Senior GL Accountant
JetBrains · Amsterdam
About the role
Are you interested in solving the puzzle of creating efficient and scalable high-level financial structures rather than just preparing documentation? Do you enjoy being a liaison between corporate finance and local government?
What you will do
Our Finance team keeps JetBrains' global operations running smoothly so our product teams can focus on what they do best: building great tools. As we continue to grow and expand our international presence, managing the financial integrity of our holding structures becomes increasingly complex.
In this role, you will take full ownership of our holding-level accounting activities, ensuring statutory compliance, flawless month-end closes, and reliable group reporting. You will act as the key technical anchor for holding-company accounting, working closely with tax, treasury, and controlling teams, as well as external auditors. This is a chance to shape and scale our financial processes, turning complex transactions into structured, transparent workflows that support JetBrains' long-term growth.
Day to day, you will:
- Lead and coordinate holding-level accounting activities, including month-end, quarter-end, and year-end closes.
- Prepare and review statutory financial statements and supporting documentation for holding entities.
- Ensure complete compliance with local statutory accounting and Dutch reporting requirements.
- Partner with the Controlling team to guide external auditors, advisors, and service providers through statutory reporting and audit cycles.
- Analyze complex accounting matters, document key technical positions, and align accounting policies across holding entities.
- Prepare reconciliations, journals, balance sheet reviews, and closing documentation for holding companies.
- Monitor intercompany balances and lead intercompany accounting alignment and eliminations.
- Improve finance workflows, internal controls, and reporting systems to help our accounting processes scale.
