Meticulous Accounting Specialist

Looking for a role where your accounting expertise actually shapes how a fast-growing international business runs? Join us and help strengthen the accounting backbone that lets Laminar scale across borders, cleanly and with confidence.

This is not a “close the same local books every month” kind of accounting role. We are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys thinking beyond one country's rulebook, applying international accounting best practices, and bringing consistency to a multi-entity group.

At Laminar, your work won't disappear into spreadsheets no one reads. Your insights, ownership, and ideas will directly influence how we account for and report on a growing global business.

We are Laminar Projects!

If you’ve already heard about us, you’re probably reading this because you’re tired of the typical, chaotic ways of doing things in construction. But in case you haven’t, we’re a high-end project management consultancy and tech developer with a focus on upgrading the way construction projects are delivered.

Improving construction strengthens the very foundation of human civilisation. (Check out our short film about it.)

We bring transparency and control to projects through a pragmatic mix of the latest tech, our own processes, and a big dose of common sense. We then take our deep understanding of these projects and we invest heavily into developing the digital solutions that anyone can use to deliver their projects better. (Check out Shape, our construction management tech, to see what we’re doing.)

The core of all this is our true secret sauce: our people. We only recruit the very best, both in capability and personality. We’re deeply focused on designing a new type of organisation that’s optimised for the flourishing of the people in the team first and foremost. People who join us develop fast as a whole person in ways they never imagined. (Read more about our vision and missions.)

This approach has allowed us to grow from just two people in 2017 to over 220 today. We have a stable, repeat client base across infrastructure and complex building projects in the UK and internationally, and we’re still growing fast. Joining us isn’t just some “job”. It’s a transformative educational experience. We challenge you to be your best self in all aspects of life. There are many diverse and interesting challenges available. It’s up to you to guide yourself into whichever areas you’re most interested – we’ll enable it.

(Get to know us better by watching a few more of our videos.)

Core values for a good life

A life of human flourishing is all about meaningful relationships and challenging yourself to create a positive impact, so our values reflect the four levels of relationships that each of us has:

Grow yourself – your relationship with yourself

Care about people – your relationship with others around you

Execute to greatness – your relationship with your team

Build civilisation – your relationship with humanity and the world

We enshrined our values in our vision

We exist so that everyone in our team can flourish in a high-impact community that

• Connects us with meaningful relationships
• Inspires us to develop ourselves to become better humans
• Empowers us to pursue our own learning adventures
• By first doing this, we can achieve the highest levels of value for the world.

And enable the achievement of our vision through our two missions

• To fully digitalise the construction of human civilisation
• To create a new type of organisation that enables human flourishing while delivering a huge positive impact on society

The Role

Purpose of the role

Accounting at Laminar is not just about closing the books each month. It's about strengthening the financial backbone of a company that is scaling fast, globally, and with high standards.

We are looking for a Meticulous Accounting Specialist, with 5+ years of accounting experience, to help us keep our accounting accurate, consistent, and internationally sound across multiple entities: month-end close, reconciliations, financial reporting, and the application of international accounting best practices rather than a single country's GAAP.

This is a role for someone who enjoys bringing structure to complexity, cares about accuracy, and takes ownership. Someone who notices when numbers don't add up, asks the right questions, and genuinely cares about doing things properly across borders, not just within one jurisdiction.

You'll work closely with external accountants and auditors in each jurisdiction, the wider Finance Team, and stakeholders across the business to make sure our accounting is reliable, consistent, and scalable as we add entities.

This role is for people who like being hands-on with the numbers. Not just reviewing reports from afar, but actually shaping how accounting works day to day across a multi-entity group.

Team

Finance at Laminar is much more than reporting numbers and processing payments. We are building the operational and accounting foundation that allows the business to scale globally, responsibly, and sustainably.

Even as a relatively lean team, Finance has a huge impact across the company. We care deeply about accounting accuracy, financial stability, strong controls, and consistency across the entities and countries where we operate.

We want to build an accounting function that thinks in terms of the whole group, applies international best practice consistently, and gets sharper as we grow.

That means the fundamentals matter a lot here: the books need to close accurately and on time and financial information needs to be trustworthy and comparable across entities. But beyond that, we want people who challenge inconsistent practices, improve processes, automate repetitive work, and help us build a better accounting function for the future.

Your top 4 objectives

Keep our accounting accurate, complete, and closed on time across all entities

Apply international accounting best practices consistently, rather than defaulting to a single country's GAAP

Strengthen controls and reconciliations across multi-entity and intercompany balances

Help build a scalable accounting function that supports global growth, improving and automating our routines
