About the role
- Own key areas of the monthly close, including timelines, checklists, journal entries, and review-ready support.
- Prepare and/or review complex reconciliations and rollforwards (accruals, payroll, deferred items, reserves as applicable).
- Build and enforce a clean close cadence: cutoff discipline, variance analysis, and clear ownership.
- Partner with FP&A to ensure actuals are reliable and variances are understood (and not explained away).
- Strengthen accounting operations: improve workflows for expense coding, approvals, and documentation.
- Support audit/tax readiness: maintain PBC-ready support, respond to requests, and drive issues to resolution.
- Implement lightweight internal controls appropriate for our stage (segregation, approvals, change logs, close sign-offs).
- Help evaluate and improve tools/systems (ERP, expense platform, AP tools) and establish scalable processes.
- Mentor junior teammates as the team grows (review work, level up documentation and rigor).
Requirements
- 4+ years of accounting experience; Big 4 background preferred.
- Experience in an operating environment (startup/scale-up or public company) where you participated in a real close cycle.
- Demonstrated ownership of meaningful close areas (not just assisting).
- Strong technical accounting fundamentals and sound judgment (knowing when to escalate).
- Strong Excel/Sheets skills; comfort working with large datasets and imperfect inputs.
- Clear communication and cross-functional partnering. You’re able to push for what’s needed without creating friction.
- Applicants must be based in the United States.
Benefits
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Professional development opportunities
