How much of your month-end close would you remove if you could choose the tools yourself? At Kognity, you’ll get to find out. Accounting here runs across Sweden, the UK and the US, and the setup was built for where we were, not where we’re going. As our Accounting Manager, you’ll rebuild it the way you’d want it: the processes, the controls and the external partners that keep everything accurate and compliant, with automation and AI wherever they genuinely help. What you'll do: - Own the month-end and year-end close, statutory reporting, expenses and supplier payments - Rebuild how it all works: choose the tools, automate the manual parts, and use AI where it actually helps - Manage our external accounting firms in Sweden, the UK and the US, and hold them all to the same standard - Own banking, daily payments and liquidity, so we always know our cash position and manage FX early - Make sure audit and tax are done on time in every country, and build internal controls that fit a growing tech company - Work with the Order to Cash team, People & Culture and the rest of the business, so accounting rules are understood outside finance What we're looking for: - Solid experience in account
