Accountant

We are seeking to recruit an experienced Accountant to strengthen financial oversight, governance, and reporting across our international subsidiaries. This role will play a central part in driving consistency, accuracy, and financial discipline throughout the Group. This is not a traditional accounting position; it is ideally suited to a commercially minded professional who is confident working across multiple entities, challenging financial information, improving controls, and elevating reporting standards within a dynamic international environment.

 Key Responsibilities

• Review and assess sales contracts, ensuring appropriate accounting treatment and alignment with Group policies

• Determine and enforce revenue recognition in line with applicable standards

• Actively request, challenge, and validate financial and operational data from subsidiaries

• Ensure timely, accurate, and complete reporting across all entities

• Drive consistency in processes, documentation, and controls across the Group

• Identify gaps and implement improvements to strengthen the overall control environment

• Debt Management Oversight

• Monitor outstanding receivables across subsidiaries

• Drive focus and accountability on debt collection efforts

• Challenge local teams on overdue balances and ageing profiles

• Propose and support solutions to improve cash flow, including factoring or other mechanisms where appropriate

• Strong accounting background with solid understanding of financial reporting and revenue recognition

• Fully qualified accountant (ACCA or equivalent), or holder of a recognised university degree in Accountancy, with 3–5 years of relevant experience.

• Solid understanding of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and their practical application across financial reporting and compliance.

• Comfortable working across multiple entities and interacting with international teams

• Confident in challenging information and holding stakeholders accountable

• Highly organised, with the ability to follow through and ensure deadlines are met

• Proactive mindset with a focus on improving processes and controls

• This role requires more than technical ability. We are looking for someone who:

• Takes ownership and drives outcomes

• Is not afraid to ask questions or push back when needed

• Can operate with a high level of independence

• Is focused on building structure, discipline, and control across the organisation

• Excellent command of English is required. German language skills would be considered a plus.
