  • Month-End Close: Execute comprehensive month-end close activities, including accruals, prepaids, and intercompany eliminations.

  • Multinational Compliance: Maintain compliance across Swiss AHV/BVG and Mexico SAT/CFDI; manage intercompany loans and support audit PBCs.

  • Systems & Automation: Support audits and help implement, optimize, and standardize financial systems and processes, including revenue recognition, subscription billing, and deferred revenue tracking.

Must-have
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.

  • Prior experience in an Assistant Controller, Senior Accountant, or similar role, preferably within a technology, SaaS, or high-growth company.

  • Strong foundation in accounting and financial reporting, including general ledger management, month-end close, and financial statement preparation under relevant standards (US GAAP or IFRS).

  • Advanced proficiency in spreadsheets and financial analysis tools, with a dedicated focus on SQL, PowerQuery, and Python abilities to manipulate data and drive process efficiency.

  • Excellent collaboration skills, able to present financial data to non-finance stakeholders.

Nice-to-have
  • Professional certification (e.g., CPA, CMA, or local equivalent) or progress toward certification.

  • Practical technical experience or awareness of PowerBI, Power Automate, Zapier, and n8n.

Why Join?
  • Flexible work hours and hybrid work options (combining on-site collaboration with the flexibility to work from home part of the week).
