Accounting Manager

About the job This is an operational role for someone who enjoys taking ownership and keeping the entire day-to-day finance function running smoothly. Strikersoft is more complex than a typical small Swedish consulting company. We operate across Sweden, the UK, Romania and Ukraine, while also having product and IP-related matters connected to SwipeCare and relationships between Strikersoft and other group entities. We are therefore looking for someone who is hands-on, structured and comfortable working independently. You will have clear responsibility for the Swedish finance function, with support from an experienced CFO Advisor when needed. This is a role where accuracy, reliability and the ability to get things done really matter. Your role As an Accounting Manager, you will take ownership of the day-to-day finance operations for Strikersoft Sweden. You will: • Manage the full Swedish bookkeeping process in Fortnox. • Perform complete monthly closings and ensure financial records are accurate and up to date. • Handle input and output VAT, including VAT reporting. • Manage payroll and employer declarations. • Handle employee expenses and support employees with finance-related questions. • Prepare bank payments for approval. • Reconcile bank accounts, tax accounts, accounts receivable and accounts payable. • Manage accruals, prepayments and other period-end adjustments. • Handle vacation pay liabilities and other balance sheet accounts. • Prepare year-end closing materials and documentation for the audit. • Produce a simple monthly management reporting package. • Maintain the financial model and prepare expense forecasts. • Provide practical finance support and consultations to employees. Who you are: We’re looking for someone who enjoys responsibility and does not need a large finance organization around them to get things done. You are structured, proactive and detail-oriented, but also practical and business-minded. You are comfortable working independently, taking ownership of deadlines, and making sure that things are completed correctly and on time. You don’t need to be a CFO - but you should be confident enough to own the operational finance function and know when to ask for support. Required experience & competencies The ideal candidate brings: • Approximately 4-7 years of relevant accounting or finance experience. • Strong hands-on experience with Swedish bookkeeping and accounting processes. • Solid knowledge of Swedish VAT, payroll and employer declarations. • Experience with monthly and year-end closing processes. • Experience working in Fortnox or a similar accounting system. • Good understanding of balance sheet reconciliations, accruals, prepayments and other accounting adjustments. • Experience preparing financial reports, forecasts and supporting management with financial information. • Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy.• Ability to work independently and take full ownership of assigned responsibilities. • Good communication skills and a service-oriented approach when working with employees and management. • Fluency in Swedish and English. Why choose us Here, you’ll have the opportunity to take real ownership of the finance function in an international consulting and technology company. We believe in action over bureaucracy and trust people to take responsibility. You’ll have the freedom to run the day-to-day finance operations independently, while having access to experienced CFO-level support when more complex matters arise. If you enjoy being the person who knows that the numbers are right, the deadlines are under control, and things simply get done - this role could be a great fit.
