Compliance Accounting Manager

Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

• Oversee and support a Senior Accountant, while also assisting the Senior Manager in coaching and developing junior compliance team members.

• Assist with cross-functional projects and ad-hoc accounting initiatives

🙌 We’d love to hear from you if you have

• A degree in Accounting, with a CPA or equivalent qualification
