Accountant

You'll look after the accounts for a business that works in more than one country and more than one currency. The directors want a clear, up to date view of where things stand, and you'll give them that. We use Xero and Zoho, and we want someone keen to use AI tools to cut down the routine work and build dashboards that are easy to read. 

ABOUT INTERIORS WITH ART 

Interiors With Art has been designing and building luxury homes, palaces and hotels for 24 years, for private clients around the world. We've recently opened offices in Delhi and Chennai and set up a joint venture with Sotheby's International Realty India, and the team here is growing quickly. Behind the scenes we're changing how the business runs too. We build a lot of our own technology and we want people who'll help us keep improving how we work. 

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR 

We like people who question things. If something has always been done one way and you can see a better way, we want to hear about it. It's a fun team to be part of and people work hard. Things move quickly because we're growing and changing at the same time. 

We're happy to try new software, and if it makes the work better or quicker, we keep it. There's not much hierarchy and very little corporate process, so ideas get heard whoever they come from. You'll work with the team both in India and abroad
