Job description
From Spotify’s job post, as they wrote it.
What You'll Do
* Own the monthly and quarterly close for your areas, delivering accurate IFRS results and clear, insight-driven flux commentary
* Use AI tools and data (BigQuery, SQL, LLM-based assistants) to automate preparation, speed up analysis, and redirect time toward review and judgment
* Design, build, and maintain lightweight automations and AI-assisted workflows, and partner with Financial Engineering on larger system changes
Read the full description
* Make sure automated and AI-assisted processes stay accurate, explainable, and well-controlled, including SOX controls and audit evidence
* Act as a go-to partner for FP&A, Tax, Treasury, Procurement, AP, and business teams, turning ad hoc requests into scalable, self-serve solutions
* Support external and internal audits for your areas and keep RTR processes and documentation current
* Share knowledge and coach teammates on both accounting and new ways of working
Who You Are
* You have 4+ years of month-end close or general ledger experience at a global, publicly traded company, with solid IFRS knowledge
* You hold a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance; a CPA or equivalent is a plus
* You bring strong accounting judgment and can research and resolve accounting questions independently
* You’re comfortable working directly with data; experience with SQL and BigQuery is strongly preferred, or you have a clear willingness to learn quickly
* You have hands-on experience using AI tools to improve your work, or strong curiosity to start, plus the judgment to know when not to trust the output
* You have an automation mindset: you notice repetitive work and want to remove it
* You understand upstream and downstream processes (AP, Procurement, Treasury) and how they affect the general ledger
* You have experience with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred; Oracle or SAP also relevant)
* You’re a clear communicator who can explain accounting and data topics to non-specialists and keep priorities on track during close
Where You'll Be
This role is based in Stockholm.
We offer you the flexibility to work where you work best! There will be some in person meetings, but still allows for flexibility to work from home. We ask that you come in 3 x per week.
