The role

description

Hello!

I'm Leyre, the recruiter for this position. I love writing and reading horror stories, but what I enjoy most is a good family meal with the people I love most. If you like seventies and eighties music as much as I do, we'll definitely connect!

Maybe this is the tenth job posting you've read today, on the sofa with Netflix on in the background, or in the middle of a career change... and they all look the same to you.

I'll be straight with you: at Zurich, we're not perfect, but we're pretty awesome! And if you want to know why, keep reading.

First of all, THANK YOU for taking an interest in our company. We know that searching for new opportunities can be a challenge, but... don't worry, the right one will come along!

Let's get to the point! I'll try to summarize our DNA for you in 2 points :

  • We love volunteering, but we prefer being activists for change. How? By focusing on young people at risk of social exclusion or by fighting climate change with actions like reforesting forests in Madrid and Doñana National Park. In 2025, we logged more than 28,000 hours of activism.
  • At Zurich, we say it loud and clear: we're proud of our colors and we believe a diverse team makes a difference. Here, we don't talk about disability, we talk about ability. Being your true self is our priority, with no closets standing between us and no glass ceilings. 50% of our management positions are held by women (including the Executive Committee). Did you know we produce our own podcasts about sexual identity? We're building a company where everyone is welcome.

And you might be wondering: Leyre, what will my day-to-day look like wearing the blue shirt? I love that you're asking that question (I asked it myself back in the day):

  • Participation in the preparation of the pack delivered to the Group, as well as in the performance reports required by Management.
  • Participate both in the preparation of the plan for the coming years and in the regular forecasting process, working with local Business Partners to ensure that results are solid and completed on time.
  • Perform financial analyses of all aspects of business performance to support the development and execution of the business strategy.
  • Analyze financial data to identify areas for improvement.
  • Implement automations and improvements in PPM processes.
  • Report and analyze under local and IFRS regulations.
  • Develop a broad knowledge of the business to support the business and management.

By now, you're probably wondering, "Do I fit in here?"

Don't worry—I'm not going to ask you to save the planet or meet 100% of the requirements.

  • University degree or equivalent.
  • Between 1 and 2 years of experience, ideally in controlling, accounting, or external audit.
  • Ability to work under pressure and manage multiple tasks.
  • Flexibility and willingness to work in a dynamic environment.
  • Ability to take on responsibilities and manage your own scope of work.
  • Advanced knowledge of Excel. Knowledge of tools such as Power Query or Power BI is a plus.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work in a team.
  • Good level of English.

Right now, you're either feeling that excitement like when a pair of pants fits perfectly, or you're thinking, "this isn't for me" (and if it's not, no worries—we'll cross paths again in the future). You can play matchmaker and share my contact with anyone you think might be a good fit.

At Zurich, we really enjoy life, we love living it to the fullest. You'll tell me how we can make you happy, but I love being able to balance my work and personal life. Here, flexible working hours and true digital disconnection are a reality.

#BecauseWeAreZurich, you can choose the benefits that best suit your needs.After all, there's no accounting for taste.

  • We offer a super flexible hybrid model so you can work how and where you want within Spain. Plus, we'll provide you with all the equipment you need to work comfortably from home.
  • We believe in the philosophy of learning by doing, so you can move to other areas locally or internationally through our "Talent in Motion" program. And to keep supporting your development and growth: English classes, training, and a personalized mentoring program.
  • We want to shake up your expectations about flexible compensation. With our benefits package, you can choose what works best for you and your needs: health insurance, childcare, training, restaurant tickets... and much more!
  • We love putting smiles on people's faces, and at Zurich we know that's easier than it seems, which is why we're activists. And why not dedicate a whole day to the cause you care about most?
  • Referral bonus if you recommend a talent like you. We're not looking for anyone perfect, but if you know someone who's awesome, share my contact with them—I'd love to meet them.
  • If you have a competitive spirit, at Zurich we're going for gold! Marathons, races, gym discounts, and much more. 3, 2, 1... warm up, here we go!
  • Are you more of a beach person or a mountain person? You'll get 25 vacation days, plus the insurance day and your birthday off, so you can enjoy what you love most. But don't be fooled—real disconnection. Because yes, we all deserve a little break and to enjoy life, which is short.
  • At Zurich, we think about your future and offer you a pension plan and life insurance.
  • We're always looking for the best prices for you! You'll have access to thousands of discounts on insurance and banking products.

If you've made it this far, THANK YOU for reading. What did you think? Are we awesome or what?

If you felt butterflies in your stomach and think we're a good match, send up smoke signals—or your CV, if smoke isn't your thing.

And to wrap things up, do you want to know what other people at Zurich think? I'd say we're still ranked at the top in Top Employers Spain as our calling card, but I encourage you to check out our Glassdoor profile so they can tell you themselves. No tricks, no gimmicks.

I hope to meet you very soon.
