Your mission as a Senior International Accountant

We are looking for an ambitious, systems-minded, and hands-on Senior International Accountant (m/f/d) to spearhead our international financial operations and serve as a key driver of our global accounting and operational controlling infrastructure.

In this pivotal role, you will take full end-to-end ownership of our expanding international entities (US Inc., UK Ltd.) and bring key financial processes in-house. Working hand-in-hand with our Team Lead Group Accounting & Controlling, you will drive data accuracy across our software stack (QuickBooks, Payhawk, LucaNet, Sage), handle monthly transfer pricing calculations, lead operational variance analyses, and serve as a reliable backup for our European operations (Spain). You will be the technical engine ensuring our global finance structure scales smoothly and stays compliant.

What you'll be doing

  • International Entity Ownership: Drive full end-to-end accounting, month-end closes, and year-end close preparations for our growing international entities (US Inc. & UK Ltd.) under local GAAP (US/UK GAAP) and HGB alignment.
  • Operational Controlling: Own operational controlling (Actual vs. Budget variance analysis) for the US and UK entities to ensure complete data integrity prior to team lead sign-off.
  • LucaNet & Systems Engine: Maintain and optimize LucaNet for technical group consolidation, entity alignment, and data hygiene, while streamlining daily workflows across Payhawk, QuickBooks, and Sage.
  • Transfer Pricing & Intercompany: Execute monthly transfer pricing calculations and ensure clean cross-entity intercompany recharges and reconciliations.
  • AR/AP & Cash Management: Manage international AR/AP, payment runs (enforcing 4-eye controls), dunning workflows, and client onboarding finance checks for US and UK operations.
  • Audit Support & Backup: Support with schedules and documentation for international audits (e.g., UK audit), while serving as a qualified backup for Spanish entity accounting (SLU) when needed.

You will thrive in this role if

  • Experience: You bring 3–5+ years of progressive professional experience in international accounting and controlling, ideally within a fast-paced scale-up, tech company, or international corporate environment.
  • International Accounting Standards: You have solid hands-on experience with multi-entity accounting and local standards (US GAAP, UK GAAP, or Spanish GAAP). Experience with intercompany transactions and transfer pricing is a strong plus.
  • Language Skills: You are fluent in English (C1/C2 level) as your primary working language AND have solid working proficiency in Spanish (B2+ level) to support our Spanish entity backup.
  • Tool & System Expertise: You are highly proficient with modern financial toolstacks—specifically LucaNet, Payhawk, QuickBooks, or Sage.
  • Pragmatic & Self-Driven: You possess a strong self-starter mindset. When facing a new software or process, you dive in, figure it out, and build a clean solution independently.
  • Detail & Process Mindset: You take pride in structured work, enjoy documenting processes (SOPs), and balance speed with high numerical accuracy

Kind reminder: Please ensure that your application is submitted in English.

This post not only outlines our ideal candidate but also serves as an inspiration for what this role can evolve into. Even if you consider yourself an 80% fit but have a genuine passion for this position, we encourage you to apply. We're eager to hear from individuals who share our enthusiasm.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
