Klaus Reinhardt
Senior Financial Accountant | Bilanzbuchhalter (IHK)
Rheingau Industrietechnik GmbH
Dear Hiring Team,
I am writing to express my interest in the Accountant position at Rheingau Industrietechnik GmbH. With an established background as a certified Bilanzbuchhalter (IHK) specializing in German GAAP (HGB) compliance, general ledger administration, and statutory reporting, I welcome the opportunity to support your finance team with dependable financial statement preparation and organized closing processes.
In my current position as Senior Accountant at Rheinbogen Fracht Services GmbH, I lead the preparation of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements compliant with HGB and corporate tax guidelines for a transport fleet operation with 48 million euros in annual turnover. My responsibilities include supervising general ledger accounting, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and fixed asset depreciation across three domestic subsidiaries, as well as coordinating audit engagements with external auditors and tax advisors. Furthermore, I partner with operations management to refine cost center accounting within SAP S/4HANA.
Previously, at Severin Werkzeugbau AG, I managed balance sheet accounting, intercompany reconciliations, and VAT declarations, while implementing automated accounts payable workflows using DATEV Unternehmen online that reduced document cycle times by 35 percent. Grounded in my Diplom-Kaufmann studies at the University of Cologne, my day-to-day focus remains on maintaining meticulous internal controls, ledger integrity, and prompt regulatory reporting.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background in HGB financial statement preparation, general ledger supervision, and audit coordination aligns with your operational requirements. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Klaus Reinhardt
