The role oversees Accounting Operations (Cash, A/P, A/R) and Accounting Control (General Ledger), and partners closely with FP&A, Technology, and Product/Business teams to ensure accounting, financial reporting, and control requirements are effectively embedded into systems, workflows, and new product development initiatives. This role is expected to operate with strong controllership fluency and to deliver timely and accurate financial reporting outcomes through leadership and collaboration. This position is designed for a senior accounting leader with demonstrated experience across traditional controllership functions and hands-on finance transformation delivery.

  • Partner with Technology & Data teams on integrations, data integrity, and change management controls
  • Explore and leverage AI technologies, as they evolve, to enable more efficient and effective processes while maintaining strong oversight and controls
  • Drive adoption of best practices to support long-term system health and scalability and improve reporting capabilities for finance executives and business partners
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Data and Business teams to support new products, revenue streams, and business models from concept through launch and scale
  • Serve as the accounting representative in cross-functional growth initiatives to ensure accounting and reporting requirements are embedded early and scale effectively
  • Oversee external financial reporting, including GAAP financial statements and required regulatory, lender, and investor reporting
  • Support audit readiness and the implementation of new accounting standards, as applicable
  • Act as a change agent, driving a culture of continuous improvement and innovation across people, processes and technology
  • Develop team members supporting accounting operations, financial reporting, systems, and transformation initiatives

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance or related field
  • CPA license required
  • Experience with ERP implementation/optimization projects
  • Combined Big 4 public accounting and fintech, financial services or other complex regulated industry experience preferred
  • Demonstrated experience in accounting operations and financial close and reporting processes
  • Major hands-on ERP project experience (design, build and optimization)
  • Workday familiarity is a plus
  • Deep understanding of U.S. GAAP, internal controls and financial reporting requirements
  • Outstanding project & change management skills: Ability to manage priorities, meet deadlines, balance multiple initiatives and projects simultaneously, and motivate stakeholders to collaborate
  • Demonstrated ability to partner effectively with cross-functional leaders to influence business outcomes beyond the accounting function, as well as externally with auditors and users of financial reports
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: Self-motivated and eager to identify efficiencies, be hands-on to implement improvements, and champion change
  • Exceptional organization, keen attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
  • Excellent written communication skills including production of clear and concise process documentation
