About Wolt

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

Our Finance team has played a key role in our journey to where we are today - supporting our global operations from our central Helsinki hub has been no easy feat, but this group of dedicated and motivated professionals have made it seem effortless!

As we continue to scale, we’re now looking for an experienced Country Controller to help us focus on our local accounting efforts in Israel. You will sit with the local country team in Tel Aviv but report to the Regional Financial Controller and work directly with the centralized Finance team.

The Country Controller is responsible for local compliance and reporting, while assisting the local teams with accounting related enquiries, such as payment follow- ups, explanations of reports provided to restaurant partners etc.

What makes the Finance team so special is our ‘service first’ approach to the job - we enjoy creating strong communication loops with the wider business, so that bottlenecks are minimized and that things get done quickly and

efficiently.

Everybody is accountable for their own workload and takes pride in being meticulous and precise. We also enjoy learning and developing as we go - it’s important that you share this approach! 🙂

• Manage all aspects of Wolt Israel Accounting; accurate and timely monthly reporting, annual financial statements and other statutory reporting required in these countries
• Responsible for creating fully reconciled financial position in countries listed
• Lead the delivery of local and global finance initiatives, financial process implementation and ensuring the compliance on global policies
• Maintain and strengthen the key internal and external relationships including local auditors, authorities and senior management both locally and internationally
