About the role

Original posting from ATOMS via Greenhouse

Who we are 

Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.

Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.

Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.

This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.

We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.

If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.

About the role

This role will be responsible for supporting the controllership team on all complex accounting areas- from setting the policies to supporting and delivering the implementation.

This role will also play a key role in driving our global statutory accounts compliance process, coordinating internal and external stakeholders and auditors.

What you’ll do

Guide on all technical accounting issues as they arise around the business including:

Consolidations

Reconciliations

Coordination of global statutory accounts process and management of relationship with outsourced accounting providers and auditors

Supporting the implementation of any new standards, maintaining accounting policies, and ensuring compliance 

Revenue recognition

Lease accounting

What we’re looking for

Strong accountant with deep knowledge of IFRS

Exposure to US GAAP, is advantageous 

Ability to perform independent technical research on complex accounting issues 

Highly resilient, comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

Excellent verbal and written communication skills- able to communicate complex topics to a wide audience

Excellent collaborator among cross-functional teams

Why join us

At Atoms, you’ll work on one of the defining challenges of our time—bringing automation into the physical world to drive real, lasting impact. We exist to uncover valuable unknown truths and turn them into progress, which means constantly pushing beyond what’s known and building what doesn’t yet exist. The work is ambitious and often challenging, but it’s grounded in a shared sense of purpose and a team committed to seeing it through together. Our work only matters if it serves others, and we know that meaningful progress depends on the trust of the people we serve and the strength of our team—so we invest in both, creating an environment where you can do your best work and grow.

What else you need to know

This role is based in our London office. Atoms is a company driven by invention and continuous change - we are constantly reimagining our industries, building new products, and refining how we operate. We do our best work together. That’s why all of our office-based teams work onsite, five days a week.

Ready to join us as we serve those who serve others?
