SE - Senior Accountant (Swedish Market)

Job Description

Join us to shape the future of work: your next adventure awaits!

We are looking for a highly experienced, hands-on and proactive Senior Accountant to join the Finance team in Sweden

This is a key role for the Swedish finance organization. You will be responsible for core accounting activities, including monthly and annual closing, VAT, reconciliations, statutory reporting and audit support. At the same time, you will act as the accounting lead for Sweden — guiding team members, and serving as the main local counterpart to the Global Accounting team on Swedish accounting matters

As part of the Accounting Team you will  ensure total compliance with Swedish statutory and business requirements. Success requires deep technical accounting knowledge, sharp judgment, and the confidence to take a definitive stance on regulatory and financial standards.

This is a fully remote position, allowing you to work from anywhere. Relocation to Sweden is not required, as we offer 100% remote work while supporting the Swedish finance organization.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage end-to-end month-end and year-end closing procedures, ensuring accuracy, quality and timely delivery.

  • Prepare and review financial reports through NetSuite.

  • Perform intercompany balance reconciliations and monthly reconciliation exercises.

  • Prepare and submit monthly VAT returns in compliance with Swedish regulations.

  • Prepare annual financial statements in accordance with K2 and K3 accounting frameworks.

  • Prepare corporate income tax returns.

  • Review and oversee bookkeeping performed by junior team members, ensuring quality, consistency and compliance.

  • Lead and coach junior accounting team members in day-to-day accounting matters.

  • Execute and maintain control processes for monthly, quarterly and annual closing cycles.

  • Support external audits and tax inspections by preparing documentation and responding to queries.

  • Serve as the local accounting counterpart to Global Accounting, ensuring that Swedish requirements are understood and properly reflected.

  • Actively contribute to the development of robust, scalable and well-controlled finance processes.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience in a senior accounting role, ideally within an international, complex or fast-growing company.

  • Strong knowledge of Swedish accounting standards, K2/K3, VAT and statutory reporting requirements.

  • Experience from preparing annual reports and corporate income tax returns.

  • Hands-on experience with NetSuite or a similar ERP system.

  • Experience in reviewing accounting work and guiding more junior colleagues.

  • Ability to work both operationally and strategically — from detailed reconciliations to advising on accounting implications.

  • High attention to detail and ability to deliver under tight deadlines.

  • Strong communication skills and confidence in collaborating with both local management and global finance teams.

  • Proactive, structured and solution-oriented mindset.

  • Fluency in Swedish and English.
