- Own accounts receivable, including customer invoicing, cash collection, and reconciliations to keep cash flow predictable.
- Validate supplier invoices in detail, proactively identifying errors, overcharges, and cost anomalies before they hit the books.
- Coordinate payroll across multiple jurisdictions, working with external providers while retaining internal ownership and accountability.
- Handle VAT submissions, tax filings, and ongoing compliance in line with Estonian accounting standards.
- Produce monthly financial reporting including P&L, cash position, and cost breakdowns that leadership can rely on
- Support audits and statutory reporting by preparing documentation, answering questions, and working directly with external accountants and auditors
- Take on ad‑hoc finance projects as the company grows, improving processes, controls, and visibility where needed.
