We’re looking for a motivated and proactive individual to:
– Support the consolidation processes for Group and other reporting scopes, particularly with respect to investment-equity elimination, foreign currency translation and related areas (e.g., goodwill, non-controlling interests, etc.). This includes accounting transaction support (acquisitions, divestitures, mergers, etc.) and requires a robust understanding of consolidation logic within financial reporting infrastructure
– drive the preparation and validation of high-quality financial information, including analysis and preparation of internal control documentation to support disclosures in interim and annual reports and regulatory filings
– operate with a controller mindset, understanding risks and controls and working closely with stakeholders in other finance teams globally

Your team

We are an international team, responsible for oversight of the global daily and monthly financial close processes and preparation and analysis of internal, regulatory and external financial reporting (including the UBS Group Financial Statements). We have the objective of achieving high-quality financial reporting, transparent and agile internal control reporting and ensuring compliance with IFRS and other relevant requirements. By delivering internal, external and regulatory reporting that is accurate, timely and provides valuable insights, our team plays a vital role in supporting management decision making and in protecting the firm's financial reputation.

We aim to develop subject matter experts in the accounting and financial reporting space who can communicate effectively with senior stakeholders. We seek to continually challenge and enhance processes and controls, build further transparency and insights into our reporting products and identify opportunities for efficiency / automation. With these goals in mind, we are regularly engaged in change initiatives (accounting, reporting and infrastructure related) together with other stakeholders in the Group.

We offer an opportunity to leverage and further develop varied skillsets in an inclusive, dynamic and fast-paced environment with hybrid work optionality!

You have:
– qualified accounting designation (CPA, ACCA, or equivalent) or University Degree in Finance / Accounting
– at least 5 years of work experience with a comparable financial institution or a Big 4 company
– experience in financial reporting or working with accounting standards (e.g., IFRS, US GAAP, etc.)
– an ability to learn quickly and work efficiently, with flexibility to rotate between different reporting and controlling tasks
– experience working with financial reporting infrastructure and data sourcing, including report design
– an ability to communicate ideas in a clear and concise way, and interest in building relationships across an international team
– robust analytical skills and an inquisitive nature, with a knowledge of, or interest in learning about, banking topics (e.g., financial markets and products, risk management, etc.)

You are:
– a strong and confident communicator (written and verbal)
– a self-starter, with strong execution and delivery focus
– methodical, concise and accurate, with strong attention to detail
– open-minded and flexible, with an interest in continuous improvement
