Accounting and Finance Assistant
- Full time
- Zagreb office
- Hybrid
Are we looking for you? If you’re curious about how accounting works from the inside, you value order and precision, and want to gain your first professional experience through real hands-on work rather than just observing – this is your opportunity. This is a full-time position, also open to final-year economics students.
Why Lemax?
Lemax is a Croatian product company developing a SaaS solution for travel agencies and tour operators worldwide – currently working with more than 40 clients across 30+ countries on 6 continents. Behind the software is a team of about 70 people who believe that respectful relationships, trust, and a healthy work pace are the foundation of good work.
Your role
As an Assistant in the Accounting and Finance department, you’ll be part of a small but cohesive team that manages the company’s entire accounting and financial operations. You’ll work alongside an experienced colleague who will guide you through the processes step by step, with a clear development plan.
What you’ll do
- Recording incoming and outgoing invoices
- Recording bank statements
- Other accounting entries and document processing
- Fixed asset records
- Petty cash operations, travel orders, and local transport reimbursement calculations
- Reconciling open items with customers and suppliers
- Recording employee vacation and sick leave
- Tracking and processing student work contracts
- Administrative support – correspondence, certificates, reports for the Croatian Bureau of Statistics (DZS)
- Document archiving
What we’re looking for
Must have
- Secondary/associate/bachelor’s degree in economics or a related field – or final-year student in the field
- 0-3 years of experience in accounting
- Basic knowledge of accounting processes and bookkeeping
- Advanced knowledge of MS Office tools (with an emphasis on Excel)
- Proficiency in spoken and written English
Nice to have
-
Experience with ERP/accounting software (Pantheon experience is a plus)
What we especially value
- Precision and attention to detail – in this job, mistakes are costly
- Structure and discipline in organizing your own work
- Proactivity – asking questions and suggesting improvements rather than waiting for instructions
- Willingness to do routine tasks well, since that’s the foundation you build on
- Taking ownership – completing tasks reliably and asking for clarification when unsure, rather than guessing
- Adaptability – embracing changes in daily tasks without resistance and helping out with various administrative work
- Curiosity – asking questions to understand the bigger picture and how your work fits into the company’s success
- Collaboration – communicating clearly and kindly, working well with colleagues, and stepping in when needed
- Reliability – consistently handling tasks on time without needing reminders, aware that in accounting, delays carry a real cost (legal deadlines, payments, reports)
What we offer
Within our Accounting and Finance department
- The chance to try your hand at all parts of the accounting job, not just one narrow segment
- A small, cohesive team where questions get resolved immediately through conversation, not through a waiting queue
- A real mentor, not just a formal “buddy” – a colleague who will guide you through processes and the ERP system every day
- A clear, already-defined development plan
- The chance to turn theoretical knowledge from university into practical experience that’s actually put to use
- We’re not the biggest team, but we’re a team where you’ll be doing real work from day one, not just observing
As part of Lemax
- 3 extra days of annual leave, with synchronized winter/summer breaks
