Senior Manager, IFRS & Consolidation

The day-to-day

• Run the monthly IFRS group consolidation in Excel (later in LucaNet), including chart of accounts mapping, intercompany eliminations, FX translation and non-controlling interests
• Own technical accounting positions mainly on IFRS 15, 16, 2, 3 and 10, and answer auditor queries on time
• Build a fast, repeatable close by automating intercompany reconciliation, designing consolidation controls and working towards a three-day close
• Account for acquisitions end to end, from the purchase price allocation to consolidating new entities
• Define IFRS 8 segments and KPI and APM definitions with FP&A, and shape the new P&L structure under IFRS 18

You should apply if you

• Have built deep technical IFRS expertise in audit or IFRS accounting advisory at a Big 4 firm
• Have designed a group consolidation process and run it end to end, both in spreadsheets and in dedicated consolidation systems (e.g. LucaNet, SAP Group Reporting, OneStream, Tagetik or Hyperion)
• Have worked through complex group topics: acquisitions and purchase price allocation (IFRS 3, IFRS 10), revenue over time (IFRS 15), leases (IFRS 16) and share-based payments (IFRS 2)
• Write the position paper and then book it, and build the processes, templates and documentation that make the work repeatable under audit deadlines
• Explain IFRS clearly to non-accountants, challenge advisers constructively and work in English every day

Note: We operate in an industry where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically under-represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.

Nice to Have

• German, and experience with German GAAP (HGB), ICFR or IDW PS 982
• Experience with interim reporting (IAS 34) or an IFRS 18 implementation, ideally in defence, aerospace or another industrial business
