The Role
We're hiring a hands‑on Accounting Specialist to own end‑to‑end accounting and core finance operations for a multi‑entity group operating across multiple jurisdictions. This is an operator role: you'll be accountable for audit‑ready books, disciplined controls, and compliant reporting across crypto and fiat activity, working closely with leadership. Some operational details will be shared later in the process (and under NDA where required).

Key Responsibilities
Accounting & Close (End‑to‑End Ownership)

Own the monthly/quarterly/year‑end close across entities, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timeliness

Maintain the general ledger: journal entries, accruals, prepaids, FX revaluation, and supporting schedules

Run a standard close calendar and checklist; drive the close to completion with clear deadlines and accountability

Maintain a monthly exceptions queue (missing invoices, unidentified flows, stale reconciliation items) and clear it consistently

Keep documentation audit‑ready by default (organized evidence chain and clean support for every material balance/transaction)

Multi‑Entity Accounting & Intercompany

Own bookkeeping across all entities; ensure consistent policies, coding, and documentation standards

Maintain clean intercompany operations: invoicing, intercompany reconciliations, and balances (including interest accruals where applicable)

Support arm's‑length and related‑party hygiene with clear narratives and support (agreements, approvals, invoices, and reconciliations)

Crypto Accounting & Reconciliation (Must Be Strong)

Lead end‑to‑end crypto transaction accounting across wallets, exchanges/custodians, networks, and tokens

Ensure crypto balances are reconciled and supported with strong audit trails (wallet addresses, transaction hashes, exchange statements, etc.)

Maintain clear classification rules for crypto flows (e.g., revenue vs other income, custody transfers vs external payments, gas/fees, staking/yield, airdrops, liquidity provision)

Maintain schedules for realized vs unrealized gains/losses and cost basis/lots where needed for reporting and CPA support

Controls, Compliance & Governance

Implement and maintain finance controls appropriate for a lean team (approvals, segregation of duties where feasible, documentation standards)

Maintain a compliance calendar (in partnership with external advisors) and ensure recurring obligations are tracked and supported

Coordinate with external accountants, auditors, tax providers, and legal counsel to support multi‑jurisdiction requirements

Reporting & Leadership Support

Deliver clear, management‑ready reporting: P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and concise variance narratives

Produce burn reporting and spend insights (top vendors/categories, drivers, and recommendations for savings and efficiency)

Support budgeting and forecasting cadence (annual budget + rolling forecast; budget vs actual with variance explanations)

Treasury & Cash Visibility

Maintain visibility across fiat accounts and crypto holdings; support payment operations with strong authorization and recordkeeping

Produce regular cash/treasury reporting (balances, upcoming obligations, runway snapshot, and operational risk flags)

Requirements

6+ years in accounting/controllership/finance operations roles, with end‑to‑end ownership of close and reporting

Prior experience in web3/crypto companies, exchanges, or crypto‑heavy operations - Mandatory

Strong technical accounting foundation (IFRS/GAAP‑level knowledge relevant to the role)
