Accounting Specialist (Member)

Belong operates a used smartphone sales, purchase, and rental business as an internal startup of Itochu Corporation. This role is part of the Finance and Accounting function, which works with business teams to provide financial information for management decisions.

The position handles monthly closing, including closing procedures and balance confirmation; daily accounting for the standalone entity; annual closing, including audit support; preparation of cash-flow trend statements; and preparation of budget-versus-actual reporting materials. As the role holder becomes familiar with the work, the scope is expected to expand to improving daily processes, aggregating budgets and analyzing budget performance, supporting overseas closing, building internal control systems, improving the accounting system, and delivering accounting training for internal employees. The scope of duties may change to other work designated by the company.

The Accounting team includes employees, dispatched staff, and contractors, and operates as a professional group with different working arrangements. It works alongside the Management Administration team, which brings together information systems, legal, corporate planning, internal control, and risk management functions. The department is described as calm and conscientious, while also allowing members to propose improvements rather than simply following past practices. The role can support future development from financial accounting toward management accounting or corporate planning.

The named tools are Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, Keeper, MDM using Jamf Pro and Intune, iboss, and other systems. The main work device is a Mac, with Windows used for some tasks.

The stated workplace is Belong's Tokyo headquarters at 6-4-10 Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo, Akasaka ZEN Building, fourth floor. The company plans to move to a new office near Aoyama-itchome Station around autumn 2026, and work will remain at the current location until the move. The stated scope of workplace changes includes company-designated locations, including places where remote work is performed.

The selection process consists of document screening, two to three interviews with a reference check, and an offer meeting.
