Your primary focus will be on teaching the Accounts Payable process and its connection to the broader Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) cycle in our Career Accelerator Programme (CAP).

• Facilitate hands-on workshops and lead classroom discussions that encourage critical thinking.
• Assess student progress, provide constructive feedback, and maintain accurate performance records.
• Act as a mentor, providing valuable advice on accounting career paths and further education opportunities.
• Collaborate with the Programme Administrator and SME Lecturers to create interdisciplinary learning experiences.
• Stay current with the latest accounting standards, practices, and educational technologies.

What We're Looking For (Qualifications & Skills):

Required:

• A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field OR a professional certification (e.g., CPA, CMA, ACCA).
• Proven experience teaching or training at a high school, college, or corporate level.
• Strong foundational knowledge of accounting principles, particularly the Accounts Payable and Procure-to-Pay cycles.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and public speaking skills.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (advanced Excel skills are a plus) and familiarity with educational technology.
• A mentoring mindset with the ability to adapt content for learners of varying skill levels.

Preferred (Assets):

• Corporate accounting experience is a significant advantage.
• Published research or articles in the field of accounting.
• Teaching certification or licensure.
• Strong understanding of current accounting software platforms.

If you are ready to inspire the next generation of accounting professionals, we would love to hear from you. Please apply with your resume and a cover letter detailing your relevant experience and teaching philosophy.
