Full job description

About the Role

Are you a finance professional who thrives at the intersection of operational excellence and digital innovation? Kärcher is looking for a Regional GL Expert to drive our local General Ledger (GL) accounting operations across the Northern Europe Region.

In this role, you will own the accuracy and compliance of our regional financial operations while acting as the primary liaison with our Global Shared Service Center (KGS). This role requires an international mindset, a willingness to travel up to 20% across the region. The role will be reporting directly to the Regional Service Accounting Manager.

Key Responsibilities & Deliverables

As our Regional GL Expert, you will not just manage processes—you will own the outcomes. Your core responsibilities are directly tied to the vital deliverables expected in this role:

You will manage all local GL functions. You will ensure accurate monthly and annual financial closings, minimizing the "Days to Close" while securing the first-time quality of all accounting postings.
You will oversee the timely computation and preparation of all regional tax returns (VAT, corporate tax) and ensure full compliance with local legislation and Group Accounting Practice. Your goal is to deliver zero non-compliance issues in statutory filings and drive swift, efficient audit resolutions as the main contact for external and internal auditors.
Serve as the central operational contact and mediator between the local team and the Kärcher Global Shared Service team leads. You will be responsible for the quality of all outsourced accounting processes, establishing smooth escalation workflows, and maintaining a high standard of service delivery.
Maintain robust accounting controls and financial security across treasury, cash pooling, and regional payroll journals. You proactively identify, highlight, and mitigate financial risks before they impact the business.
Continuously evaluate workflows to enhance productivity and quality. A key deliverable will be the implementation of business-approved AI tools and advanced digital assets to modernize the team's capabilities and drive operational efficiency.

What We Are Looking For

BSc degree in Accounting, Finance, or an equivalent relevant field (an MBA or CPA is a plus).
Minimum of 5 years of progressive experience in an accounting or finance role. If you have experience from leading a team or function, it is highly desirable.
A professional level of English, proficiency in a Nordic language being highly desirable.
Senior knowledge of local accounting principles, practices, laws, and regulations within the region.
You uphold a solid hands-on experience with major accounting software (SAP preferred) and tools like Google Workspace (Advanced Sheets). Knowledge of FIS, TIS, and SAC is highly desirable.
You have a strong ability to analyze, and find insights within large volumes of financial data using a structured, methodical, and process-driven approach.
Excellent relationship skills to act as a bridge across global teams, balancing a results-oriented approach with strict confidentiality and discretion.

Why Kärcher?

At Kärcher, we live a culture of agility, performance, and international cooperation. We empower our employees to make and drive decisions, manage complexity, and foster a strong team spirit.

Ready to make a difference? Apply today and help us shape the future of regional finance at Kärcher!
