Job Description

Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?

At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.

To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.

Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.

While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only. In-person participation is required throughout the year. Team and company-wide offsites are held multiple times annually to foster collaboration, connection, and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported.

Team/ Role Paragraph:

As part of the Finance org, the Cyprus Finance function supports our MiFID regulated entity Coinbase Financial Services Europe Ltd (CBFSE), ensuring financial leadership, regulatory compliance, accurate reporting, and strong governance.

We are seeking a highly skilled Accountant to join our Finance team in Cyprus. This is a remote-first opportunity. You will oversee critical accounting functions, ensure accurate financial reporting, and maintain compliance with internal controls and regulatory requirements. You'll collaborate cross-functionally with product, compliance, and engineering teams to ensure our financial reporting accurately reflects our rapidly evolving crypto business.

  • Assist with various areas of the company’s operational accounting, recording daily journals and creating supporting schedules
  • Preparation of the CBFSE daily reconciliation and other periodic reports, as required.

  • Cross-functional collaboration with FP&A, Tax, Treasury, and Source-To-Pay teams to ensure proper accounting and financial reporting
  • Analyze data against business drivers to identify trends / issues
  • Support CySEC, Central bank of Cyprus and other Cyprus Investment Firm (CIF) related regulatory reporting.
  • Provide support for internal and external audits related to specific areas of responsibility
  • Maintain up-to-date process documentation and procedures as assigned
  • Collaborate on ad hoc financial information requests and analyses and other special projects as assigned

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

  • Minimum of 3 years’ experience in an accounting or finance role within a CIF and/or a Big Four firm and/or the financial or fintech industry.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or a related field; professional qualifications such as ACCA, ACA, or CPA are preferred.
  • CySEC certifications (e.g. Advanced and/or AML Certificate) are preferred.
  • Strong knowledge and practical experience in IFRS.

  • Able to work well in a dynamic environment and be able to recommend and implement process improvements.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Strong work ethic and team player.

Nice to haves:
