This is a role for someone who wants to own the numbers and the systems that produce them. Someone who can do the accounting cleanly, and who's always seeing how it could be done better.
This is a small finance team supporting a large business eleven gaming venues across Ireland and Northern Ireland, our online casino, and everything that comes with them. You'll own real deliverables: month-end close, balance sheet reconciliations, VAT and tax compliance, and the management reporting the business runs on. The numbers have to be right, the audit trail has to be tidy, and the deadlines are real.
But here's what makes this role different: we don't just want the work done we want it rebuilt. The manual journal pulls, the copy-paste between systems, the spreadsheet someone built years ago that nobody fully understands. As you do the work, you'll modernise it with proper AI tools, full access from day one, and a leadership team that already works this way.
Coastline Gaming is one of Ireland's most established gaming and entertainment operators, with eleven venues nationwide and our fast-growing online casino. For over 40 years, we've been creating spaces where people come to enjoy themselves not a startup that might not be around tomorrow. We're stable, we're growing, and we invest in the people who run the business day to day.
One more thing, and it matters: we're an AI-forward company. Everyone here, up to Senior Management and Director level, uses AI tools daily for real work and finance is no exception. We hire for capability, not seniority. Part-qualified, newly qualified, a few years post-qualification, or qualified by experience where you sit on the ladder matters less than whether you can do clean accounting work and genuinely build with AI. If you've been quietly automating things in your current role and wondering why nobody around you gets it this is the role those projects were preparing you for.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Reporting to the Financial Controller, your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
Month-end close across our trading entities, owning journals, reconciliations and lead schedules. You do the work, then tighten the cycle as you go
This list isn't a boundary. If you see a process that's slower or messier than it should be, improving it is part of the job and you'll have the tools to actually do it.
WHO YOU ARE
A real finance background part-qualified or qualified (ACCA / ACA / CIMA / ATI), or genuinely hands-on accounts experience: month-end, reconciliations, VAT, payroll. The exact qualification matters less than whether you can do the work cleanly
You build with AI, not just chat with it you've made workflows, automations or tools that you (or others) actually use. It doesn't need to be enterprise-scale. It needs to be real, and you should be able to walk us through it
