What We Stand For

• People First – our team comes first. We want every Flanker to feel at home, engaged, and part of something bigger.

About The Role

As our new FP&A Specialist, you'll take full ownership of Flanks' day-to-day accounting operations — from monthly closings and tax filings to financial reporting — while laying the groundwork for our internal FP&A function. You'll report to our Head of Finance and work closely with People, Sales, and AP to keep our numbers accurate and our reporting sharp. It's a hands‑on role for someone ready to grow from pure accounting into forward‑looking financial planning as Flanks keeps scaling.

• Run the end‑to‑end monthly closing process and consolidate costs to meet Finance team deadlines.
• Prepare and file taxes (IVA, retenciones, Sociedades, etc.), keeping us fully compliant locally.
• Own the financial reporting plan and lead preparation of financial statements and management reports.
• Monitor financial performance against budget and contribute to FP&A processes and forecasting.
• Interact directly with clients and investors to troubleshoot billing issues and resolve financial queries.

What we'd love to see

• 3+ years of professional experience in accounting or as a Financial Controller, ideally at a fast‑growing scale‑up, a Big 4 firm, or an accounting firm.
• A bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Finance, or Accounting.
• In-depth knowledge of IFRS and/or Spanish GAAP (PGC).
• Advanced Excel/Sheets skills.
• Experience with ODOO or another ERP and hands‑on tax filing experience (Modelos 111, 303, 200) — a plus.
• Comfortable using AI and automation tools to streamline financial processes — a plus.
• Language Proficiency: Professional proficiency in both English and Spanish to collaborate effectively in our bilingual environment.

What we offer

• We offer what we think is fair compensation
• A full‑time, permanent contract.
• A cool office between Sants Estació and Plaça Espanya with stunning views of Barcelona.
• Flexible working hours and hybrid work options.
• Paid day off on your birthday.
• Weekly fresh fruit, coffee, and tea on tap.
• Friday happy hours after our all‑hands meetings (totally optional, of course!).
• Team‑building events to bond and have fun.
• Health insurance and flexible compensation with Alan.
• A digital canteen with Kombo.
• A yearly training budget to keep growing.

We aim to keep things moving fast—ideally wrapping things up in one to four weeks.

At Flanks, we believe in fostering diversity and inclusion across everything we do. We're proud to be an equal opportunity employer, and we welcome all applications regardless of race, religion, gender, age, or disability status.

Additionally, we have an Equality Plan in place to ensure fairness and inclusivity in all our policies and practices.
