About The Role

We are looking for a detail‑oriented Finance & Accounting Analyst with 5‑7 years of experience to support our multi‑entity accounting operations and business unit financial reporting.

• Ensure assigned close tasks are completed accurately and on schedule

Expense Management & Operational Reporting (5‑15%)

• Review expense coding for accuracy and consistency across BUs
• Monitor expense trends and flag anomalies or policy issues proactively
• Maintain reporting dashboards and BU‑level financial templates
• Ensure data integrity between accounting systems and reporting outputs
• Improve workflows between QuickBooks, Ramp, Syft, and other platforms

Process Improvement & Documentation (5%)

• Identify opportunities to streamline reporting and close processes
• Document financial processes and improve cross‑functional workflows
• Strengthen controls and data quality across systems
• Support audit preparation and financial controls documentation

What Success Looks Like

In Month 1‑2

• Independently manage assigned reconciliations and reporting tasks

• Begin building relationships with GM stakeholders

In Month 3‑6

• BU variance analysis is insightful and proactive
• Syft dashboards and board packages run smoothly with minimal rework
• Support month‑end close efficiently and catch issues before escalation

In Month 6‑12

• Operate as the go‑to person for BU financial reporting and GM questions
• Proactively identify trends and insights before being asked
• Contribute meaningful process improvements that save time or increase accuracy
• Provide reliable backup coverage for Assistant Controller when needed

Requirements

What Makes Someone Successful In This Role

• You think in systems—proposing better ways and building them when reporting is manual or fragile.
• You balance precision with speed—knowing when “perfect” matters and when “good enough” is fine.
• You translate technical accounting into plain English for GMs and rigorous detail for the Assistant Controller.
• You want to grow your finance skillset—motivated to deepen expertise in SaaS financial operations and expand from execution into strategic analysis.
