Junior Accounting Analyst

Posted Mar 16

If you have fallen and risen, if you have broken and fixed, if you have dreamt and built, then you have grit. Then we speak the same language. Welcome to the Wolfpack.

About CloudWalk:

We are one of the fastest growing fintechs on the planet. We kick ass. A unicorn, with millions of happy customers, a hardcore team, and hundreds of millions in funding and revenue. But not your typical startup.

We build and learn, fast, and we want the hackers, the artists, the crafters - join the Wolfpack!

We are seeking a high-potential and self-motivated junior accountant (accounting analyst or equivalent) to join our small but mighty accounting team. You will play a crucial role in optimizing month-end close and financial audits, as well as supporting the internalization of the accounting functions, incl. ERP implementation. This is a unique opportunity to actively contribute to the build-out and maturation of our accounting practices as we enter the next phase of rapid growth and ambitious expansion goals.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Prepare accurate journal entries and perform accounting reconciliations as part of the month-end close process
  • Work closely with our third-party accounting staff in Brazil and the US
  • Participate in the semi-annual/annual audits, providing necessary documentation and support
  • Support the consolidation process for multiple entities
  • Conduct detailed account analyses, identifying variances and explaining trends / fluctuations
  • Support all aspects of compliance matters, incl. audit, tax and regulatory filings
  • Assist in the deployment of third-party accounting software, esp. SAP S4/Hana and become a key user 
  • Engage in cross functional projects to drive improvements in related processes 

What You Need to Succeed:

  • Bachelor's degree in accounting;
  • CRC or on track;
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in high-growth tech companies, preferably Banking or FinTech startups
  • Solid understanding of accounting procedures and principles (Brazilian GAAP / IFRS essential, BACEN GAAP / COSIF a plus)
  • Prior experience with general ledger functions and month-end close process
  • Strong Portuguese and English communication skills, both oral and written
  • Proficiency in SQL and MSOffice/ GSuite packages (specially Excel/Sheets)
  • Keen interest in learning new processes and implementing the latest technology 
  • Team player with outstanding communication skills in a remote work environment
  • High level of organizational skills to prioritize & handle multiple tasks on short notice in a face-paced environment

We are not expecting candidates to have expertise across all of these areas. We will gladly help you bridge the gaps.

As a member of a fully remote and distributed team, you are expected to complete tasks autonomously, being highly collaborative and self-driven.

Diversity and Inclusion

We believe in social inclusion, respect, and appreciation of all people. We promote a welcoming work environment, where each CloudWalker can be authentic, regardless of gender, ethnicity, race, religion, sexuality, mobility, disability, or education.
