for our client in Dubai.

We do not need a traditional "bean counter." We are seeking a commercially aggressive, CIMA-qualified Management Accountant who thrives in operations.

Your primary mandate is to protect our margins, optimize our stock movements, and provide the CEO with forward-looking, actionable data.

Track, analyse, and report on the movement of high-value inventory across multiple international borders and warehouses.

Identify slow-moving stock and recommend liquidation or reallocation strategies.

·

Design, build, and maintain robust Management Information Systems (MIS).

You must translate raw data into clear, concise daily/weekly dashboards for the CEO, highlighting cash flow, margin erosion, and operational bottlenecks.

· Commercial Forecasting:

Build dynamic financial models for upcoming agricultural seasons.

Forecast cash flow requirements for bulk purchases, freight costs, and delayed payment cycles typical in emerging markets.

· Margin & Pricing Analysis: Evaluate landed costs (including freight, customs, and demurrage) versus local market selling prices to ensure profit margins are protected before a single container is shipped.

·

Act as the financial bridge between logistics, sales, and the CEO.

When a supply chain issue arises, you will model the financial impact of the "Plan B" immediately.
