About the role

Jump Trading is seeking an experienced Accounting Manager to join its EU and APAC Finance team, based in London. The team owns financial, statutory and regulatory reporting across 20+ legal entities in Europe and Asia-Pacific, with NetSuite as the group ERP.

This is a senior, London-based role with a European focus. The successful candidate will take ownership of the statutory and management reporting for a portfolio of the group's European operating entities, partner closely with local third-party accountants and auditors, and broaden the team's coverage of its core European entities. The role also contributes to the team's ongoing finance automation agenda. It suits a technically strong, self-directed accountant who is comfortable owning entities end to end and working across borders and time zones.

Key responsibilities

• Own the monthly close, balance sheet reconciliations, and management reporting for a portfolio of European operating entities, including German entities reporting under local HGB and other EU local-GAAP frameworks.

• Prepare statutory financial statements and lead audit coordination for the assigned entities, working directly with external auditors and local third-party bookkeepers.
