- Experience within a multi-entity, multi-currency environment
- Comfortable with journals, accruals, prepayments and month-end support
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to investigate and resolve discrepancies
- Proactive, confident and able to work independently
- Professional services or recruitment experience would be beneficial but isn't essential
