Financial Controller

THE WORK

The Financial Controller acts as the senior accounting officer in charge of financial reporting, general ledger accuracy, and control measures across Hidden Road's OTC operating entity and its BVI offshore entities.

• Digital Asset Accounting — Apply ASC 820 and ASU 2023-08 for crypto asset fair value measurement; reconcile on-chain/off-chain positions with Custody and Operations; monitor evolving SEC/FASB/IASB guidance.
• Management Reporting — Produce monthly management accounts, variance analysis, and board/investor packages; support budgeting, forecasting, and CFO ad hoc analysis.
