> The General Accountant owns the full expense cycle for Thndr's group entities, focusing on accurate recording, period-end recognition, and month-end close discipline. The role involves managing intercompany transactions, vendor invoices, and internal controls within a regulated fintech environment.

## Job description

## About The Role

You will own the full expense cycle across Thndr's group entities, making sure every cost the business incurs is recorded accurately, in the right period, in the right entity, and with the right supporting documentation. The focus is on the judgment-heavy side of expenses: accruals, prepayments, intercompany allocations, and month-end close discipline. Transaction processing is part of the role but not the bulk of it. This role suits someone early in their accounting career who wants to develop into a well-rounded accountant with real exposure to group close, multi-entity consolidation, and IFRS application in a regulated fintech environment.

## What You'll Do

Expense accounting & period-end recognition

- Record and review expenses across group entities, ensuring proper classification, cost center, and entity coding
- Ensure expenses are recognized in the correct accounting period in line with the matching principle
- Prepare and post monthly accruals for unbilled or uninvoiced expenses
- Maintain and amortize prepayment schedules (SaaS subscriptions, licenses, insurance, rent)

Intercompany transactions

- Prepare and record intercompany expense allocations and recharges with proper supporting documentation
- Issue and track intercompany invoices in line with group transfer pricing policies
- Support reconciliation of intercompany payable and receivable balances across entities

Month-end close

- Own the expense close checklist; ensure all invoices, accruals, and prepayments are posted before the close deadline
- Perform variance analysis on key expense lines versus budget and prior periods
- Prepare balance sheet reconciliations for accruals, prepayments, and intercompany balances

Vendor invoice processing

- Review and post vendor invoices to the correct GL account, cost center, and entity
- Match invoices to approvals before posting
- Support payment run preparation in line with the approved payment calendar
- Maintain organized vendor documentation and the vendor master file

Controls & audit readiness

- Maintain audit-ready files for all expense and payables transactions
- Support the implementation and maintenance of internal controls around the procure-to-pay cycle
- Assist with external audit requests and regulatory inspections related to expenses

## What You'll Need

- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
- 1–3 years of accounting experience, ideally with exposure to general ledger and month-end close work
- Solid understanding of double-entry bookkeeping and IFRS fundamentals (accruals, matching, cut-off)
- Proficiency in Excel (lookups, pivot tables, basic formulas)
- Strong attention to detail and ability to meet tight deadlines
- Fluency in English (written and spoken)

Who Are We? Thndr was founded on a bold dream to democratize access to investing through smart tech and human-centric design. This is simply our way of saying we give anyone with a smartphone the simple and easy access they need to preserve and grow their wealth. At the same time, we’re shaping the future of investing while actively driving the economies we serve by promoting local investment products.

History has shown that investing is the single greatest way to build long-term wealth, but before Thndr, only a very small percentage of people had access to it due to:

- High barriers to entry — In the form of excessive minimum account balances, complex, outdated onboarding, and low financial literacy.
- Irrelevant experience — Catered toward expert traders and financial specialists, therefore alienating the majority of the population.
- Fragmented offering — Investment products were not gathered in a single, intuitive outlet.

We don't just talk about change, we deliver it. Here's a glimpse into our impact so far:

- 5.5 million app downloads
- EGP 1B+ average daily traded value across 2025
- #1 digital investing platform in Egypt for the third consecutive year
- 76% of users are first-time investors
- 40% of our users come from outside of capital cities and have previously had limited access to financial institutions

Building on the success of our core platform, we are continuing to change culture and break down barriers by launching Rumble, the subscription-based investment recommendations platform.

Rumble was born with the vision to empower everyday individuals to build wealth confidently and intelligently through access to timely and in-depth advice from the industry’s top experts. Going beyond traditional investment advice, it offers long and short-term investment recommendations and financial content through engaging articles and videos that guide users on their financial journey and maximize their returns.

At Thndr, we're looking for people driven by our mission to help us democratize investing across the MENA region.
