albo offers financial products to individuals and small and medium businesses in Mexico. Our group includes a regulated electronic payment funds institution, operating subsidiaries and a UK holding company. Our business combines payments, lending, customer balances and subscription services.
About the role
We are looking for an Accounting & Tax Manager to own the accuracy, timeliness and integrity of the group's accounting, financial statements and tax compliance. Reporting to the Financial Controller, you will lead the accounting team and work closely with FP&A;, Treasury, Legal, Compliance, Operations and Technology.
You will turn complex operational data into reliable financial information, maintain clear accounting policies and ensure that every material balance and judgment is supported. This role requires a leader who can manage the team and external advisers while personally reviewing reconciliations, resolving technical issues and delivering under firm deadlines.
What you'll be doing at albo:
Monthly close and financial reporting
Deliver the monthly close by D+10, with clear responsibilities, cutoffs, review checkpoints and escalation of delays. Review accruals, journal entries and balance sheet reconciliations, and resolve aged or unexplained items.
Prepare entity and consolidated financial statements and reporting packages for the Financial Controller's review. Reconcile accounting actuals with FP&A;'s financial model before management reporting, explain differences and maintain a consistent source of financial data.
Own intercompany reconciliations, eliminations, foreign currency translation and the consolidation of the UK holding company and Mexican entities.
Assess the accounting and consolidation treatment of financing trusts and special purpose vehicles with advisers when needed.
Technical accounting and business transactions
Maintain documented IFRS group policies and the bridges to applicable Mexican statutory and regulatory accounting requirements. Prepare technical memos for material judgments and complex transactions.
Oversee lending accounting, including accrued interest, effective interest rates, fees, expected credit losses under IFRS 9, write-offs and recoveries. Reconcile loan servicing data, cash collections and portfolio balances to the general ledger.
Ensure accurate recognition and reconciliation of payment, interchange, subscription and other service revenues, settlement balances, customer funds and related costs. Partner with Treasury and Operations to maintain clear segregation and reconciliation of customer and corporate funds.
Own the accounting analysis and supporting schedules for debt and financing costs, investments, goodwill and intangible asset impairment, deferred taxes and share-based payments. Validate equity and stock option movements against supporting corporate and legal records.
Review new products, partnerships, acquisitions and funding arrangements before implementation, together with the Financial Controller, to define accounting treatment, tax implications, data requirements and controls.
Tax and regulatory reporting
Own the Mexican tax calendar, accurate and timely filings and payments,
accounting-to-tax reconciliations and supporting records. Oversee income tax, VAT, withholding taxes and tax balances, including recoverability and follow-up of refunds and credits.
Coordinate transfer pricing studies and documentation for intercompany services, licences, financing and other transactions. Work with Legal to ensure contracts, invoices and supporting evidence match the accounting and tax treatment.
Coordinate UK and cross-border tax matters with specialist advisers, including withholding taxes, treaty relief and lender documentation. Track requirements and elevate missing information or exposures to the Financial Controller.
Own the financial and accounting components of applicable CNBV and Banco de México reporting, in coordination with Compliance. Reconcile submissions to the books, document reviews and retain evidence of timely filing.
External audits and internal controls
Run the group's annual audit process across Mexico and the UK day to day, under the Financial Controller's oversight. Agree a coordinated timetable, deliver complete supporting schedules, manage queries and ensure financial statements are ready for review, approval and filing within statutory deadlines.
Own audit readiness throughout the year: maintain an organised evidence repository, track outstanding requests and resolve technical matters early. Coordinate UK statutory filing with Legal and the responsible advisers.
Implement controls over cutoff, reconciliations, journal approvals, intercompany transactions, equity and stock options, and supporting documentation. Track audit findings and verify that corrective actions are implemented and effective.
