  • Act as a key contact for external stakeholders, including auditors, tax advisors, and regulatory authorities
  • Contribute actively to finance transformation initiatives, with a focus on systems enhancement, automation, and process harmonization

 

A well-established and robust accounting infrastructure is already in place, providing a strong foundation for further optimization, scalability, and efficiency improvements.

 

What are we looking for?

  • University degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (additional certification as a certified accountant is a plus)
  • Several years of professional experience in statutory accounting/general ledger, ideally within the financial services industry or another regulated environment
  • Knowledge of German GAAP (HGB) is a strong advantage, but not a mandatory requirement
  • Sound understanding of end-to-end Record-to-Report (R2R) processes
  • Experience with ERP systems, ideally SAP S/4HANA, and digital accounting solutions
  • High attention to detail combined with a strong ability to understand broader financial and business contexts

 

Interested? This is what we offer you

  • Promise of a good work-life balance
  • 30 days paid leave
  • An enthusiastic and fun team to work with
  • Personal and professional development with access to relevant courses
  • Transport allowance or related benefits like a leased electric bike
  • Pension plan
  • A challenging job in an international and fast-growing company
  • A competitive salary
  • A lot of freedom executing your role and a chance to shape your own career
  • The opportunity to participate in a new, enthusiastic team of likeminded professionals
