Company Overview
Join a dynamic, fast-growing, institutional investor backed professional services group with an international footprint spanning multiple regions including North America, Europe, and Asia. The organization delivers a range of advisory, financial, fund administration, and asset servicing solutions to corporate, institutional, and fund investor clients globally.
They're on an exciting growth trajectory and as part of that, building a brand-new Finance shared services hub right here in Kuala Lumpur.
