The Role
We're looking for a Senior Accountant to take ownership of our day-to-day accounting operations and help build a highly effective, highly efficient finance function. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants real ownership: you'll manage cash and controls, keep us compliant across every jurisdiction we operate in, run a tight monthly close, and turn our numbers into insight leadership can act on.
This role also comes with a mandate to modernize how we work. A number of our accounting processes and systems were built for an earlier stage of the company and are due for a refresh. You'll help lead that evolution — improving our systems, tightening our processes, and increasing automation — so the function scales without adding headcount.
You'll report to our Fractional Controller and will oversee a Contracted Jr. Accountant who handles high-volume processing work, so you'll also bring strong judgment, clear communication, and a coaching mindset to reviewing someone else's work.
