About us


We are fast-growing company headquartered in a vibrant office space in central Copenhagen. Our finance team works closely with C-level management and across departments, supporting both daily operations and strategic decision-making.

ViaBill operates at the frontier of FinTech and has partnerships with global giants such as Apple, MasterCard, UniCredit, and many more.


We value responsibility, ownership, and attention to detail. We are looking for people who want to build something solid, improve how things are done, and grow with the company.


The environment is hands-on, ambitious, and pragmatic, with a strong focus on automation, process improvement, and meeting deadlines in a fast-paced scale-up setting.


The role


We are looking for an experienced and reliable accountant to join our finance team at HQ in Copenhagen. This role is ideal for a senior accountant who wants ownership without full people-management responsibility.


You will join a well-functioning finance team that is pro-actively being strengthened to ensure stable, predictable performance. This role is designed for someone who wants to take ownership of core accounting areas while working in close cooperation with both junior colleagues and finance leadership.


This is not a narrowly defined bookkeeping role: flexibility, structure, and responsibility are key as well as inter-personal skills for cooperation across departments and leading more junior team members.


You will have end-to-end ownership of key accounting areas and act as a first point of contact for operational accounting matters.
