Head of Revenue & Recognition

🚀 Welcome to Your Next Adventure!


Snoonu is looking for a Head of Revenue Recognition to own end-to-end revenue recognition and settlement accounting across our multi-country footprint (Qatar, Kuwait, and Oman). This role sits at the heart of Finance — ensuring that complex, multi-rail transaction flows (cash, card, wallet, BNPL, and POS) are recognized, reconciled, and reported in line with IFRS 15 and Snoonu's accounting policies. You will lead a team of finance professionals responsible for daily and monthly reconciliations, partner settlement operations, and cash-flow forecasting, while setting the accounting policy, controls, and governance framework that keep revenue recognition accurate, compliant, and audit-ready. This is a senior leadership role that combines strong technical accounting judgment with the ability to coach a team, present decision-ready reports to Finance leadership, and act as the trusted point of contact for merchants, banks, and auditors.


🛠 What You’ll Get Your Hands On:

  • Own Revenue Recognition & Settlement Operations: Lead end-to-end fund-flow, reconciliation, and revenue-recognition reporting across Qatar, Kuwait, and Oman, ensuring revenue, fees, and merchant liabilities are recognized in accordance with IFRS 15 and managing a team responsible for accurate and timely settlement outcomes.
  • Set Revenue Recognition Policy & Accounting Treatment: Define and maintain the accounting policy and liability mapping that determine how multi-rail transactions (cash, card, wallet, BNPL, POS) are translated into revenue, fees, and merchant liabilities, ensuring consistent application of IFRS 15 across all entities.
  • Translate Business Requirements into Accounting Logic: Partner with Finance Systems and business stakeholders to turn new business and product requirements into documented, well-controlled accounting treatments, reducing reliance on manual spreadsheet processes.
  • Design Controls & Exception Handling: Establish validation controls, exception-management processes, and dispute-resolution workflows (e.g., IBAN validation, eligibility checks) that reduce manual intervention and strengthen the integrity of settlement and revenue data.
  • Govern Recurring Revenue Adjustments: Oversee the calculation, validation, and posting of recurring revenue-impacting items — delivery promotions, canceled-order wallet/bank adjustments, and delivered-order refunds and coverage mapping — across AMS and Odoo ERP.
  • Lead Cash-Flow Forecasting & Payment Prioritization: Link collections, payouts, and merchant liabilities to provide Finance leadership with a decision-ready, working-capital view and a prioritized merchant payment plan.
  • Drive System Migrations & Reconciliation: Lead ERP and platform migrations (e.g., AMS-to-BigQuery-to-Odoo), including reconciliation of balances, resolution of exceptions, and stabilization of new finance workflows.
  • Assess Financial Impact of Product & Marketplace Changes: Partner with Product, Commercial, Operations, and Engineering to evaluate the accounting and revenue impact of new initiatives (e.g., segmented offers, marketplace orders, multi-cart, loyalty programs) and design the resulting accounting treatment.
  • Build Reporting & Dashboards: Oversee reporting and dashboards (Tableau, Power BI, Excel) that give the business real-time visibility into settlement status, reconciliation progress, and revenue-recognition KPIs.
  • Act as Finance Point of Contact: Resolve queries from Accounts Managers, merchants, auditors, banks, and payment partners, and support internal and external audit walkthroughs with accurate, well-documented data.
  • Lead & Develop the Team: Manage workload balancing, coaching, performance follow-up, and hiring input for the Partner Settlement and Revenue Recognition team.
  • Drive Process & Control Improvement: Identify opportunities to streamline revenue-recognition and settlement processes and strengthen financial controls, building team capability so the function works faster and with greater accuracy.

🧙‍♂️ The Magic You Bring

  • Qualified Accountant: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, and a recognized professional accounting qualification (CPA, CMA, or ACCA) is required.
  • Experience: 6+ years of progressive experience in revenue recognition, financial reporting, or partner settlement, including demonstrated experience leading and developing a team; e-commerce, fintech, or marketplace experience is a strong plus.
  • IFRS 15 Expertise: In-depth knowledge of IFRS 15 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) and proven ability to apply it to complex, multi-rail transaction flows (cash, card, wallet, BNPL, POS), including judgment calls on recognition timing and merchant-liability treatment.
  • Technical Accounting Judgment: Strong command of financial reporting standards and internal control frameworks, with the ability to design accounting treatments for new business scenarios and defend them to auditors and stakeholders.
  • Leadership: Proven track record leading and developing a finance team — coaching, balancing workload, managing performance, and building team capability.
  • Stakeholder Management: Confident communicator able to act as the primary finance liaison across Product, Commercial, Operations, and external stakeholders such as auditors, banks, and payment partners.
  • Analytical Mindset: Strong ability to work through complex, high-volume financial data, identify root causes, and make well-supported accounting and business recommendations.
  • Reporting Tools: Proficiency in Excel and familiarity with data-visualization tools (Power BI, Tableau) to review and present decision-ready reporting.
  • Attention to Detail & Compliance: Meticulous approach to accuracy, with the judgment to escalate issues appropriately and uphold compliance with local regulations, IFRS, and Snoonu's internal policies.
  • Adaptability: Comfortable operating across multiple legal entities and countries (Qatar, Kuwait, Oman) in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
