About the Role

As a Junior Accountant at Ogury, you will be at the heart of our financial operations, supporting the accuracy and efficiency of the processes that keep our global business running smoothly. Sitting within the Finance team, you will own a broad portfolio of responsibilities — from accounts payable and treasury management through to VAT compliance, fixed asset oversight, and month-end close activities.

This is a hands-on, detail-oriented role that requires someone who can operate with precision across multiple workstreams simultaneously. You will play a key part in supporting our German and Swiss entities through procurement administration via our Yooz platform, and will work cross-functionally with colleagues across departments to ensure expenses and supplier payments are handled accurately and on time.

The ideal candidate is organised, proactive, and takes pride in the quality of their work. If you thrive in a fast-paced, international environment and want to contribute to a finance function that is scaling alongside a high-growth adtech business, this could be the role for you.

Why you'll love this role

  • You’ll gain broad exposure across the full finance operations spectrum — from AP and treasury through to VAT, fixed assets, and month-end — giving you a strong and varied foundation to grow your finance career.
  • You’ll work closely with teams covering the German & Swiss regions, building strong cross-functional relationships in a truly international business.
  • You’ll be trusted to own your workstreams from day one, with real accountability for outcomes that matter to the business.
    You’ll join a collaborative, ambitious finance team within one of adtech’s most innovative and fastest-growing companies.

What you will be doing

  • Covering Ogury's German & Swiss regions.
  • Process and manage incoming invoices accurately and in a timely manner, maintaining and reconciling the creditors ledger.
  • Run weekly supplier payment cycles and resolve any queries from the AP inbox.
  • Post and reconcile bank transactions on a regular basis.
  • Maintain and update short-term cash flow forecasts to support financial planning.
  • Review postings and support the preparation of VAT returns.
  • Post and allocate customer receipts accurately across accounts.
  • Perform monthly reconciliations of the fixed asset register and manage additions, disposals, and sales of fixed assets in line with company policy.
  • Review and approve Purchase Requests and Purchase Orders in our Yooz platform, specifically for Germany and Switzerland, and monitor and resolve system sync errors between Yooz and NetSuite.
  • Review exceptional expense claims, manage the reimbursement process, and complete fortnightly employee expense runs within agreed timelines.
  • Conduct T&E analysis to support business reporting.
  • Complete bank reconciliations and ensure all bank statements are accurately saved from NetSuite.
  • Post accruals, prepayments, fixed asset depreciation, and amortisation schedules.
  • Support the wider finance team in ensuring all month-end tasks are completed on time and to a high standard.

What you will bring to Ogury

  • Solid experience in a finance operations or accounts role, with hands-on exposure to AP, treasury, and month-end processes.
  • Strong attention to detail and a high degree of accuracy — you understand that the numbers matter and take pride in getting them right.
  • Excellent time management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple workstreams and meet recurring deadlines without dropping the ball.
  • A collaborative and communicative style — you work well with colleagues across departments and are comfortable liaising with external suppliers and outsourcers.
  • Familiarity with ERP and expense platforms.
  • A proactive and curious mindset — you look for ways to improve how things work and don’t wait to be told.
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, international environment with cross-border responsibilities (DEU & CHF experience is a plus).
  • Confident communicating in both English and German, written and spoken, to support effective collaboration with colleagues and stakeholders across our German-speaking markets.
