We Are Looking for accountants to Join us

Numbers are part of every finance job. What makes the difference is what you do with them, and who you do it with.

Here, you work in-house for the Teamleader Group, close to the people behind the numbers, with real ownership of your part of the books and no timesheets. The finance team is dedicated and keeps investing in automation and AI to work smarter. And what the team delivers matters: the Board's numbers start with yours.

You report to the Accountant Lead and work closely with the Controllers and the Payroll team.

As an accountant at Teamleader you:

- Keep the books moving. Purchase invoices, bank transactions, creditor payments, expense notes, intercompany bookings, general ledger entries and VAT declarations, with bank statements and balance sheet accounts reconciled so our records stay accurate.

- Close the month, together. With the Accounting team and the Controllers, you deliver a full analytical P&L, a consolidated balance sheet and the monthly reporting deck for Management and the Board. The team often sits together during the close, because Controlling can't move forward until Accounting does.

- Prepare for year-end and audit. You work with our external accountants, auditors and tax advisors to keep us compliant with local accounting and tax standards.

- Make it better. In a fast-growing company there's always something to improve. You spot it, you speak up, and you help make it happen.
