The posting

The Senior Finance Manager – Financial Reporting leads the Group’s financial reporting function across RISE PH, Synacy, and affiliated entities.

  • Oversee accounting for network CAPEX: capitalisation of fibre build, construction-in-progress, CPE, and network equipment; useful-life reviews, impairment testing, and asset retirement
  • Ensure GL-to-subledger reconciliation of fixed assets and CPE inventory across regional warehouses

Audit support, controls, and governance

  • Support the statutory audit led by the Group’s audit manager by providing timely, complete financial reporting deliverables and resolving reporting-related audit queries
  • Prepare financial statement schedules, reconciliations, and PBC items within the financial reporting scope; address audit adjustments affecting the financial statements
  • Implement corrective actions on management letter points relating to financial reporting
  • Design, document, and maintain internal controls over financial reporting, including review controls, segregation of duties, and close checklists
  • Support internal audit, due diligence, lender, and investor reporting requirements as needed

Multi-jurisdiction compliance

  • Ensure timely and accurate statutory reporting to the SEC (AFS, GIS), BIR, and other regulators, including PEZA/BOI where applicable
  • Coordinate reporting requirements across Group entities, regional branches, and foreign affiliates or counterparts, including group reporting packs prepared under different local requirements
  • Support regulatory reporting to the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and other industry bodies, where financial data is required
  • Monitor regulatory and accounting developments across jurisdictions and advise the Group Financial Controller on their impact

Leadership and process improvement

  • Lead, coach, and develop the financial reporting team; set goals, review work, and manage performance
  • Drive close automation, ERP optimisation, and reporting process improvements to shorten the close cycle and improve accuracy
  • Partner with FP&A, Tax, Treasury, Billing, Network/Engineering, and Procurement to ensure complete and accurate financial data
  • Provide ad hoc analysis and reports to the Group Financial Controller and senior management
