• You shape and further develop Group accounting policies, guidelines and governance and ensure their consistent application across the organization.

• You monitor developments in IFRS and HGB, assess their impact on Enpal and lead or support the implementation of new accounting requirements.

• You provide technical expertise on complex areas such as revenue recognition, leases, financial instruments, provisions, consolidation and business combinations, and represent Technical Accounting in discussions with external auditors and other stakeholders.

• You contribute to strengthening technical accounting expertise across the organization through knowledge sharing, training and guidance on complex accounting matters.

What you’ll bring

• You have a degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration or a comparable field and several years of senior-level experience in Technical Accounting, Accounting Advisory, Group Accounting or Audit, ideally in a complex international organization.
