Senior Accountant (Group Accounting - UK, CZ, US, PT)

With teams and legal entities across the UK, the Czech Republic, Portugal, and the US, we’re scaling rapidly, and our finance team is growing in tandem with us. We’re not just keeping the books, we’re building the systems and processes that will support Ventrata for years to come, including streamlining accounting and reporting and rolling out a new ERP system (Sage Intacct) in partnership with a top accounting firm.

We’re looking for a Senior Accountant who wants more than routine accounting. You’ll dive into technical accounting across our international entities while helping enhance processes and workflows to make daily accounting and reporting smoother. This hands-on role gives you exposure to group reporting, consolidation, and audits, working closely with the Controller and external advisors. You’ll have plenty of room to learn, take ownership, and grow as the company scales.

This role is a fit for someone who wants to go beyond transactional accounting, is ready to dig into the details, optimize accounting processes, and help build a finance team that can scale with the business.
