🧑🏻‍💻 About the role

First things first: you want to know what you’re actually applying for. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distill it down to a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:

We’re looking for a GL Accountant to help us keep our books accurate, complete, and on time as we continue to grow globally. This is an interesting role for someone who enjoys complex, multi‑entity accounting, working with real‑world (and sometimes messy) data, and partnering with different teams to improve how things work in practice – all without tax/VAT compliance in the mix.

As a GL Accountant, you’ll own core month‑end close activities and reconciliations across multiple entities. You’ll work with complex, sometimes messy data from different systems, help keep our financial records clean and reliable, and collaborate with teams across finance and the wider business. The quality and timeliness of your work will directly support how Mews makes decisions, builds controls for IPO readiness, manages payments, and scales our operations across markets.

✅ Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

Own month‑end close activities for assigned entities (e.g. accruals, deferred expenses, fixed assets, intercompany, etc.) and help us hit a tight 3–4 day close window.

Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations to ensure accuracy and completeness across multiple legal entities.

Manage and post journal entries, making sure data is correctly reflected in our ERP.

Work closely with our Finance Systems and reporting teams to use data effectively (e.g. Power BI, other reporting tools) and improve the way we work.

Support financial reporting, including data for IFRS reporting packages, audits, and internal control activities.

Identify and drive process improvements across the GL area (better reconciliations, documentation, automation, controls).

Collaborate with teams such as tax, payroll, people, and sales to resolve accounting questions and keep records aligned.

Note: this is a pure accounting role – tax and VAT filings are handled by our dedicated tax team, so you can focus on GL, reconciliations, and data quality.

🤝️ You’ll be a great fit if you bring a few of the below with you:

4+ years of finance/accounting experience, including at least 2 years in GL or as a Senior GL/Senior Accountant.

Experience working in a multi‑entity environment (not just a single company) and handling complex accounting topics (bank, AP, AR, GL, closing operations).

Strong month‑end close and reconciliation experience, with clear examples of owning accounts and fixing discrepancies.

High attention to detail and comfort working with messy, unstructured data – you’re happy to investigate, clean, and adjust data before it can be used.

Solid Excel skills and ability to work with large data sets.

Fluent English and strong communication skills; you enjoy working with people across different teams and countries.

Good time management and resilience under pressure – you can stay organised and focused during tight close timelines.

Great to have:

Experience in corporate accounting or a Big Four / large outsourcing environment.

Experience with a global ERP, ideally Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (or similar).

Knowledge of IFRS and/or local GAAP standards.

SQL skills or strong interest in learning it.

Power BI experience – especially building or modifying reports, not just using existing ones.

Experience with payment providers and reconciling payment flows.

A track record of process improvement in accounting (e.g. automation, new controls, better documentation).

Salary: Up to 925,000 CZK pa (DOE)
