About The Position

At HOLY, we like big ambitions and bold flavors - but delivering on them requires a rock-solid financial foundation. We are looking for a GL Accounting Manager who brings structure, accuracy, and ownership to our day-to-day accounting operations.

For us, accounting isn't just about keeping score; it is the basis that gives us the confidence to move fast. Your mission as our GL Accounting Manager is to keep our general ledger reliable, clean, and ready for decision-making. You will support a smooth month-end and year-end close, ensure postings and reconciliations are accurate, and help translate operational accounting into dependable financial reporting.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is confident in core accounting work and wants to grow into broader ownership over time.

Responsibilities

• Maintain the general ledger: Own defined GL accounts end-to-end, including postings, reconciliations, documentation, and follow-up on open items.
• Support the close: Prepare month-end and year-end close tasks such as accruals, prepayments, reclassifications, and balance sheet reconciliations.
• Apply accounting logic: Review unclear or unusual bookings, ensure the Chart of Accounts is used consistently, and elevate topics where accounting treatment needs alignment.
• Partner with AP, AR, and FP&A: Work closely with operational accounting and FP&A so accounting data is timely, reliable, and useful for reporting.
• Improve daily workflows: Spot recurring issues, document practical fixes, and help build simple SOPs that make the close faster and more scalable.
• Support reporting and audits: Prepare schedules, documentation, and explanations for statutory reporting, tax topics, and external audits across our entities.

About You

• Degree or Ausbildung in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, Tax, or a comparable qualification.
• 2+ years of relevant accounting experience, ideally in general ledger accounting, audit or tax advisory.
• Good knowledge of German GAAP (HGB) and core accounting principles; experience with multi-entity setups is a plus. Initial experience with VAT-related matters is an advantage.
• You are confident with reconciliations, accruals, prepayments, and month-end close routines.
• You are comfortable working with accounting systems and Excel/Google Sheets; DATEV experience is a plus.
• You bring a pragmatic, reliable, and detail-oriented working style and are not afraid to follow up until open items are resolved.
• You communicate clearly with Finance teammates and non-finance stakeholders in English; German is a strong plus, especially for invoices, auditors, tax advisors, or authorities.

Mindset

• You are structured, detail-oriented, and hands-on.
• You enjoy making numbers clean, understandable, and reliable.
• You take ownership of your workstreams and follow topics through until the accounting treatment is clear.
• You’re comfortable digging into postings, reconciliations, and accounting logic until things make sense.

In today's job market, A-players have many options to choose from. As part of our offer, we prioritise providing a productive working environment and opportunities for growth. In addition to competitive compensation, including company shares, you can expect:
