As a Senior General Ledger Accountant, you will own the close and reporting for the German parent entity, prepare statutory financial statements, and support audits while maintaining accounting practices across multiple entities.

Responsibilities

• Support both IFRS and local statutory audits by preparing audit request documentation, providing clear, complete evidence, participating in walkthroughs, and resolving auditor questions
• Run the group close cadence by maintaining the close calendar, improving checklists and guardrails, and keeping dependencies and handoffs clear across entities
• Act as an escalation point for complex GL topics and non-standard transactions, partnering with stakeholders to resolve issues and documenting accounting conclusions in a way others can reuse
