Accountant

The Finance team is seeking a motivated Accountant who is excited about making an impact on the business. As part of a lean and dynamic team, there is a tremendous opportunity for growth, ownership, and learning. Reporting to the Controller, the ideal candidate is eager to develop their accounting skills, communicates well across teams, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and adapts to changing responsibilities and priorities. If you're detail-oriented, love working with people, and are ready to roll up your sleeves on a variety of tasks, we want you to join us!

Location: Barcelona, Spain

For this role, we're embracing a hub-hybrid model, designed to balance flexibility with meaningful in-person collaboration. Team members are expected in-office 2-days per week. We believe great things happen when people come together intentionally to connect, create, and build momentum as a team.

What you’ll be doing:

• Support a timely, accurate, and reliable global month-end close, including preparing journal entries, intercompany transactions, and account reconciliations (cash, prepaid, accruals, and fixed assets).
• Own the procure-to-pay cycle end-to-end — including purchase orders, accounts payable, corporate credit cards, and employee expense reimbursements.
• Support close optimization initiatives and contribute ideas for process improvement.
• Assist with variance analysis and analytical review of financial statements.
• Help establish, document, and maintain accounting policies and internal controls.
• Assist with the year-end audit and regulatory filings. Partner with external tax accountants to support tax filings.
• Be open to assuming expanded responsibilities as the company grows and your skillset develops.

Qualifications:

Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every qualification. At Affinity, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t perfectly align with the qualifications above, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

Required:

• Degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration (ADE), or equivalent university-level education
• 2–4 years of experience in general ledger or transactional accounting (internship or prácticas experience welcome)

• Basic to intermediate proficiency in MS Excel (Pivot tables, basic formulas)
• Strong organizational, verbal, and written communication skills
• Business-level English required
• Curiosity and willingness to develop accounting research and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment with emphasis on accuracy
