<p>We are looking for an ambitious, systems-minded, and hands-on <strong>Senior International Accountant (m/f/d)</strong> to spearhead our international financial operations and serve as a key driver of our global accounting and operational controlling infrastructure.</p>
<p>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 &amp; 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.</p>
<p><strong>What you'll be doing</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>International Entity Ownership: </strong>Drive full end-to-end accounting, month-end closes, and year-end close preparations for our growing international entities (US Inc. &amp; UK Ltd.) under local GAAP (US/UK GAAP) and HGB alignment.</li>
<li><strong>Operational Controlling: </strong>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.</li>
<li><strong>LucaNet &amp; Systems Engine:</strong> Maintain and optimize LucaNet for technical group consolidation, entity alignment, and data hygiene, while streamlining daily workflows across Payhawk, QuickBooks, and Sage.</li>
<li><strong>Transfer Pricing &amp; Intercompany:</strong> Execute monthly transfer pricing calculations and ensure clean cross-entity intercompany recharges and reconciliations.</li>
<li><strong>AR/AP &amp; Cash Management: </strong>Manage international AR/AP, payment runs (enforcing 4-eye controls), dunning workflows, and client onboarding finance checks for US and UK operations.</li>
<li><strong>Audit Support &amp; Backup:</strong> 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.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>You will thrive in this role if</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Experience: </strong>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.</li>
<li>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.</li>
<li><strong>Language Skills: </strong>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.</li>
<li><strong>Tool &amp; System Expertise:</strong> You are highly proficient with modern financial toolstacks—specifically LucaNet, Payhawk, QuickBooks, or Sage.</li>
<li><strong>Pragmatic &amp; Self-Driven:</strong> 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.</li>
<li><strong>Detail &amp; Process Mindset:</strong> You take pride in structured work, enjoy documenting processes (SOPs), and balance speed with high numerical accuracy</li>
