The posting

HEY THERE

We’re looking for a Senior Financial Controller to join Yazio and take full ownership of our controlling function as we continue to scale. You will bring structure, rigour and depth to our monthly close, accounting operations and internal controls, setting the standard for how controlling operates at Yazio. At our current stage, with around 150 employees, the decisions you make around close architecture and accounting design will have a long-lasting impact and will shape how Finance operates for years to come.

You will own and continuously improve our core accounting and controlling processes, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting and act as the in-house authority on technical accounting topics. Working closely with FP&A, Legal, Operations and external partners, you will support both day-to-day execution and complex accounting questions around new products and transactions.

Let's shape the future of nutrition together and make Yazio the most successful nutrition app worldwide!

This role is 100% remote and open to candidates based in Germany, Spain, Portugal, or the U.K.

YOUR MISSION

- Build, own and drive the monthly close end-to-end, ensuring fast, accurate and well-coordinated financial reporting with Accounting and key stakeholders

- Review and sign off on accruals, cut-off entries, reconciliations and reporting packages for Management and FP&A

- Act as the primary go-to for technical accounting questions, supporting new business models, contracts and complex accounting treatments

- Develop and maintain technical accounting documentation and position papers (for example, revenue recognition, capitalization, leases and other complex topics)

- Manage and coordinate external partners including accountants, tax advisors and auditors, ensuring strong documentation quality and smooth collaboration

- Continuously strengthen internal controls by spotting anomalies, following up on open items and improving control effectiveness over time

- Drive process and system improvements to reduce manual effort, increase close efficiency and build scalable, well-documented workflows

- Use AI tools to support analysis, variance explanations, audit preparation and accounting research—while ensuring full critical review and accountability for outputs

- Build a modern, scalable finance function through automation, standardization and continuous improvement

YOUR PROFILE

- Several years of hands-on experience in Accounting, Controlling or Financial Reporting, ideally in fast-scaling environments with increasing complexity

- Prior experience leading or coordinating a small accounting team is a plus

- In-depth knowledge of German HGB; IFRS exposure is a plus

- Proven ownership of the full monthly close cycle, ensuring accuracy, completeness and high-quality reporting end-to-end

- Strong internal controls mindset with the ability to proactively identify risks, design controls and continuously improve processes

- Advanced DATEV skills and confidence working with accounting systems and financial data

- Comfortable using AI tools to enhance productivity (for example, research, documentation, anomaly detection, reporting support) while applying strong critical judgment on outputs

- Structured, documentation-first working style with a strong focus on audit readiness and transparency

- Strong drive for process improvement with a sharp eye for inefficiencies and scalable solutions

- Proven stakeholder management skills, with experience collaborating with external accountants, tax advisors and auditors

- Growth mindset and a proactive approach to staying up to date with changes in accounting and tax regulation (e.g., HGB, VAT and IFRS)

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.
