You’ll play an important role in:

• preparing appropriate financial journals and reconciling your entities’ accounts with respect to period end close deadlines
• preparing local financial statements, engaging with our external auditors, and providing high-quality audit documentation as part of our annual audit wheel
• reporting on legal entities for group reporting purposes (IFRS) and maintaining a high-quality control environment
• driving the continuous optimisation of processes, specifically in connection with month-end closing and our reporting systems, and involvement in ad hoc projects.

• have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in accounting, controlling, or similar (ACA-qualified)
• are fluent in both spoken and written English
• are a highly competent user of the Microsoft Office suite, incl. Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint, and have experience with financial accounting and reporting software, preferably SAP and Hyperion

• thrive in a changing environment, take responsibility, self-driven and can work independently while also enjoying collaborating with colleagues across teams and national borders.

Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
