Provide technical guidance to junior team members and review deliverables for quality and consistency, communicating feedback clearly and constructively. Ensure accurate alignment between statutory and corporate reporting (local GAAP vs. US GAAP bridge). Partner with regional finance and controllership teams to resolve complex accounting or audit issues, communicating effectively across time zones, cultures, and levels of seniority. Drive process improvements, automation, and standardization across statutory reporting activities. Support implementation of new accounting standards or corporate initiatives impacting statutory processes. Maintain a strong control and documentation framework to ensure audit readiness and compliance. Contribute to continuous improvement and transformation initiatives within the global statutory reporting network. Independently plan, sequence, and track deliverables across multiple entities and stakeholders, escalating risks to deadlines early and proactively. Who You Are Who You Are Required Qualifications University degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (ACCA, CPA, or similar certification highly preferred). 5+ years of progressive experience in statutory accounting, audit, or financial reporting in a multinational environment. In-depth knowledge of IFRS and local GAAPs across EMEA. Proficient in Microsoft Excel and experienced with SAP or equivalent ERP systems. Excellent time management skills, with a demonstrated ability to manage multiple entities, prioritize competing deadlines, and deliver consistently in a high-volume, fast-paced environment. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly convey complex accounting matters to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including senior leadership and external auditors. Strong analytical mindset, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple entities under tight deadlines. Strong stakeholder management skills across diverse teams and geographies. Proven ability to work independently and drive deliverables in a complex, fast-paced environment. Preferred Qualifications Prior experience with Big 4 auditors or large multinational companies. Exposure to cross-border statutory audits and group consolidation processes. Demonstrated experience leading process improvement or automation initiatives.
