Accountant

Join us!

Are you an Accountant with a strong technical foundation, ideally shaped in a Big 4 audit or accounting outsourcing team, looking for broad, hands-on responsibility in an international group? 

SwissBorg is a crypto wealth management platform operating through a group of regulated entities across Switzerland, France, Estonia and other jurisdictions. Our accounting team is small, and every member makes a real difference. In this role, you will own Accounts Payable and contribute across the full scope of the accounting function: month-end close, reconciliations, intercompany, VAT and tax, and audit preparation.

We would love to hear from you if you are a versatile all-rounder who enjoys the variety that comes with a multi-entity group. The ideal candidate can step into any part of the accounting cycle, from processing supplier invoices to preparing audit files. 

You will:

• Own the Accounts Payable process: supplier invoice review and coding (ApprovalMax/Xero), payment preparation, supplier statement reconciliations and vendor master data

• Prepare and manage general ledger entries, accruals and prepayments

• Monthly, quarterly and annual closes for all group entities, in collaboration with external accounting firms

• Balance sheet and bank reconciliations, and account analysis to ensure balances are correct and supported

• Monthly intercompany reconciliations, recharges and settlements across group entities

• Supporting VAT and other tax compliance across jurisdictions (VAT returns, reverse charge, withholding taxes), working with our external tax advisors

• Prepare audit files and support the annual and interim audits of the group entities

• Strengthen internal controls and improve accounting processes, contributing your own ideas

• Manage both technical and routine accounting tasks with a high degree of accuracy and consistency

About you:

• A degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field

• Around 5 years of accounting experience, ideally starting at a Big 4 firm in audit or accounting outsourcing

• A strong accounting background: confident with general ledger accounting, closing, reconciliations, accruals and the full accounting cycle

• Experience with multi-entity groups, intercompany accounting and, ideally, consolidation

• Hands-on Accounts Payable experience; experience coaching or reviewing the work of junior team members is a plus

• Working knowledge of VAT and corporate tax compliance; international or cross-border VAT exposure is a plus

• Experience preparing for and working with external auditors

• Hands-on experience with accounting software and strong Excel skills; familiarity with Xero and ApprovalMax is a plus

• Must have an interest in crypto and/or crypto accounting is a plus

• Fluent English (French is a bonus)

• A proactive, detail-oriented and independent working style, comfortable in a remote, international team
