Financial Reporting Lead

Department: Controllership Location: KSA Description About Tabby: Tabby is on a mission to give people power over their money. For too long, financial systems have worked for the institutions that built them, not the people using them. Runaway interest, fine print and limited access have left many behind, feeling shut out of a system that wasn't setting them up for success. We're building a different kind of system—in a complete money app to send, spend and save. One that's clear, flexible and puts people and businesses in control. Founded in 2019, we serve customers and businesses across Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. Millions of customers and 65,000 global brands, government services and small businesses rely on us today. What began as a better way to pay at checkout has grown into a financial system working the way it should have all along. About the role: We are looking for a Financial Reporting Lead to support finance operations for our Saudi Arabia entity, ensuring accurate financial reporting, regulatory compliance, and strong financial governance. This role will support and oversee statutory reporting, tax compliance, treasury, audits, and internal controls while partnering closely with cross-functional teams to support business growth and new product launches. As a key member of the finance team, you will help strengthen finance processes, maintain compliance with SAMA, ZATCA, SOCPA, and IFRS requirements, and contribute to building a scalable finance function in one of our fastest-growing markets. Key Responsibilities • Own and deliver the monthly, quarterly, and annual close for KSA, ensuring accuracy, timeliness (D+3 target), and completeness. • Prepare IFRS financial statements with local (SOCPA) adjustments, along with supporting schedules and reconciliations. • Apply IFRS (esp. IFRS 9, 15, 16) and SOCPA standards correctly in the financial statements, and keep accounting positions well documented. • Prepare and support ZATCA filings (CIT, Zakat, VAT, WHT, CTDF) and SAMA regulatory/prudential returns, ensuring they reconcile to the financial statements. • Perform balance-sheet reconciliations and maintain the integrity of the general ledger. • Support provisioning and ECL calculations under IFRS 9 for customer and merchant receivables. • Support external audits — prepare audit-ready financials with complete documentation and act as a key contact for auditors on reporting matters. • Maintain and strengthen internal controls, reconciliations, and segregation of duties across reporting processes. • Support treasury and settlement reporting and related reconciliations (bank accounts, merchant settlements). • Support intercompany and transfer-pricing reporting in coordination with Group Tax. • Drive process improvements and support ERP (Oracle NetSuite) reporting, data integrity, and automation. • Mentor and review the work of junior finance team members. • Partner cross-functionally with Compliance, Legal, Product, and Operations to support finance readiness for new product launches (wallet, BNPL, cards, remittance, loyalty/cashback). Skills, Knowledge and Expertise • 3–5 years of experience in financial reporting, statutory reporting, or external audit, preferably in a fintech, bank, or Big 4 environment. • Strong technical knowledge of IFRS (esp. IFRS 9, 15, 16) and SOCPA/local GAAP, with working knowledge of Saudi tax regulations (Zakat, Corporate Income Tax, VAT, Withholding Tax). • Hands-on experience preparing IFRS financial statements with local adjustments and running month-end close. • Experience supporting statutory audits and regulatory submissions to authorities such as ZATCA and SAMA. • Professional qualification (CPA, ACCA, or SOCPA) — qualified or in progress preferred. • Advanced Excel skills; ERP experience preferred (Oracle NetSuite is a plus). • Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and an ownership mindset. • Fluent in English and Arabic (written and verbal). Job Benefits • A working environment that gives you autonomy and responsibility from day one. • You should be comfortable with the idea that the quality of your work will influence the shape of your career. • Participation in the company’s employee stock options program. • Health Insurance • Flexi Perks: A monetary benefit that gives you the freedom to use it as you choose—whether for health and well-being, education and professional development or travel needs!
