The Assistant Financial Controller supports the hotel’s Financial Controller in managing accounting operations, financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, internal controls, audits, and statutory compliance. Candidates are generally expected to hold a degree or professional qualification in accounting or finance, with relevant experience in hotel or hospitality finance. Strong knowledge of accounting standards, financial systems, month-end closing, and management reporting is important. The role requires accuracy, integrity, commercial awareness, and the ability to analyse financial performance. The successful candidate should communicate confidently with department heads, meet deadlines, maintain confidentiality, and help ensure that Shangri-La’s financial policies and control procedures are consistently followed.

Its portfolio includes the Shangri-La, Kerry, JEN, and Traders brands, serving both luxury and lifestyle travellers.

The company’s Hong Kong presence also offers access to a major regional headquarters and hospitality market.
Hong Kong offers strong opportunities in luxury hotels, finance, banking, professional services, retail, technology, logistics, and international business. English is widely used professionally, while Cantonese is valuable for daily life and local customer-facing roles; Mandarin is also useful. The culture combines Chinese traditions, international influences, efficient services, busy urban districts, and excellent food. Lifestyle options range from high-rise city living and shopping to beaches, hiking trails, islands, and country parks. Housing is expensive, so many newcomers share apartments or live outside the central districts for better value. Eligible overseas professionals generally require an employment visa sponsored by a Hong Kong employer, with applications assessed on qualifications, experience, and whether the role is difficult to fill locally. Before relocating, candidates should confirm visa sponsorship, medical insurance, accommodation support, tax arrangements, and working hours. Public transport is extensive, reliable, and convenient.
