The Assistant Finance Manager supports financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, month-end closing, management accounts, cash-flow monitoring and project cost control. The role typically requires a degree in accounting, finance or a related discipline, professional accounting qualifications or progress toward them, and several years of relevant experience, preferably in construction, engineering or a project-based business. Candidates should be comfortable with accounting systems and Excel, understand Hong Kong financial and tax requirements, and communicate effectively in English and Chinese. Leighton will expect strong analytical ability, accuracy, integrity, confidentiality and the ability to meet deadlines while working with project teams, auditors and senior management.

Leighton promotes structured project management, safety, quality, sustainability and collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.

Hong Kong is a compact, highly connected international business centre with strong opportunities in finance, construction, engineering, property, technology, logistics and professional services. Cantonese is widely spoken, while English is common in business and government; Mandarin is also useful. Life is energetic and convenient, with excellent public transport, dense urban neighbourhoods, coastal areas, hiking trails and diverse food. Housing can be expensive, particularly in central districts, so many workers consider Kowloon or the New Territories. Eligible professionals normally need an employment visa sponsored by their Hong Kong employer, with qualifications, experience and a confirmed offer assessed by immigration authorities. New arrivals should arrange accommodation, health insurance, banking and an identity card after approval. Hong Kong is not technically an island-only location, but Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories form one integrated territory.
