ABOUT THE ROLE Pragmatike is recruiting on behalf of a European deep-tech company building a sovereign, energy-efficient cloud platform for modern AI and high-performance workloads. The company operates a distributed, highly automated infrastructure and is scaling rapidly across a multi-entity, international footprint.
As part of this growth, building an AI-native finance organization is a strategic priority.
We are seeking a Group Financial Controller to own and scale group accounting, consolidation, reporting, and controls across multiple legal entities. Reporting directly to the CFO, this is a senior, hands‐on leadership role for a finance professional capable of structuring, automating, and modernizing accounting operations in a deep-tech environment.
Strong, proven experience leveraging AI in accounting workflows is mandatory.
This role is not about maintaining legacy processes,
but about designing and operating an AI-first accounting function.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual group close and consolidation processes across all entities.
Deliver accurate management accounts, as well as board and investor reporting.
Ensure IFRS and local GAAP compliance across multiple jurisdictions.
Define, document, and enforce group accounting policies and internal controls.
Lead, optimize, and scale the NetSuite ERP across the group (NetSuite experience is mandatory).
Drive automation and AI adoption in accounting operations, including reconciliations, anomaly detection, journal automation, and close acceleration.
Manage audits, statutory filings, intercompany accounting, and transfer pricing processes.
Partner closely with the CFO on strategic initiatives, scaling efforts, and financial governance.
Build robust, scalable accounting infrastructure suited to a high-growth, deep-tech organization.
