About this role
#WeAreParamount on a mission to unleash the power of content… you in?
We’ve got the brands, we’ve got the stars, we’ve got the power to achieve our mission to entertain the planet – now all we’re missing is… YOU!

Your next step in finance, with real ownership
Are you a couple of years into your accounting career and ready for more than month-end tasks? Join Paramount's Controllership team in Budapest and own the accounting for compensation-related activity across our international networks business.

- Partner with Finance and Operations colleagues across the organisation, and be the person they come to when they need an answer
- Help migrate new accounting activities into Budapest, and standardise how we do things as we grow
- Spot where we can work smarter, then fix it. We want your ideas and we'll give you room to run with them
- Keep our controls strong (SOX) and work with external auditors on quarterly and annual reviews
- Pick up ad hoc analysis and management requests, and support your manager and team when needed
What you bring
- Degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field
- 2+ years of accounting experience across a mix of activities (journals, reconciliations, close)
- A solid grasp of general accounting principles
- Business-level English, written and spoken (B2/C1+)
