About the Role
At Workana, we're hunting for a tech-savvy accounting pro who brings solid financial expertise, a sharp technical mindset, and a continuous improvement approach. We need someone who can inject structure, precision, and scalability into our company's financial management.
This isn't your typical accounting gig: we're looking for someone who blends technical excellence in financial closings with the ability to design, automate, and streamline accounting processes.
We want someone who gets excited about the technical nitty-gritty —accounting done right— but also has a passion for efficiency: someone who knows (or at least is curious about) tools like SQL, simple automations, or AI functions applied to financial processes. Someone who understands how a robust accounting structure gives speed and solidity to a growing company.
If you're motivated by building from scratch, reviewing accounting workflows, leaving processes neat and auditable, and working independently while collaborating with a team, this role will feel like a perfect fit.
You'll be the team's accounting go-to: a key person ensuring numbers add up, risks are controlled, and the business makes decisions with reliable and timely information.
We're not looking for someone to just "do what's always been done", but to bring your experience, technical judgment, and improvement vision to elevate our financial area to match our growth ambitions. You'll have space to propose, implement, and leave your unique mark.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement solid, scalable accounting processes, incorporating simple automations (e.g., SQL, applied AI, advanced formulas, Zapier/N8N) to reduce errors and manual tasks.
- Ensure fiscal and accounting compliance across all jurisdictions where the company operates, collaborating with external advisors when necessary.
- Serve as the technical reference point during external audits, ensuring preparation and delivery of validated, clear, and well-documented accounting information.
- Actively participate in financial statement generation and analysis, providing accounting insights that help explain deviations and support decision-making.
- Execute complex accounting entries, provisions, reconciliations, and adjustments, guaranteeing traceability, supporting documentation, and regulatory compliance. Invoicing for Argentina and USA.
How We Envision This Role
We're not seeking someone who just executes predefined tasks, but someone with technical criteria, an improvement mindset, and a desire to leave their mark on how the company manages accounting processes.
We want to add someone who combines precision and structure with initiative and a critical eye. Someone who can detect errors, make numbers balance, but also asks:
How can I simplify this process?
What control is missing to prevent this error?
Can I automate this with SQL, a formula, or a simple tool?
You'll work with real processes that directly impact business operations and decision-making.
Your contribution will be crucial in making financial information more reliable, closing processes more agile, and accounting risks controlled.
We're looking for someone who doesn't run from chaos, but organizes it. Someone who brings their experience and wants to build something better, every single day.
