About Bluebox
Founded in 1981, Bluebox is a premier professional services firm in Asia, headquartered in Singapore.

Our business units include Investment Banking, Management Consulting and Digital Transformation. We specialise in offering finance, compliance, tax, and legal services to fast-growing startups and SMEs across Asia.

Bluebox combines 40 years of professional excellence with a modern, technology-driven delivery model — built on structured systems, high ownership, and remote-first collaboration.

Position: Manager (Client or Business Portfolio)
Location: Full-Time Remote

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for a qualified Chartered Accountant with strong leadership, delivery oversight, and management capabilities. As a Manager at Bluebox, will be responsible for end-to-end oversight of a defined portfolio which may include:

Client Engagements (as an Engagement Manager), or
Internal Business Functions (as a Business Manager for HQ).

In both cases, you’ll lead a team of associates, coordinate cross-functional work, and ensure that deliverables — whether client work or internal business operations — are completed accurately, on time, and to Bluebox standards.

This is a full-time leadership role in a high-performance, remote-first environment. It’s ideal for someone who is structured, proactive, and confident managing client service.

Key Responsibilities

Own delivery across your portfolio:

Manage end-to-end execution across all assigned engagements or functions.
Ensure all work is completed accurately, on time, and to Bluebox standards
Track and drive progress across recurring, ad hoc, and deadline-based deliverables
Coordinate with internal subject matter experts to ensure seamless cross-functional delivery
Prevent slippage, unblock bottlenecks, and escalate early when needed

Lead a high-performance associate team

Assign and allocate work across a team of Chartered Accountants and interns
Review output, provide feedback, and coach for continuous improvement
Monitor capacity and performance to ensure consistent, high-quality delivery

Be the primary point of accountability

For Engagement Managers:

Act as the primary point of contact for clients.
Maintain clear communication, manage expectations, and ensure client satisfaction.
Maintain service clarity by staying on top of scopes, deadlines, and change requests

For Business Managers:

Act as the primary point of contact for internal stakeholders or leadership.
Ensure assigned functions run smoothly and consistently.
Build clarity and reliability into internal processes and reporting.

What We’re Looking For

Qualified Chartered Accountant
5+ years post-qualification experience in finance/accounting
Prior experience managing client relationships (preferred)
Proven leadership and team management skills
Strong judgment, problem-solving, and attention to detail
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
Comfort working across multiple systems, functions, and time zones

What You’ll Need to Succeed

A proactive mindset: you take initiative without needing to be told
Ownership of work: you follow through, escalate early, and don’t let things slip
The discipline to manage full-time responsibilities while working remotely
A serious, professional approach — this is a structured role, not a freelance or flexible side gig
Comfort in a high-accountability environment, with the stamina to manage extended work periods
A collaborative, solutions-focused attitude under pressure

Build your skillset: Get hands-on experience with live client work across finance, tax, payroll, legal, HR, compliance, and more — before choosing your area of focus.
