Accounting Associate

Are you the kind of person who actually enjoys getting the little things right? Do you find it oddly satisfying when your bank reconciliation lands on the exact amount? Have you ever color-coded a spreadsheet just because it felt right? If you’re quietly nodding to all of this — we think you’re going to feel right at home with us.

At Norig, accounting isn’t a behind-the-scenes grind. It’s the lifeblood of clarity, structure, and smart business decisions. We’re looking for an Accounting Associate who isn’t just here to tick boxes, but to help build the systems that help us scale.

This role is perfect for someone early in their career who wants to learn fast, contribute meaningfully, and grow into a future finance leader. You’ll work closely with the Finance & Admin Lead, roll up your sleeves on day-to-day operations, and build the kind of habits and skills that will shape your career for years.

• Mandatory to have minimum 6 months experience with accounting software Microsoft Business Central Dynamic 365.

• Solid understanding of VAT and bank reconciliations

• Detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and not afraid to ask questions

• Strong communication skills (you’ll be talking to people, not just numbers) Nice to Have

• Experience juggling multiple entity accounts or intercompany transactions
