Many days there’s nothing to do and I just wait for the clock to hit 6 lol. Day to day just review excel, PowerPoint and word documents. Call a few vendors and make sure things are going ok.
But many things are standard templates and form just need to check the numbers were updated from source correctly.
Once every two weeks I “work” from home but it’s basically do nothing and just watch / Netflix. But if people need help they will ping me and I will go help with my expertise.
Quite chill la, you will need some time to adjust getting used to it after slogging to 3am in audit peak haha.

What jobs are you guys doing? Accounting manager? Bank operations? Procurement exec (since you mentioned vendor)? Your hours and pay is basically my dream career goals, I don't care about having a condo so I don't need insane pay, I just want enough to afford a HDB and pay for my hobbies.
Genuinely want to know because I don't really have any friends or family doing this well to advise on these kind of things. Some even think audit 5k pay is peak career achievement which I frankly disagree.
