Finance & Accounting Manager

POSITION SUMMARY

Lions Bot USA is seeking a Finance Manager to own the full finance and accounting function for our North American subsidiary. This is a critical role at a pivotal moment — we are actively restructuring and scaling our U.S. operations, building out our sales organization, service infrastructure, and dealer network, and we need a finance professional who can build the financial foundation the business runs on while also delivering the analytical insight that drives our decisions.

The Finance Manager is the most senior finance professional in the U.S. organization and serves as the primary financial partner to the President. This person will be responsible for financial close and reporting, gross margin and profitability analysis, pricing support, accounts receivable and collections, new customer credit review, statutory compliance across all U.S. states, and ongoing coordination with the Lions Bot International finance team in Singapore.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on finance professional who can operate independently, build from scratch, and communicate clearly to non-finance executives. This is not a role for someone who needs to inherit an established function — it is an opportunity for someone who thrives on ownership and wants to build something meaningful.

This role reports directly to the President of Lions Bot USA. For two specific areas — Group statutory reporting (excluding U.S. local statutory requirements) and cash flow management — the Finance Manager takes functional direction from the Head of Finance, Lions Bot International, in Singapore. This dual-accountability structure reflects Lions Bot's global operating model and requires someone who is comfortable working within it.

• Own the full month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close process and deliver a clean management package — P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, actuals vs. budget, and variance commentary — to the President by WD4, and to the Singapore HQ finance team no later than WD4, ensuring Singapore has adequate runway to complete Group consolidation on their side of the calendar

• Prepare and present quarterly management packs and support executive presentations to global Lions Bot leadership

• Attend weekly coordination calls with the Lions Bot International finance team in Singapore and maintain alignment on reporting formats, timelines, and intracompany requirements

• Publish financial statements according to deadlines and complete all monthly, quarterly, and annual closings

• Prepare weekly financial health and sales reports for the President and U.S. leadership team

• Build and maintain gross margin reporting by product, channel, and customer segment — delivered monthly alongside the close package

• Conduct customer contract profitability reviews on a defined cadence and flag unprofitable arrangements to the President with a clear recommendation

• Provide financial analysis to support pricing strategy decisions as Lions Bot USA evolves its product line, MSRP structure, and dealer channel model

• Identify cost reduction and efficiency improvement opportunities across the business and support profitability-focused decision-making

• Manage the full AR cycle — invoicing, collections follow-up, and aging review — with a target DSO aligned to company cash flow requirements

• Review all new customers for creditworthiness before contract execution and recommend appropriate payment terms and credit limits

• Escalate overdue accounts to the President with a clear status summary and recommended next action; maintain zero write-offs due to process failure

• Ensure timely accounts receivable payments…
