Your role
Are you a qualified Accountant with an interest in analyzing and substantiating financial information? Do you have a technical accounting background, excellent communication skills (written and spoken English) and an ability to work well across an international team? We're looking for a motivated and proactive individual to:
- drive financial reporting governance processes that involve analysis of issues and preparation of robust documentation for senior stakeholders
- lead our financial statement disclosure completeness processes, including understanding the disclosure requirements, engaging with multiple stakeholders and challenging input received
- operate with a controller mindset, working closely with other finance teams globally to support the delivery of high-quality financial information, including analysis and preparation of internal control documentation to support disclosures in interim and annual reports and regulatory filings
- contribute senior insights to change initiatives, including implementation of new or amended accounting standards and enhancements to financial reporting and related IT infrastructure
- identify, and act on, opportunities to optimize internal controls, analytical review procedures and other processes
Your team
You will be part of the Financial Accounting & Consolidation team, working in Poland, within the Group and Entity Accounting & Controlling organization.
We are an international team, responsible for oversight of the global daily and monthly financial close processes and preparation and analysis of internal, regulatory and external financial reporting (including the UBS Group Financial Statements). We have the objective of achieving high-quality financial reporting, transparent and agile internal control reporting and ensuring compliance with IFRS and other relevant requirements. By delivering internal, external and regulatory reporting that is accurate, timely and provides valuable insights, our team plays a vital role in supporting management decision making and in protecting the firm's financial reputation.
We aim to develop subject matter experts in the accounting and financial reporting space who can communicate effectively with senior stakeholders. We seek to continually challenge and enhance processes and controls, build further transparency and insights into our reporting products and identify opportunities for efficiency / automation. With these goals in mind, we are regularly engaged in change initiatives (accounting, reporting and infrastructure related) together with other stakeholders in the Group.
Your expertise
- qualified accounting designation (CPA, ACCA, or equivalent)
- at least 8 years of work experience with a comparable financial institution or a Big 4 company
- strong technical accounting background (e.g., IFRS, US GAAP, etc.) and comfort working independently on financial reporting and governance topics
- excellent English skills, with an ability to communicate ideas in a clear and concise way, and interest in building relationships across an international team
- robust analytical skills and an inquisitive nature, with a knowledge of, or interest in learning about, banking topics (e.g., financial markets and products, risk management, etc.)
- an ability to learn quickly and work efficiently, with flexibility to rotate between different reporting and controlling tasks
- methodical, concise and accurate, with strong attention to detail
- open-minded and flexible, with an interest in continuous improvement
