Job description

Lexroomis building the AI platform where legal work gets done. In just over two years, we've grown from zero to €25M ARR, and today more than 20,000 legal professionals across Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Bulgaria rely on Lexroom..
We're backed by $73M from Left Lane Capital, Base10 Partners, and Eurazeo, and we're a team of around 300 builders who move fast, say things straight, and own each outcome.
Our next goal? Become Europe's most-used legal product.

Why Lexroom?

• Shape the Standard: Be part of the team setting the benchmark for legal AI in Europe.

• Work with the Best: Collaborate with exceptional colleagues in a culture that values competence, curiosity, and ambition.

• Deliver Meaningful Results: Your work will directly influence how legal professionals operate—faster, clearer, and more efficiently.

At Lexroom, we leave buzzwords behind. Here, you’ll build something that lasts: a trusted platform, a strong reputation, a new standard for the legal world.

The Role

As we bring accounting in-house and prepare for our first audit, we are looking for an Accountant to build the accounting engine behind our Finance team. You’ll report to our Finance lead and own the process that gets us reliable numbers every month, working with one of the first AI-first accounting platforms adopted in Italy.

Your key responsibilities

• Accounting Internalization: Bring Italian accounting in-house from January, starting with a dry run in December and working with our external accountants through the transition.

• Monthly Close: Own the tasks that get us to a monthly close within 10 business days: invoice registration, bank reconciliations, and pre-close checks.

• AI-First Accounting Tooling: Set up our accounting platform (Light), make sure what goes in and what comes out is right, and push automation further every month.

• Invoicing Control: Make sure every deal is invoiced and every invoice is checked and recorded, increasing the share of invoicing that runs automatically.

• Audit Readiness & International Entities: Keep the books audit-ready and support the accounting setup with local accountants across our European entities.

What we're looking for

• Accounting Experience: 2 to 3 years of hands-on experience in accounting, ideally in a Big Four firm or in a startup or scale-up.

• Monthly Close: Direct experience contributing to monthly closes and reconciliations on tight deadlines.

• Control Mindset: A sharp eye for errors and the habit of checking the numbers before anyone asks.

• Builder & Automation Mindset: You build processes rather than just follow them, and you’re curious about how software and AI can remove manual work.

• Location & Language: Based in or willing to relocate to Milan (hybrid model). Fluent in English and Italian.
