About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential SaaS organization that is searching for a Senior Revenue Accountant to own revenue recognition execution and accounts receivable close for their multi-year enterprise contracts. This position reports to the VP of Finance and serves as the technical subject-matter expert on ASC 606/IFRS 15 within a small, high-accountability accounting team.

This role is based in Germany and requires someone who can operate independently while mentoring junior team members through complex revenue scenarios.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the organization's subject-matter expert on ASC 606/IFRS 15, reviewing enterprise contracts to determine performance obligations, standalone selling price (SSP) allocation, and timing of revenue recognition
  • Own AR month-end close, deferred revenue roll-forward, and revenue-to-cash reconciliation, meeting a 5-business-day close target
  • Manage credit risk assessment and set collections strategy and priorities across the customer base
  • Handle complex and enterprise customer accounts, including escalations that cannot be resolved by junior team members
  • Execute revenue recognition schedules including variable consideration, contract modifications, and multi-element arrangements
  • Partner with FP&A on subscription revenue metrics (ARR, NRR) to ensure consistency between GAAP revenue and management reporting
  • Support new deal structuring through the deal desk process
  • Prepare audit schedules and respond to revenue-related inquiries from external auditors
  • Provide day-to-day review and coaching to junior revenue and collections staff

What We're Looking For

Required qualifications:

  • 5+ years in revenue accounting, including hands-on ASC 606/IFRS 15 application to multi-element, usage-based, and milestone SaaS arrangements
  • Experience with contract review, SSP analysis, variable consideration, and contract modifications
  • NetSuite experience required
  • Comfortable operating in a multi-entity, multi-currency environment typical of a scaling global SaaS company
  • Prior experience reviewing or mentoring junior accounting staff
  • Comfortable owning technical accounting judgment calls and defending them to auditors
  • Familiarity with SOX or equivalent internal-controls frameworks over revenue recognition
  • Experience supporting SOC 2 or financial-statement audit requests
  • Track record of escalating revenue recognition risk or contract ambiguity early, before it affects close timing
  • Commitment to meeting aggressive close timelines (5-business-day close)
  • Full professional fluency in English, written and spoken
  • Valid work authorization for Germany required
  • Willingness to travel periodically for team collaboration (no customer travel required)

Preferred qualifications:

  • NetSuite Advanced Revenue Management (ARM) experience
  • Professional accounting qualification (ACCA, CPA, CIMA, or international equivalent)
  • Comfortable using AI tools and automation platforms to streamline contract review, reconciliations, and reporting
  • Experience scaling revenue accounting processes through high-growth periods (e.g., ERP/revenue-engine migration, M&A integration, or multi-entity expansion)
