Job Description

Who we are

Intrepid Asia is a leading Ecommerce and Digital Solutions Provider in South East Asia. We offer end-to-end omni-channel ecommerce management, Livestreaming, Video production & Affiliate Management for Social Commerce plus full funnel Digital Marketing Services and advanced Market Intelligence, all powered by state of the art inhouse Technology to our client base of leading international brands across all key marketplaces and social platforms in all 6 SEA countries. Brands love our regional presence, our excellent data-driven and growth-focused services which are enabled by the strongest team in the industry, and our advanced marketing and tech capabilities.

We are growing rapidly and as the exclusive partner of Flywheel in SEA, we offer many exciting opportunities to work with leading brands across multiple categories and key industry players. By joining us, you will work on the cutting edge of digital and social commerce in SEA, and experience what it takes to drive a successful ecommerce business end-to-end.

The team you will be part of

As Intrepid's Centre of Excellence (COE) scales, we are looking for a senior Assistant Finance Manager to act as the Deputy to the Head of Finance COE, based in Thailand. Given Thailand's scale within the region, this role anchors the COE's in-country presence — leading the Thailand-based COE team and owning the integrity of Thailand's transactional finance operations (AP, AR, GL, NetSuite).

Statutory tax positions and audited financial statement sign-off remain with Thailand Country Finance (the Acct & Tax Manager and Head of Finance TH), who hold the business visibility required for sign-off. This role's ownership is the transactional engine that feeds into it — ensuring the numbers Country Finance relies on are complete, accurate and audit-ready.

Key Responsibilities

  1. Transactional integrity & ledger ownership (core scope)
  • Own the quality, completeness and accuracy of Thailand Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and General Ledger processing and NetSuite records — this is the role's primary accountability.
  • Drive a disciplined, on-time month-end close for Thailand's transactional books, with proper cut-off and accruals.
  • Own Accounts Receivable health — ageing, collections and unbilled — and margin claimback (brand / platform recovery) processing end-to-end.
  • Ensure every balance-sheet account tied to transactional processing is supported by a proper schedule, with unsupported items resolved on a timely basis.
  1. Team leadership (COE Thailand)
  • Line-manage the Thailand-based COE team (AP, AR, GL); review and approve their work as first-line quality control.
  • Build capacity and capability within the Thailand COE team; own performance management and development.
  • Route quality issues and process feedback into the COE Vietnam feedback loop, closing the loop on recurring defects.
  1. Technical compliance execution (process layer, not tax authority)
  • Execute technical compliance processes for withholding tax, VAT invoice matching, and other statutory-linked transactional workflows.
  • Support the Acct & Tax Manager and interim / year-end audits by providing complete, well-supported transactional evidence.
  • Work closely with the COE in Vietnam to ensure processes are applied consistently and issues between country and COE are resolved without delay.
  • Support standardisation and continuous improvement across the shared-service model, including automation initiatives.

Not responsible for: interpreting Thailand tax positions, signing statutory filings, or signing off audited financial statements. These sit with the Acct & Tax Manager / Head of Finance TH, who has the business visibility required for sign-off.

Requirements

  • Minimum 7 years' (or more) relevant accounting / finance experience, with a strong, demonstrable technical foundation across AP, AR and GL.
  • Proven experience managing or supervising a team, with the ability to build capability and hold direct reports accountable.
  • Experience in a shared-service or Centre-of-Excellence environment — comfortable liaising with a centralised processing team and managing the country–COE relationship.
  • Working knowledge of Thailand tax and statutory compliance processes (execution level); regional exposure an advantage.
  • Hands-on experience with a major ERP (NetSuite an advantage) and confident with reconciliations and month-end close.
  • Proactive and always on top of the numbers — chases issues down early and does not let receivables, reconciliations or open items drift.
  • Detail-oriented and control-minded, with a track record of clean books and few errors.
  • Able to operate at a senior level — lead a team, take ownership, make decisions, and communicate confidently with country finance, the COE and the business.
  • Fluent in Thai and English.
  • Professional accounting qualification (CPA or equivalent) preferred.

What Success Looks Like

  • Thailand AP, AR and GL are consistently accurate, supported and error-free — owned end-to-end by this role.
  • Month-end close is completed on time, with proper accruals and cut-off.
  • Accounts Receivable and claimbacks are current, well-tracked and reconciled — nothing left to drift.
  • The COE Thailand team is well-led, with quality issues caught before they reach country finance or audit.
  • The Acct & Tax Manager / Head of Finance TH can rely on transactional data being complete when forming statutory positions and signing the audited FS — without needing to chase COE.
  • A smooth, low-friction working relationship between Thailand, the COE and the business.

Benefits

In return, you will be getting

  • Join an all-star Finance team which continues to raise the bar, with systems and processes (and company stability) at the level of sophistication of a small multinational, but with a 'start-up' spirit of innovation and continuous improvement in an ever-evolving world
  • In terms of learning opportunities, our organization is second to none. You will get to work on a variety of business models across many different clients as if we are 5 companies in one, and everyone is involved in projects to drive further improvement.
  • Regional teams and country Finance teams collaborate closely to ensure all finance aspects of our business are optimized, giving you a wide exposure and enhanced learning curve in a close-knit and supportive team
