Job description

Mission Neko is redefining what prevention means, from treating illness when it arrives, to sustaining health before it's ever at risk. Our mission: make data-driven, preventative care accessible to more people, before symptoms appear.

In a single, non-invasive visit under an hour, proprietary technology and direct clinical care combine to deliver personalised, actionable insights. It's a team that thinks in 10x, not 10%. Every role here plays a part in building a world where prevention is the norm, and where your work genuinely helps people live longer, healthier lives.

Role Purpose

As accounting lead, you will take ownership of the accounting for a portfolio of group entities across Europe and the UK, including the intercompany and consolidation work that ties the group together. You will work closely with the wider finance team to keep the books accurate and audit-ready, act as a go-to resource for the accounting team, and contribute to the modernisation of how the finance function operates. This is not a people-management role — it is a senior, hands-on role with broad ownership and influence over how the team works.

What you'll do in the first 6-12 Months

  • Own the day-to-day and month-end accounting for group entities across Europe and the UK.
  • Coordinate and contribute to the month-end close calendar for your entities, keeping close on track and on time.
  • Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations, ensuring balances are accurate, well documented and timely.
  • Perform intercompany (IC) reconciliations across the group, resolving mismatches and ensuring intercompany balances agree.
  • Contribute to group consolidation accounting, ensuring entity-level results roll up correctly into the group numbers.
  • Handle VAT and tax compliance matters for your entities, including VAT reconciliations across jurisdictions.
  • Support statutory reporting and annual accounts for your entities, in collaboration with auditors.
  • Act as a key point of contact for external and internal audit, preparing supporting documentation and resolving audit queries.
  • Contribute to system ownership of Business Central for your entities, including chart-of-accounts and setup questions, and liaise with external BC consultants where needed.
  • Identify and drive process improvements across accounting and financial control routines.
  • Act as a go-to resource for the wider accounting team — answering questions, supporting onboarding, and helping shape more efficient ways of working (no formal people-management responsibility).
  • Participate in, and where relevant lead, cross-functional finance projects.

Minimum Requirements

  • 10+ years of relative experience.
  • A background in audit — for example from an accounting or audit firm — is a strong plus.
  • Solid experience with financial accounting, balance sheet reconciliations and month-end close in a multi-entity or international group.
  • Experience with intercompany reconciliations and group consolidation accounting.
  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (BC).
  • A structured, detail-oriented approach, comfortable working across multiple entities and jurisdictions.
  • Fluent in English, written and spoken.

Nice to have

  • Experience using AI tools such as Claude, or similar modern finance/tech stacks, to support accounting and reporting work.
