## Description

**☎️ About fonio**  
fonio.ai is a market leader in AI agents for SMBs. We started with phone agents and now also cover WhatsApp, web chat, email and a full AI phone system. We’re growing fast across Europe, the UK, the US and Brazil.  

We grew from $1M to $10M ARR in under 12 months, then went from $10M to $20M in about 8 weeks. Today we serve 10,000+ customers.  

We move fast, take ownership, give direct feedback, and avoid politics and unnecessary meetings.  
**Join one of the fastest-growing companies! 🚀**

## **Your role**

You make sure Fonio's numbers are right and can stand up to auditors and investors. That means owning the monthly and year-end close, and solving tricky questions such as how to account for pay-per-minute revenue across nine markets and more.

As new entities and products launch, you set up the accounting so it scales, rather than patching it later.

## **What you'll do**

- **In-house accounting:** Take over accounting from our external provider and build the internal function.

- **Operational ownership:** Own day-to-day accounting, including AP/AR, reconciliations, master data and bookkeeping.

- **Monthly close & reporting:** Own monthly closing and recurring statutory filings (VAT, ZM, Intrastat, etc.), working closely with our tax advisors.

- **Revenue recognition:** make sure usage-based revenue is recognised correctly and consistently.

- **Multi-entity:** run intercompany accounting, currencies and consolidation as UK and US entities come online, and integrate acquisitions such as fluently.

- **Controls and policies:** write accounting policies and controls that hold up in investor due diligence.

- **Oversight:** keep billing, payables and payroll postings accurate, and improve processes and systems as volume grows.

## **What You Bring**

**Must-haves**

- 4 to 7 years in accounting, ideally with audit firm training plus time at a tech or SaaS company.

- Qualified or part-qualified (Bilanzbuchhalter, ACCA, CPA or similar).

- Has owned month-end and year-end close and statutory accounts under Austrian GAAP (UGB).

- Confident handling audits and technical accounting questions.

- Fluent in English.

**Nice-to-haves**

- Revenue recognition for subscription or usage-based pricing.

- Multi-entity consolidation, or IFRS exposure.

- Experience with post-merger integration or investor due diligence.

- Familiar with modern finance tools (e.g. BMD, DATEV, Xero or Stripe).

## **What We Offer**

- €70,000 to €90,000

- Equity

- Daily lunch and dinner

- Regular team off-sites

- Equipment of your choice

- Relocation support

- On-site in Vienna, working directly with the core-team

## **Hiring Process**

1. 15 min intro call

2. 30 min skill interview

3. 20 min culture fit

**How we hire?**  
We're AI-native, including in hiring. AI helps us to remain efficient, but people make every decision.  

fonio is an equal opportunity employer. We hire for talent and ownership, whatever your background is.  
Need an adjustment in the process? Just tell us.  

Please send your CV in English. Then knock us off our feet 🚀
