Financial Controller (Freelance, Remote)

Pareto Publishing is a fast‑growing e‑mail‑marketing company with an audience of 8 million+ engaged subscribers. One thing we do is connecting financial‑services brands (banking, investing, insurance, fintech, and more) with the right readers at scale. As we expand, we need a detail‑oriented Financial Controller to keep our revenue and cost data crystal clear for the leadership team.

Key Responsibilities 🔑

• Pull weekly and monthly revenue figures from internal dashboards and client portals
• Compile vendor invoices and bank‑statement data to produce concise weekly and monthly P&Ls
• Summarise client ad‑campaign revenue (retainers, flat fees) and newsletter CPA/CPL/CPC performance.
• Track usage against annual volume‑based agreements and highlight variances early.
• Improve templates and SOPs so reporting stays accurate even when the pace picks up.

❗Note: This is a management‑accounting role — no statutory or tax filings required ❗

Requirements 📋

• Proven experience creating internal revenue/cost or P&L reports, ideally for a digital‑media, SaaS, or e‑commerce business
• Proficiency with Excel/Google Sheets (pivot tables, lookups; basic SQL a plus)
• Based in a European time zone (preference for Serbia, Croatia, North Macedonia — but we’re open).
• Clear written English; comfortable communicating via Slack

What to Expect 🚀

• Hourly rate: $7–15 USD (depending on skills and experience)
• 100% remote, flexible schedule
• A collaborative team that moves fast and keeps bureaucracy to a minimum
