We’re now looking for an Accountant (d/f/m) to join our Financial Accounting & Controlling team in Berlin.

Why you’ll love this role

This 12-month fixed-term position gives you the time to really arrive, understand the business in depth, and leave your footprint.

You will :

• Own important accounting topics end-to-end

• Experience a team culture built on trust, expertise, and genuine support

Our team is diverse in backgrounds, perspectives and personalities — and that’s exactly what makes us strong. We challenge each other, support each other, and celebrate wins together.

What you’ll do :

• Prepare month-, quarter- and year-end closes in line with IFRS and German GAAP (HGB)

• Independently prepare statutory financial statements under HGB

• Perform balance sheet reconciliations and ensure financial accuracy

• Support external audits and communicate with auditors and German authorities

• Partner with the business on tax, billing and accounting topics

• Identify opportunities to optimize and simplify accounting processes

What you bring :

• 4–5+ years of professional experience with a strong accounting focus

• Degree in Accounting, Controlling, Finance or a related field

• Strong German GAAP (HGB) knowledge (big plus: solid understanding of IFRS)

• Experience in closing processes and compliance

• Experience with accounting systems (ideally SAP S4)

• Advanced Excel skills and strong analytical mindset

• High attention to detail combined with business thinking

• Confidence to communicate complex financial topics clearly

• Business fluent German and strong English skills

What makes us different

At mobile.de, Finance is not just about numbers. We are business partners. We take ownership. We improve things. And we genuinely enjoy working together.

If you’re looking for a role where your expertise matters, your ideas are heard, and your team has your back — we’d love to meet you.
