Multitasking is normal, and sometimes, your skills or natural talents will be leveraged to support other business priorities.

Leadership & Process Governance People Management: Direct leadership of a team of Cost Verification Executives; responsible for upskilling the team from "checkers" to "analysts."

Stakeholder Negotiation: Act as the bridge between Finance and Operations to resolve any discrepancies and hold vendors accountable to contractual terms. 2. Financial Analysis Cost Forensics: Apply an FP&A lens to cost control—not just recording what was spent, but analyzing in accordance with operational needs. Margin Protection: Identify recurring leakage and work cross-functionally to improve unit economics across different Teleport entities. Strategic Reporting: Transition from cost forensics to providing cost related dashboards and high-level analytical summaries. 3. Budgeting & Strategic Planning Operations Budgeting: Assist in the preparation of annual operation budgets Budgetary Control: Assist with monitoring of actual spend against approved budgets of operation costs Planning Support: Provide data-driven insights to help the business forecast future logistics costs as we expand 4. Month-End & Financial Accuracy Monthly Accruals: Assist with month-end accrual process for operational costs AP Integrity: Manage the end-to-end verification logic within the Accounts Payable process, ensuring the team clears discrepancies before they impact the bottom line. Audit-Ready Reporting: Maintain high standards of documentation for all cost-control activities to ensure seamless internal and external audits. Requirements Professional Qualification: Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting/Finance. ACCA, CIMA, or CPA (partial or full) is highly preferred. Experience: 3–5 years of professional experience in Finance or Accounting. Domain Expertise:  Proven experience in FP&A or Cost Accounting, with the ability to interpret data beyond the ledger. Foundational knowledge of the Accounts Payable (AP) cycle. Logistics/Supply Chain experience is a significant advantage Technical Rigor: An analytical mind that thrives on forensic data investigation and process mapping.
