Senior Accountant (LemFi Europe)

Join LemFi Europe, a fast-growing fintech company based in Dublin. As a Senior Accountant, you will be responsible for the month-end close process, statutory reporting, tax filings, and regulatory submissions.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in accounting, experience in a regulated environment, and proficiency in NetSuite and Excel.

• Own the full month-end close process, producing accurate management accounts and board packs that give senior leadership a clear commercial picture every single time.
• Prepare statutory accounts, tax filings and regulatory submissions to the Central Bank of Ireland, managing external auditors, tax authorities and regulators without hand-holding.
• Drive forecasting, budgeting and variance analysis, turning high volumes of raw financial data into concise, decision-ready insight for management.
• Confident using AI tools to automate reconciliations, streamline processing and improve reporting speed - and rigorous about verifying outputs before relying on them
• Qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant with at least four to five years of post-qualification experience
• Proven ability to work independently, prioritise under pressure and hit the ground running in a fast-paced environment with limited hand-holding
• Background in a Big Four firm (ideally with fintech or financial services clients) or direct experience within a fintech or regulated financial services business
• Hands-on experience with statutory reporting, regulatory submissions and stakeholder management in a regulated environment - experience dealing with the Central Bank of Ireland or an equivalent regulator is a strong plus
• Strong communicator who can translate complex financial information into plain language for senior management and board-level audiences
• Proficient in NetSuite and Excel; comfortable interrogating large, complex data sets and drawing commercial conclusions from them
• Experience in a newly authorised or early-stage regulated entity, where processes were built rather than inherited
• Exposure to multi-currency accounting and cross-border financial flows
• Experience preparing or presenting to a local board or regulatory body such as the Central Bank of Ireland
