Job Description

Who we are

WeSki is a self-service ski trip booking platform built for the modern traveler. Our vision is simple: make great ski experiences available to everyone. Customers build and book a fully custom ski holiday in minutes, combining flights, accommodation, transfers, ski passes, equipment and lessons in one seamless flow.

Behind the scenes, our technology evaluates millions of trip combinations in real time. We dynamically connect inventory from thousands of suppliers, automatically optimize which components we bundle together, and present only options that really work. What used to take hours of research and coordination now takes a few clicks, and delivers better results.

Every trip is fully customizable. Customers build it themselves with the security and support of a regulated holiday provider. Behind every booking, dependencies across suppliers are orchestrated in real time, at scale, spanning 384 resorts in 21 countries across Europe, North America, Asia, and Oceania.

We've recently crossed $100M in annual sales, including a $1M single day. Growth is accelerating, unit economics are strong, and the business funds its own growth. We operate in a ~$100B global ski market with no technology-native leader. The industry is still dominated by traditional tour operators whose business models have barely evolved in decades. This is a rare opportunity to define the future of ski travel at global scale.

The role

We're looking for a hands-on Controller to own accounting operations and financial controls as we scale a multi-entity, multi-currency travel-tech business. You'll lead consolidation across our entities - including our UK and Netherlands operations, own both statutory audits, and drive a faster, more accurate close by combining strong technical accounting judgment with modern, AI-assisted tooling. You'll report to the Head of Finance and work closely with our external auditors and tax advisors.

What you'll do

  • Manage full-cycle intercompany accounting across multi-currency operations including FX translation, transfer pricing, and opening/closing balances.
  • Own the UK & Netherlands entities alignment, books, and statutory audits end-to-end
  • Play a key role in monthly, quarterly, and annual close process end-to-end across all entities
  • Control the general ledger, journal entries, account reconciliations, and chart of accounts
  • Ensure US GAAP compliance including revenue recognition (ASC 606) for bookings, cancellations, and refunds on a departure-date basis
  • Oversee consolidation of financial statements across all entities
  • Own accounting positions and memos - including leases and R&D capitalization
  • Coordinate tax compliance (VAT, corporate tax, foreign vendor payments) with external advisors and tax authorities
  • Design, document, and maintain internal controls over financial reporting
  • Evaluate and implement AI-powered tools and automation to reduce manual work and accelerate close

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance + CPA
  • 4+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 2+ years as Controller or Assistant Controller
  • Hands-on intercompany accounting - balances, transfer pricing, journal entries across multiple legal entities - required
  • Financial statement consolidation across multiple entities and currencies - required
  • Hands-on experience with Priority ERP - required
  • Strong working knowledge of US GAAP including ASC 606
  • Experience managing external audits, ideally including UK and/or Netherlands statutory audits
  • 2+ years of experience in a high-growth tech company (travel-tech, e-commerce, marketplace, or payments strongly preferred)
  • Practical experience using AI or automation tools to streamline the monthly close

Nice to have

  • Prior ownership of a UK and/or Netherlands entity including statutory audit
  • International tax / VAT experience
  • Experience implementing or migrating ERP systems.
