About the role
We're seeking a Finance Systems Support Specialist to join our Marketplace Infrastructure team, where you'll play a crucial role in supporting our Finance department's operations being the bridge between finance and technology. You will work alongside our dedicated engineers who focus on Salesforce and NetSuite product delivery which is key to our finance department. You'll be essential in ensuring our financial operations run smoothly, particularly during critical month-end close periods.
What you will do
Your role will be dynamic and impactful as you'll be the go-to person for NetSuite support, helping our finance team navigate the system efficiently. During month-end close, you'll be instrumental in ensuring accurate reconciliation of payouts and other financial activities. You'll work closely with the team to maintain and enhance our Accounts Payable and Receivable processes, ensuring both businesses and individuals receive their payouts accurately and on time.
Beyond the day-to-day operations you will:
•Drive continuous improvement by being a key player in process improvement initiatives, identifying opportunities to streamline our NetSuite workflows and implementing effective solutions.
•Share knowledge by conducting training sessions and maintaining clear documentation, helping our finance team maximize their use of NetSuite.
•Support data needs by assisting in extracting and preparing financial reports, ensuring our team has valuable insights for decision making.
Who you are
You're someone who thrives in a finance-oriented environment and has hands-on experience with NetSuite. While formal education isn't a requirement, your background in finance or accounting helps you understand the intricacies of financial operations. You have a strong analytical mindset and excel at problem-solving, particularly when it comes to financial systems and processes. Your attention to detail is exceptional, and you're comfortable working under pressure, especially during busy month-end close periods. You communicate effectively, both in writing and verbally, making complex technical concepts accessible to various team members. Your understanding of Accounts Payable and Receivable processes is solid, and you're familiar with the requirements of working in a listed company. If you have experience with Swedish financial regulations and practices, that's a plus, but not essential. Similarly, experience in the advertisement industry or product development is beneficial but not essential.
Above all we're looking for someone who brings a positive attitude and a willingness to learn and contribute to our team's success.
Where you will be
Most of our teams are hybrids with some members co-located in offices and some working remote. With a remote first way of working we want you to feel productive regardless of work location!
For this role, you can be based in the UK or Sweden. We have offices in London and Stockholm but it is optional if you want to work remote or at the office.
Acast is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, national origin or any of the other wonderful characteristics that make us different.
Culture is our number one priority as a business. We believe people come first, and we work every day to enable autonomy, continuous improvement and bring out the best in people. We’re global and have remote teams, so it’s even more important that we strive for an open, inclusive and caring environment where everyone feels visible and welcome.
