Monta connects hardware, software, businesses, and drivers into one seamless charging ecosystem. Our mission is to make charging simple, reliable, and scalable for everyone.

Monta is a company of builders. We move fast, break friction, and use AI to multiply output. No politics, no fluff - the best idea wins, always.

We're looking for a Director of Finance who's ready to roll up their sleeves and own group financial control end to end. You will be reporting to our UK based CFO and be a key member of his leadership team.

• Group Financial Control & Close
  • Own the group month-end close process, driving toward a faster and more predictable close
  • Hold sign-off authority on accounting treatment across entities, including VAT and revenue recognition judgment calls
  • Own group consolidation and inter-company eliminations across multiple entities and currencies
  • Oversee payroll, AR and AP management
  • Own bank reconciliation and cash visibility across the group's banking partners and currencies
  • Set and enforce posting controls and chart-of-accounts policy across the group

• Manage and develop the wider group accounting team including third party book keepers, with multiple direct reports
• Drive the automation and streamlining of our processes whilst ensuring strong financial controls
• Partner closely with FP&A on forecast-to-actuals reconciliation and board reporting inputs
• Technical ownership of the company ERP system. It is a plus if you have evaluated ERPs or have led an ERP transition

• Act as the primary point of contact for our external auditors (PwC), driving audit readiness and closing out requests on time
• Drive AI adoption across finance, we have made huge strides and are AI native, and we want you to continue that
• Own transfer pricing compliance and documentation across group entities
• Bring technical accounting judgment to strategic finance projects as Monta evolves, for example new entity structures or evolving revenue recognition needs
• Lead technical accounting input on product development such as invoice generation and VAT engine
• Own statutory audit and group compliance across all entities

• Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent), with significant post-qualification experience and a track record of managing a team
• Experience managing a diverse team across geographies
• Comfortable bringing technical accounting knowledge to cross-functional and strategic projects, not just running the close
• Demonstrable experience building and managing bespoke finance solutions with AI and a bonus if you have led an ERP migration
• Skilled at running a tight, predictable month-end process
• Transfer pricing and multi-entity or group consolidation experience
• SaaS and/or fintech experience is a strong plus
• Experience in a regulated financial services environment (e-money, payments, or similar) is a strong plus
• Bonus if you speak Danish as our HQ is in Copenhagen

• Git Hub Copilot / Claude Code
• ChatGPT / Gemini / Claude
• Notion AI (docs, knowledge, meeting notes)
• Analytics & ML:
  Langfuse, PyTorch, Mastra
• AI-enhanced testing & monitoring (e.g., generative QA, Grafana ML)

We don't expect mastery of all — but we expect comfort learning, experimenting, and adopting AI responsibly.

• Real authority. You'll own group-level financial control for a scaling EV-charging platform, with real sign-off authority from day one.
• Ownership from day one. All Monta employees are owners of the company and part of the journey.
• The people are extraordinary. You'll work directly with senior finance leadership. We believe we do the best when we are together and so we are in the office 3 days a week driving the business.
• Build the function, don't just run it. You're joining while the close process is actively being modernized. What gets automated and rebuilt from here is yours to decide, not inherited from someone else's playbook.
