Senior Accountant

Looking for your next big move in logistics? This won’t be your typical logistics job, and we’re not your typical forwarder. At MPL, we think beyond the container and always go one step further in everything we do. How? By living the mission, not just executing the job. With a unique mix of logistics services, real and personal advice, we make things happen. Now, we’re looking for our next hero to level up our finance team of our office in Saudi Arabia. You in?

As our Senior Accountant, you’re the guardian of financial integrity and a trusted partner to the business. You ensure that every number tells the right story — accurate, compliant, and meaningful. From general ledger to reporting, from VAT and Zakat filings to management insights, you take ownership of the full accounting cycle.
You go beyond routine accounting work. You bring structure to complexity, streamline processes, and strengthen internal controls. You spot risks before they become issues and turn data into actionable insights that help management steer the business in the right direction.
With your strong technical background and understanding of local regulations, you make sure our operations meet both Saudi compliance standards and international expectations. You work closely with colleagues across departments and regions — supporting the company’s growth with reliable financial information and sound advice.

What you’ll be doing

• Manage all general ledger activities and ensure timely monthly and annual closings.
• Prepare full financial statements (Balance Sheet, P&L, Cash Flow) in line with IFRS and SOCPA.
• Handle VAT and Zakat declarations and ensure full compliance with local regulations.
• Coordinate with auditors and strengthen internal controls.
• Manage Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable processes, reconciliations, and petty cash.
• Process payroll and related provisions.
• Prepare management reports, conduct variance analysis, and support budgeting and forecasting.

Knowledge is power

At MPL, we turn knowledge into action. Who are we looking for?

• You have 4–8 years of experience in accounting, ideally within freight forwarding or logistics in Saudi Arabia.
• You know your way around IFRS (as endorsed by SOCPA) and local tax regulations (Zakat and VAT).
• You’re fluent in English — Arabic is a strong plus.
• You have strong analytical skills and advanced Excel know-how.
• ERP systems like SAP, or Microsoft Dynamics don’t scare you — they empower you.
• Integrity, precision, and ownership define your way of working.
• You take initiative, anticipate issues, and find solutions before others notice there’s a problem.
• You’re organized, detail-oriented, and cool under pressure.
