Role Overview
Simplify Alpha operates a services/staffing (IDC-type) business model, and this Finance Controller role should be built around the financial mechanics of a people-based, billable-hours business: deal/contract profitability, bench cost management, utilization tracking, and client invoicing tied to time and material or fixed-fee arrangements. The Controller owns close, controls, and compliance for the entity, and partners closely with delivery and account leadership.

Key Responsibilities
Financial Close & Reporting
- Own monthly, quarterly, and annual close, ensuring accuracy and timeliness
- Prepare P&L;, balance sheet, and cash flow statements in line with group reporting formats
- Manage revenue recognition for T&M;, fixed-price, and staff augmentation contracts
- Ensure the entity's numbers roll up cleanly into group consolidation

Utilization & Deal Profitability
- Track billable utilization, bench cost, and realization rates across resources and accounts
- Build and maintain deal/contract-level profitability views (rate card vs. actual cost,



including onshore/offshore cost differentials)
- Monitor bench aging and flag underutilized resources to leadership
- Support pricing decisions on new SOWs and rate card negotiations

Controls & Compliance
- Design and enforce internal controls, including approval matrices, reconciliations, and segregation of duties
- Ensure statutory compliance (tax filings, regulatory returns, and jurisdiction-specific requirements)
- Manage the statutory and internal audit process end to end
- Maintain compliance with Ind AS and US GAAP as applicable, given cross-border staffing arrangements

Intercompany & Transfer Pricing
- Manage intercompany invoicing, particularly around cross-border resource deployment and IC service agreements
- Support transfer pricing documentation and protected harbour positioning for the staffing/services model
- Track cash movement tied to client invoicing cycles and payroll-heavy cost base
