As Teamlead Accounting, you will help keep our financial close reliable and our reporting compliant while the finance organization grows alongside the business.

About the role Based either in Munich, Germany or Remote/Europe. You will lead the General Ledger, Fixed Assets, Inventory and Accounts Payable team, starting with six direct reports and growing as insourcing commences. The team's scope will develop over time as the finance organization grows, so the role will help shape how accounting works at IONITY.

Key challenges include keeping closings accurate and on time, coordinating the outsourced Shared Service Center and local tax consultants, and turning recurring bottlenecks into lasting process improvements. The role creates value by ensuring compliant accounting under IFRS in a European environment, and by serving as the first point of contact for internal accounting questions, including those arising from new revenue streams.

Key responsibilities

• Coordinate and track the month-end and year-end closing schedule so that accounts payable, accounts receivable and the General Ledger close accurately and on time.
• Review the monthly and quarterly reporting package prepared by the Shared Service Center, and monitor data flows from HR/Payroll and IT into SAP to resolve breaks before they affect the close.
• Lead the team by allocating tasks, setting team goals and balancing workload to prevent bottlenecks, while creating onboarding kits and documentation for new hires and giving ongoing feedback that informs formal performance reviews.
