Accounting Manager - Capital

Job Description

• Be uniquely you, come as you are
• Finance / Asset Management Services
• Hybrid working - we value our people

Are you a highly commercial financial professional with a passion for asset lifecycles, capital governance, and driving process transformation?

Endeavour Group Business Services is seeking a dynamic Accounting Manager - Capital to lead the day-to-day operations and deliverables of our capital accounting team. Managing an annual capital investment portfolio of ~$500m spanning Hotels, Retail, Corporate Support Office, and Pinnacle, this is a high-visibility role. Because of the scale and materiality of our investment program, your insights and management will directly support frameworks highly scrutinised by the Group's Audit & Finance Committee.

Serving as the critical link between our onshore stakeholders and offshore execution teams, you will provide strategic direction and oversight to an offshore capital accounting team while championing a continuous improvement and transformation agenda

Sound good? Read on.

Here is a taster of what you can expect in this role:

Stewardship & Continuous Improvement (IAS 16 Compliance)

• Lead the application of IAS 16 and other relevant accounting standards to guarantee precise classification, recognition, and measurement of property, plant, and equipment.
• Act as the organizational expert on our Group Capitalisation Policy, providing definitive guidance on capital expenditure (CapEx) versus operating expense (OpEx) distinctions.
• Oversee the accuracy of depreciation and amortization schedules (including tax), manage the end-to-end process for asset disposals, write-offs, and impairment testing, and ensure the Fixed Asset Register (FAR) reflects physical reality.
• Coach and upskill our offshore team to build both their technical capabilities and their Endeavour business acumen.

Financial Control & Audit Readiness

• Own the month-end close process for capital accounting, ensuring all journals, reconciliations, and reporting packages are completed to an elite standard.
• Perform complex reconciliations between the General Ledger, Tax Ledger, and the FAR, proactively resolving variances.
• Lead the coordination of internal and external audit requirements for fixed assets, maintaining a robust internal control environment (SOX or local equivalent compliance).

Strategic Partnership & Stakeholder Management

• Act as the primary finance partner to the Capital, Property, and Formats teams, providing financial clarity on project spend.
• Deliver transparency on Work-in-Progress (WIP) aging and capital project status, flagging risks regarding budget overruns or delays in "ready for use" dates.
• Support compelling business cases for new capital investments by analyzing historical data and providing technical accounting impact assessments.

 

Qualifications

Now let’s talk about you: 

• 7+ years experience within Finance, Shared Services, or Global Business Services.
• At least 3 years specifically dedicated to overseeing a capital accounting function.
• Professional accounting qualification is mandatory (e.g., CA, CPA, or CIMA).
• Proven experience working with major ERP systems, specifically SAP S/4 HANA, Great Plains, and/or Dynamics 365.
• Highly desirable experience managing offshore or outsourced shared service delivery models with a history of driving high business satisfaction.
• An ability to achieve operational excellence and continuous improvement through corporate governance and influence rather than direct mandate
• Advanced, current knowledge of fixed asset standards and framework compliance.
• A commitment to maintaining risk mitigation processes and delegated authority limits.
• Highly skilled in auditing complex capital data sets to catch anomalies or potential misstatements early
