Job description

The role covers day to day accounting for a growing company with several entities: processing supplier invoices and payments, booking accruals, prepayments and fixed assets, reconciling balance sheets, and helping close the books each month. A strong candidate has real general ledger and accounts payable experience, working knowledge of HGB or IFRS, and a solid grasp of VAT and invoice rules. They also take ownership, communicate clearly in English, and help colleagues with expense and card questions.

How it fits the AI era

Much of the routine work, such as invoice coding, matching and exception handling, can be sped up by automation and AI tools, and this role is expected to improve those setups over time. What stays human is checking the machine's output, deciding where the risk is highest, knowing when to ask a tax or accounting expert, and keeping evidence that auditors and regulators can trust.

How it builds AI experience

The company sells a workflow automation platform, so the accountant would likely get to use it on their own finance processes, alongside AI assisted coding in a spend management tool. Someone preparing for this role could sign up for the free cloud version, build a small workflow such as sorting invoices or flagging odd expenses, and practice checking its results against the books.

Worth showing

• GL and AP/P2P experience
• Month end close ownership
• HGB or IFRS and VAT
• Automation or AI workflow example
• Reconciliation accuracy and controls
