Financial Controller

Our Finance team has played a key role in our journey to where we are today - supporting our global operations from our central Helsinki hub has been no easy feat, but
this group of dedicated and motivated professionals have made it seem
effortless!

As we continue to scale, we’re now looking for an experienced Country
Controller to help us focus on our local accounting efforts in Georgia. You will
sit with the local country team in Tbilisi but report to the Regional Financial
Controller and work directly with the centralized Finance team.

The Country Controller is responsible for local compliance and reporting, while assisting
the local teams with accounting related enquiries, such as payment follow-
ups, explanations of reports provided to restaurant partners etc.

What makes the Finance team so special is our ‘service first’ approach to the
job - we enjoy creating strong communication loops with the wider business,
so that bottlenecks are minimized and that things get done quickly and
efficiently.

Everybody is accountable for their own workload and takes pride in being
meticulous and precise. We also enjoy learning and developing as we go - it’s
important that you share this approach! 🙂
