# Group Controller, Director - Company: [Seranking]() - Location: Europe - Remote - Remote: Yes - Team: Business Operations - Posted: June 10, 2026 ## Job description SE Ranking is a profitable, growing B2B SaaS business - around 200 people, remote-first and globally distributed. As the business has scaled into a more complex multi-entity, multi-currency structure, we're hiring a senior controllership leader to own the integrity, accuracy, and audit-readiness of our books. This is a hands-on, build-oriented role for someone who takes real pride in well-controlled, audit-grade financials - and who wants to mature the accounting function as the company's structure and ambitions grow. You'll own the accounting backbone: multi-entity consolidation, internal controls, compliance, and the path to a clean external audit. You'll report to the CFO and work closely with the wider leadership team. If you're energised by raising the bar on how a scaling, multi-entity business runs its numbers, in a fast-moving, low-ego, global team, this is your role. ## What you'll do * **Own the integrity and audit-quality of the financials.** Take ownership of the company's accounting integrity and ensure financial reporting is accurate, compliant, and defensible across all entities — in partnership with the accounting team that runs the day-to-day close and statements. * **Own multi-entity consolidation and the controls around the close.** Own clean, accurate multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation and the control framework that sits around the monthly close, so the numbers are dependable and audit-grade. * **Drive audit readiness.** Document internal controls, implement defensible revenue recognition, and bring the company to a point where it can confidently face an external audit. * **Design and oversee the ERP migration.** Lead the design of the QuickBooks-to-NetSuite (or equivalent) migration as the backbone of a more mature, audit-grade finance infrastructure, partnering with the accounting team and NetSuite consultants on execution. * **Build the control environment.** Establish the accounting policies, internal controls, and process documentation a scaling, internationally distributed business needs. * **Own compliance, transfer pricing, and IP.** Own multi-jurisdiction statutory compliance and international tax, and lead transfer pricing and the tracking of IP flows across entities for the group's structure — working closely with external advisors. * **Own key external relationships.** Own the relationships with the company's banks, CPA firm, auditors, and core finance and accounting vendors, including bank communications and reporting. * **Lead a lean controllership team.** Develop the dedicated support this function needs so controls, compliance, and consolidation scale with the business. ## We're looking for someone who has * **Senior experience.** At a B2B SaaS or comparable technology company. You've built or materially upgraded an accounting function, not just maintained a mature one. * **Audit pedigree and qualification.** A Big Four (or comparable) background with roughly 10+ years in audit and controls, and an ACCA (preferred) or CPA qualification. You've prepared for or managed an external audit of consolidated entities specifically and you know what audit-ready actually means in practice. * **ERP migration experience.** You've led or played a central role in a finance systems upgrade. You understand what it takes to get from growing to audit-grade maturity. * **Multi-currency and international finance experience.** Managing books across multiple countries, entities, and currencies is second nature to you. European experience is a strong plus (VAT, local statutory regimes), and you're comfortable with international tax, transfer pricing, multi-jurisdiction compliance, and bridging GAAP and IFRS. * **Ownership of a control environment.** You've built the controls, documentation, and consolidation discipline behind a dependable close. * **Modern, tech-forward mindset.** You're comfortable in an async-first, globally distributed environment where Slack and clear written communication are the default. ## Bonus points, if you have * **Experience integrating finance teams or functions post-acquisition.** * **Experience building and experimenting with AI solutions.** You've designed and implemented AI-assisted workflows or automations in a finance context, not just adopted existing tools. * **Familiarity with SaaS metrics.** NDR, GRR, deferred revenue, and how the accounting supports them. ## What we offer * 22 days of paid time off, plus your local national holidays * Flexible work hours and a culture that trusts you to manage your time * Private medical insurance or a medical allowance (depending on your location) * Extended paid sick leave so you can fully recover without worry * AI investment. We invest heavily in AI so you'll have the opportunity to build skills that matter for the next decade of your career, not just this role. * A quarterly learning budget for courses, books, or anything that helps you grow professionally * A quarterly wellbeing budget you can use for sport, therapy, or even a good novel * A quarterly co-working budget so you can work from wherever feels right * Best hardware for your work (team Apple) * A transparent, flexible culture with people at the core of everything we do ## Apply [Apply on Seranking]() Canonical job page:
