthen finance processes, reporting and controls as the business continues to grow.

What We Are Looking For

  • Approximately 4–5 years' relevant accounting / finance experience.
  • Experience within a project-based business is strongly preferred.
  • Exposure to industries such as interior design, architecture, fit-out, construction, property, engineering, manufacturing, professional services or similar environments would be valuable.
  • Practical experience with progressive / milestone billing and project accounting.
  • Strong understanding of project costing, gross profit, margin and cash flow.
  • Hands-on experience managing AP, AR, collections and supplier payments.
  • Good working knowledge of Xero and Excel.
  • Comfortable working directly with project teams to obtain, question and validate financial information.
  • Able to identify discrepancies and investigate issues rather than simply process information provided.
  • Commercially aware and interested in understanding how individual projects contribute to the wider business.
  • Organised, accurate and comfortable operating in a fast-moving SME environment.
  • Someone who can bring ideas and experience from previous roles and contribute to improving the way we work.
  • Equally comfortable doing the work today and helping us build better systems for tomorrow.
  • Knowledge of Singapore GST, payroll and IR8A preparation is an advantage.
  • Must already be eligible to work in Singapore.

The Opportunity

A Life by Design is growing, and we see this role growing with it.

We are not looking for someone to simply inherit an existing way of doing things. We value people who bring experience, ask good questions and can identify where processes or reporting could be improved.

At the same time, we are a hands-on business. The right person will be comfortable moving between the detail of day-to-day finance and the bigger picture of helping us build a stronger finance function as we scale.

Working Conditions

Full-time position based in Singapore, Monday to Friday, approximately 9:00 AM–6:00 PM.

Monthly salary: SGD 3,600–4,500, depending on qualifications and experience.

How to Apply

Please send your CV and a short introduction outlining your relevant experience in a project-based business to [email protected].

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
