The Person We Are Looking For
Because this role handles financial information requiring a high degree of reliability, we particularly value someone who is:
- Meticulous and thorough — checks work carefully rather than assuming it is correct.
- Strong in accounting fundamentals — understands the reason behind an accounting treatment rather than merely following previous practice.
- Responsible and dependable — owns tasks through to accurate and timely completion.
- Analytical — notices inconsistencies and investigates discrepancies rather than overlooking them.
- Organised — able to manage recurring deadlines and competing priorities systematically.
- Teachable and receptive to supervision — receives questions, corrections and feedback professionally and acts upon them.
- Collaborative and respectful — able to work closely with another Finance colleague, supervisors and non-finance colleagues without becoming defensive when views differ.
- Patient and service-oriented — recognises that Finance serves the wider organisation while also safeguarding proper financial controls.
- Communication and professionalism– able to communicate financial matters clearly, courteously and professionally.
- Independent and discernment– able to work independently while knowing when to consult or escalate matters.
Christian Commitment
As OMF Singapore is a Christian mission organisation, the successful candidate should be a committed Christian who is able to support OMF’s Christian ethos, mission and values and who regards good financial stewardship as part of faithful Christian service.
We particularly value the biblical qualities of integrity, humility, faithfulness, teachability and serving others well.
