About the role

As an Apprentice Accountant at Ogury, you will work closely alongside our Senior Accountant in France, gaining hands‑on experience across a range of core finance activities that keep our operations running with accuracy and rigour.

This is a role built for someone who wants to learn by doing. You will take real ownership of accounts payable processes, support month‑end close activities, and collaborate with colleagues across Sales, HR, and other departments to ensure financial processes are followed correctly and on time. You will be working with modern finance systems including Yooz and NetSuite, giving you valuable exposure to the tools used in a fast‑moving, global business.

If you are detail‑oriented, eager to build a strong foundation in accounting, and looking for an environment where you can grow quickly with the support of an experienced team, this is the perfect place to start your career.

Why you'll love this role

• Genuine, hands‑on exposure to end‑to‑end accounting processes from day one — not just observation, but real ownership and accountability.
• Direct mentorship from a Senior Accountant who will invest in your development and help you build the skills that matter most early in your finance career.
• Part of a collaborative, international finance team at a high‑growth adtech company, giving you insight into how finance operates in a global business.
• Practical experience with industry‑leading tools including Yooz and NetSuite, highly valued across the finance profession.

What you will be doing

• Ensure appropriate purchase orders and supporting documentation are in place before organising vendor invoices into our financial systems.
• Capture and record vendor invoices via Yooz into NetSuite, matching them to the relevant purchase orders in a timely and accurate manner.
• Prepare payment batches in line with established timelines and execute approved electronic payments through the banking portal.
• Proactively manage the vendor email inbox, providing timely responses and resolutions to supplier queries.
• Assist with expense report validation, system entries, and payment posting throughout the month, and support efforts to improve the efficiency of the expense process.
• Complete cash and credit card transaction entries regularly in the financial system.
• Prepare journal entries required for month‑end completeness.
• Perform bank and credit card reconciliations and post accordingly.
• Run the fixed assets module, including additions, write‑offs, and depreciation.
• Support the preparation of VAT returns.
• Liaise with the Sales team to ensure adherence to the T&E policy, and coordinate with HR on staff flow tracking and meal voucher management.

What you will bring to Ogury

• Currently studying towards an accounting, finance, or related qualification, and looking for an apprenticeship to apply your learning in a real‑world setting.
• Strong attention to detail — you understand that accuracy in finance is non‑negotiable and take pride in producing clean, reliable work.
• A collaborative and communicative approach, with the confidence to work across departments and build effective relationships with colleagues at all levels.
• A genuine curiosity for how financial systems work, with an eagerness to get to grips with tools such as Yooz and NetSuite.
• Good organisational skills and the ability to manage recurring tasks and deadlines without losing focus on quality.
• A proactive attitude — you spot issues before they become problems and are always looking for ways to do things better.
• Fluency in French is essential; a good level of English is required to collaborate with our international teams.

We believe in taking care of our team members and providing a work environment that supports both professional growth and personal well‑being.

• A dynamic, international working environment.
• Hands‑on experience within a global workplace function.
• Exposure to real operational, compliance, and employee experience topics.
