General Ledger Accountant

Department: Finance

📍 Sofia, Bulgaria | 🏢 Office-first | ⏱ Full-time

Team description

The Finance tribe at SumUp keeps our business accurate, compliant, and moving forward across 37 markets. Within the team, the Record to Report (R2R) function handles some of our most important accounting processes — from intercompany transactions and lease accounting to month-end close and balance sheet reporting. It's a collaborative, detail-oriented team that works closely with Treasury, Tax, Controlling, and FP&A every day. If you're building your accounting career and want to develop hands-on experience across a wide range of processes in a truly global finance environment, this is a great place to grow.

What you'll do

• Support intercompany accounting activities, including cash pool postings, loan interest calculations, and reconciliation of IC payables and receivables
• Post and analyse bank transactions related to intercompany transfers and tax payments, ensuring accuracy and timely resolution
• Assist with month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes, including preparation and review of balance sheet reconciliations
• Process Mastercard transactions and support fixed asset invoicing and settlement in line with internal controls
• Reconcile payroll-related liabilities and proactively investigate and resolve any reconciliation differences
• Collaborate with cross-functional Finance teams (AP, AR, Tax, Treasury, and FP&A) to identify and resolve intercompany discrepancies during period-end close
• Contribute to the development of process documentation and drive continuous process improvement initiatives

You'll be great for this role if

• You bring a solid foundation in accounting principles, backed by hands-on experience in a finance or general ledger (GL) accounting role
• You are confident preparing or supporting balance sheet reconciliations — including accruals, prepayments, and intercompany accounts
• You have experience with payroll accounting and reconciliation
• You have an educational background in Finance, Economics or Accounting
• You thrive in structured, detail-oriented work and maintain accuracy under pressure during busy period-end cycles
• You are eager to learn and adapt — strong Excel skills are essential, and experience with SAP would be a distinct advantage
• You communicate clearly and confidently in English, and you bring an open, collaborative mindset with a genuine drive to grow
