Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This finance shared services leadership role stands out in SaaS because it sits at the operational core of a subscription software business with global reach. Genesys Cloud is positioned as an enterprise platform, which typically brings recurring revenue mechanics, multi-entity reporting, and control expectations that differ from project-based or transactional businesses. The remit across India controllership, treasury, and statutory compliance reflects the kind of regional finance ownership common in scaled SaaS organizations.
From a SaaS career perspective, the role offers durable experience in running a close and reporting cadence that supports product-led and sales-led motions, while maintaining SOX-aligned governance. Managing intercompany activity, transfer pricing coordination, and audit readiness builds fluency in how distributed SaaS companies structure shared services and standardize finance processes across countries. Systems exposure across modern ERPs and close tooling also translates well across cloud software companies where automation and control design are ongoing priorities.
This position is best suited to finance leaders who prefer structured accountability, enjoy balancing stakeholder support with control rigor, and want a remit that mixes people leadership with hands-on oversight. It will fit someone comfortable operating in a matrix, partnering with a reporting lead outside the local office, and navigating both corporate and local regulatory demands.
