    The Opportunity

    Worldline Merchant Services - the main Business Line of Worldline with €3.3bn revenue in 2023 out of €4.6bn - are establishing a new entity in the UK: to serve our ambitions in this key market for the Group where we see potential for real business growth as a result of changes in the regulatory landscape due to Brexit.

    Our mission will be to become a market leading provider of acquiring services in the UK, delivering choice, value and new opportunities to merchants of all sizes, from Small and Medium Businesses (SMB) to large merchants (Corporate), as well as pure online players.

    We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Financial Accountant to join the finance team of our newly created legal entity in the UK.

    The Financial Accountant will be responsible for the oversight and management of all items related to balance sheet substantiation; audit; tax; VAT; maintaining accurate financial records; and ensuring compliance with accounting standards and regulations.

    The ideal candidate will have a strong background in accounting, excellent analytical skills, and experience with the audit process.

    Day-to-Day Responsibilities​
