Accounting Manager — Bangkok, Thailand
(Or Assistant Accounting Manager — title and compensation will fit experience)
Sarnies Group · Full-time · Office-based, Phaya Thai
The Opportunity
We're a multi-entity group running F&B, hospitality, and tech businesses across Thailand. Our accounting function handles the full range — bookkeeping, compliance, payroll, and reporting across all entities — and we're building the systems layer on top: custom Xero automations, POS and ordering system integrations, and internal tools that make the whole thing run tighter.
We're hiring an Accounting Manager — or a strong Assistant Accounting Manager ready to step up — to own a portfolio of our entities. Full compliance, reporting, and a small team to lead. Title and compensation will reflect the right fit.
What You'll Own
- Full Thai accounting compliance for your entity portfolio — Revenue Department filings, VAT, withholding tax, statutory submissions
- Statutory signoff and auditor relationships for the entities you own
- Monthly close, management accounts, and reporting up to senior finance leadership
- Leading your team — raising standards, improving workflows, building a culture that's precise and adaptable
- Living in Xero — clean reconciliations, helping us spot what should be automated. Our tech team builds the integrations — you scope, prioritise, and own the finance side
- Working closely with our POS, ordering, and inventory systems — you'll be the finance voice in how data flows and reconciles
- Using AI tools actively — for drafting, research, workflow automation, and wherever else they save time
What We're Looking For
Non-negotiables:
- Thai national with strong knowledge of Thai accounting standards, Revenue Department rules, and statutory compliance
- 5–10 years of relevant experience — could be audit into industry, or a strong finance/accounting generalist who's owned compliance end-to-end
- CPA (Thailand) — required for Accounting Manager candidates; AAM candidates actively working toward CPA are welcome
- Fluent Thai and strong written/spoken English — you'll work with the team in Thai and with senior leadership in English
- Comfortable with Xero, or someone who'll get fluent fast
- Genuine comfort using AI tools day-to-day — not someone who's heard of them, someone who uses them
The mindset:
- You see process gaps as problems to fix, not things to inherit
- You're technically solid enough to be trusted by an auditor and credible enough to lead a small team
- You communicate clearly and directly — with peers, your team, and senior leadership
- You're excited by the idea of building a finance function, not just running one
What This Is Not
This isn't a steady-state corporate role. If your pitch is years served and seniority earned, this probably isn't the right fit. We want someone mid-career with the appetite to build something, not just run it.
Compensation
- Accounting Manager: 90,000 – 110,000 THB/month
- Assistant Accounting Manager: 70,000 – 90,000 THB/month
Performance bonus and compensation review at 12 months based on impact. Standard benefits — health insurance, annual leave, and social security.
Reporting
Reports to our senior finance leadership. Flat structure — real access, real accountability.
