Overview

Are you someone who gets a weird thrill from balancing books to the last decimal? Do you secretly enjoy making spreadsheets that would put art galleries to shame? Does the phrase “monthly close” make your heart beat just a little faster (in a good way)? If that sounds like you — then yes, we’re absolutely looking for you!

At Elbefruit, we believe accounting isn’t just about compliance—it’s about clarity, strategy, and laying the financial foundation that empowers smart decisions and sustainable growth. We’re on the lookout for an Accountant who doesn’t just crunch numbers but sees the bigger picture. You’ll be the financial compass that helps steer us in the right direction.

This isn’t a back-office role—we want someone who brings ideas to the table, spots risks before they become problems, and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and dig into everything from daily transactions to year-end audits.

We need someone who knows their debits from their credits, enjoys translating chaos into structure, and thrives in a fast-paced environment. If you want to do meaningful work, influence core financial operations, and help a business scale — you’re going to like it here.

In Short

  • Assist in the preparation and analysis of monthly and annual financial statements
  • Lead the monthly close process and ensure it runs like clockwork
  • Manage accounts payable and receivable with a laser focus on cash flow
  • Reconcile bank statements, ledgers, and all the aligned processes in between
  • Handle tax reporting and ensure compliance with tax laws (zero penalties is the goal!)
  • Build and document accounting policies that actually make sense
  • Collaborate with other teams to bring clarity to business numbers
  • Monitor financial metrics and spot trends before they become “uh-oh” moments
  • Provide strategic insights that help leaders make smarter decisions
  • Mentor junior staff (and share your Excel magic)

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s in Accounting or Finance (CA Inter or CPA is a big plus) 3–5 years of hands-on accounting experience
  • Strong knowledge of accounting standards and principles
  • Certification with tools like QuickBooks
  • Advanced Excel skills and a love for clean, elegant spreadsheets
  • Eye for detail and heart for deadlines
  • Solid communication skills—you can explain numbers without needing subtitles

Benefits

  • Competitive salary + performance bonuses
  • Exposure to senior leadership and real impact on business strategy
  • A team that values your voice and your brain
  • Opportunities for growth (this role could evolve into Sr. Accountant)
  • Remote work flexibility and a healthy dose of work-life balance
