Description

Senior Accounts Payable/Receivable Accountant in trivago's Operational Accounting team in Düsseldorf, responsible for the monthly rhythm of payable and receivable records. You will prepare and review month-end and quarter-end closing tasks, reconciliations, and SOX controls, process customer and vendor tasks, and resolve escalated AP/AR queries. Over time you will own complex reconciliations, improve end-to-end AP and AR processes, support audit requests, and guide less experienced colleagues. The role suits an accounting professional with solid AP/AR grounding, hands-on Microsoft D365 or comparable ERP experience, and the ability to work independently with little oversight.

Requirements

  • A qualification in accounting or equivalent practical experience, with a solid grounding in accounts payable and receivable operations
  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft D365 or a comparable ERP system, and confidence working with data and reporting to handle advanced information requests
  • Judgment to work within broad guidelines with very little oversight, prioritize complex or escalated tasks, recommend better ways of working, and review or guide less experienced colleagues
  • Strong collaboration skills and a learning mindset, and comfort working in English (trivago's company language)
  • A performance mindset with ambitious goals and the determination and resilience to achieve them
  • An open and curious mindset toward AI tools and automation in AP/AR processes
