AI in this role
Senior financial accountant role requiring the use of AI tools to drive productivity and improve processes through automation.
Build with us
Since 2004, we've had one clear goal: to make payments and money management effortless for every business in Europe.
Today, more than 250,000 companies use Mollie to get paid, manage money and grow – with products designed to be simple, scalable, and dependable.
With 950+ Mollies across 14+ locations, we care deeply about autonomy and craft. So we work in small teams, with real ownership, and we trust you to make the right decisions.
We're building for the long term, so we provide the tools you need, processes you can rely on, and a balanced work environment to help you do work you're proud of.
Sound like your kind of place? Let's build together.
Your impact
In this role, you'll take ownership of some of Mollie's most complex accounts, including revenue, cost of sales, provisions and taxes, and lead regulatory reporting including DNB submissions. You'll be a driving force behind the full month end and year end close process, working closely with engineering, product and FP&A teams along the way.
This isn't a siloed accounting role. You'll work hands-on with live, high profile projects, helping shape how new products and integrations are accounted for from the ground up. You'll also present your own work directly to senior leadership, rather than having it filtered through someone else.
As Mollie scales its banking licence and expands its product lines, this role ensures the numbers behind that growth are accurate, compliant and clearly communicated. The team is also set to double in size, creating more opportunities as the function grows.
What you'll ship
Deliver accurate, on time monthly and yearly close, including full ownership of complex accounts such as revenue, cost of sales, provisions and taxes
Own regulatory reporting end to end, including DNB submissions and other required filings
Take major finance related projects from kickoff through to launch, working closely with engineering and product
Build financial solutions for business opportunities alongside FP&A, tax, operations and procurement teams
Coach and support junior accountants, helping them grow their skills and confidence
Prepare for and support external auditors through the annual audit, start to finish
What you'll bring
A degree in accountancy and/or finance, with a minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in accountancy and/or finance, and a track record of using AI to drive productivity and improve processes through automation
A post accountancy qualification such as ACCA, RA or CPA is preferred, though not a strict requirement. Strong fintech or general accounting experience without the certification will also be considered
Experience managing complex accounts, including revenue, cost of sales, provisions and taxes
Strong knowledge of IFRS and Dutch GAAP, along with tax accounting experience including CIT, VAT and WKR
Experience with month end and year end close processes
Comfortable presenting financial information to senior stakeholders and handling pushback
Able to work independently and take ownership, almost like running your own mini function
Grow your way
At Mollie, growth is personal. We believe everyone should have the chance to develop their skills, explore new challenges and shape their career on their own terms.
You'll get regular feedback and performance reviews to support your development, with fair and transparent salary reviews along the way. Many Mollies move into new roles or take on new projects to stretch themselves, and we actively hire from within to help you take the next step.
No matter if you're aiming for promotion, exploring a different career path or building new skills, you'll be supported with the tools, trust and opportunities to grow your way.
