European Statutory Reporting Manager

About this role

Company Overview Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas. These include airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, aerial refueling, special air missions, aerial firefighting, and advanced simulation. We own the whole stack: designing, building, and operating turnkey capabilities that give our partners decisive, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats.

Our operating model is built around three interlocking pillars. The Support Groups provide a global shared-service – spanning people, finance, platform, operations, legal, and engagement. This frees up our Core Groups, who develop and own mission capabilities end-to-end, to focus entirely on delivery. The Market Groups apply a regional lens, ensuring that our agile and adaptable capabilities remain aligned to the wicked problems that matter most to our partners across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific.

At the heart of our model is a simple but powerful idea: be a true partner with skin in the game. Our partners need effects, not just equipment. By owning the full stack – from the lab to the field – we are able to drive a continuous cycle of innovation that keeps our partners ahead. It's a fast-moving, intellectually demanding environment where talented people are given real responsibility, work on problems that matter, and contribute to an enterprise that is growing quickly and deliberately.

Headquartered in Washington, DC, with facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, as well as Continental Europe and Asia-Pacific. Position Summary Metrea is looking for a European Statutory Reporting Manager to take ownership of financial reporting and statutory compliance across our European entities — a role at the heart of a fast-moving, multi-jurisdictional business. Reporting to the European Financial Controller, you'll lead statutory accounts, audit coordination, and tax and regulatory reporting, acting as the key link between our finance function and external auditors, tax advisors, and legal counsel.

Reporting to the European Financial Controller, you'll bring strong technical expertise — particularly in UK GAAP — along with the ability to lead and develop a high-performing team. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys complexity, takes pride in getting the details right, and wants to shape how reporting works across a growing international business. What You'll Do Own and manage the statutory and regulatory reporting calendar across all European entities, ensuring compliance with local filing requirements and proactive management of deadlines.
