Reporting functionally to the Asset Management Continental Europe CFO and locally to the CEO of HSBC Investment Funds Luxembourg (HIFL), you will head the Finance function for HIFL, the HIFL Ireland Branch and the HIFL UAE Branch. You will ensure consistently high standards of financial control, reporting and executive insight.

• Own end-to-end statutory reporting: prepare IFRS financial statements aligned to Asset Management standards and maintain strong ledger integrity, including oversight of postings to the HIFL ledger.
• Direct the audit cycle end-to-end, coordinating auditors to meet all deliverables on time and to a high standard.
• Drive a robust balance sheet and cost base: ensure reconciliations are complete and well-evidenced; oversee operational budgets for fund ranges; maintain accurate accruals and invoice governance, keeping forecasts aligned to business changes.
• Provide effective financial stewardship and risk oversight: submit local regulatory returns; validate management fee calculations and intercompany payaways to ensure fair revenue allocation across AMG sites; act as TPEM and/or Risk Steward for suppliers where applicable.
