- Contribute to the harmonization, standardization, and automation of finance processes across Europe, supporting the rollout of the new Finance Operations & Tax organization

- Partner closely with FP&A, Billing, and operational teams, and act as a reliable backup for the direct manager to ensure continuity of key finance and tax activities

**About You**

- 3+ years of experience in an accounting firm (in audit, accounting, or advisory)

- Strong foundations in accounting, financial statements, and financial reporting

- Experience with IFRS and multinational environments is a strong advantage

- Knowledge of Croatian and/or Serbian accounting and tax regulations is a strong plus

- Comfortable navigating between group standards and local statutory requirements, with a solid analytical mindset and attention to detail

- Fluent English (working language); Serbian or Croatian language skills are a strong plus

- Autonomous, entrepreneurial approach with a strong sense of ownership, adaptability, and team spirit

We recognize that everyone carries a unique set of valuable skills and experiences. If you think you could have an impact even though you don't meet 100% of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply. We want to hear from you!
