Senior Accountant – Client Advisory

Company Description

Role Description

• The Senior Accountant – Client Advisory is a full-time, on-site role based in Doha, Qatar, managing a portfolio of SME clients and serving as a trusted point of contact for their financial reporting and advisory needs.
• This is not a transactional accounting role.
• Day-to-day bookkeeping is largely automated — client data flows through our portal and is processed within our ERP-driven platform, with reporting delivered through our analytics tools.
• Your focus is oversight, integrity, and advisory: ensuring the numbers are right, and helping clients use them to grow.
• In this role you will:
• Manage a portfolio of SME clients as a key finance advisor.
• Review the work of data analysts, answer their technical queries, and support their development.
• Oversee bank reconciliations, period-end completion, and the accuracy and integrity of client financial data processed through our platform.
• Review and validate financial statements and management reports before they reach clients.
• Hold monthly client meetings to discuss financial performance, surface risks, and identify growth opportunities.
• Support clients with budgeting, forecasting, and cash-flow planning, translating financial data into actionable business insight.
• Ensure compliance with applicable accounting standards, tax regulations, and internal controls, and support audit and documentation needs.

Qualifications

• 3–5 years of accounting experience, ideally with some review or mentoring exposure.
• Strong technical accounting foundation: financial statement preparation, reconciliations, and period-end close.
• Ability to advise clients or management and translate financial data into business insight.
• Experience working with cloud-based ERP and automated finance workflows, plus advanced Excel and reporting/BI tools.
• Sound knowledge of accounting standards, and internal control and audit support.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a high standard of accuracy and attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to explain financial information to non-finance business owners.
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; professional certification (CMA) preferred.
• Based in or able to relocate in Doha, Qatar.
