Our business is built on the belief that our people are what make EnerMech excellent. When we are thriving globally it's not just about investing in our infrastructure, service offering and technology, but by also investing in our people.

  • Lead preparation and coordination of statutory financial statements, external audits and regulatory filings for the geography, working with Group Finance and external advisers as required.
  • Coordinate tax compliance and tax accounting requirements, including forecasting tax liabilities and supporting corporate, indirect, payroll and other local tax matters with specialist advisers and Group Tax.
  • Manage the finance control environment, including control testing, remediation, policy compliance and delivery of training where required.
  • Act as an escalation and approval point for core finance activities, including FX revaluation, non-PO invoices, credit notes, vendor reconciliations, account clearing and payments, in accordance with authority levels and segregation-of-duties requirements.
  • Partner with Treasury and the business on cash management, customer collections, vendor payment planning, liquidity forecasting and working-capital improvement.

Experience Requirements

  • Professional accounting qualification (e.g. CA, ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CPA or equivalent).
  • Substantial post-qualification experience in financial control, reporting or a comparable senior finance role, ideally within a multi-entity or international organisation.
  • Demonstrated ownership of month-end close, balance sheet control, statutory reporting, audit and internal controls.

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.
