We do this by our values-driven culture—one that enables you to Be Seen, Be Yourself, and Do Your Best Work.

About You

As Director of Revenue Accounting, you will own all aspects of revenue accounting and reporting at AppDirect. You will partner closely with Finance, FP&A, Sales, Legal, and Product to ensure compliance with ASC 606, streamline revenue operations, and scale processes as our business continues rapid global growth. This is a highly visible leadership role reporting to the VP, Global Controller, with frequent interaction with the CFO and executive team.

What you’ll do and how you’ll have an impact

• Lead revenue recognition & compliance for SaaS, marketplace, and services agreements, ensuring full compliance with ASC 606.
• Oversee monthly/quarterly revenue close, reconciliations, and revenue reporting — ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and scalability.
• Manage and develop the revenue accounting team, building capabilities in contract review, billing, and revenue analytics.
• Partner with Sales & Legal to review contracts, identify key revenue terms, and guide structuring for compliance and business outcomes.
• Collaborate with FP&A to provide insights on ARR, churn, deferred revenue, and revenue forecasts.
• Drive systems optimization by working with RevOps and IT to improve ERP (e.g., NetSuite) and revenue impacting tools (HubSpot, Marketplace, etc).
• Own audit & SOX readiness related to revenue, acting as primary point of contact with external auditors.
• Support strategic initiatives, such as pricing changes, new product launches, or M&A revenue integrations — ensuring acquired entities’ revenue policies, contracts, and systems align seamlessly with AppDirect’s standards.

What We’re Looking For

• 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including at least 4–5 years in a SaaS/subscription environment.
• Deep expertise in ASC 606 and multi-element arrangements (software, SaaS, usage-based, professional services).
• CPA required (Big 4 or national firm experience highly preferred).
• Strong background in revenue accounting leadership, building and mentoring teams.
• Experience with ERP and revenue systems (NetSuite Advanced Revenue Module).
• Proven ability to partner cross-functionally with Sales, Legal, FP&A, and Engineering.
• Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a “systems thinker” approach.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex accounting concepts to non-finance stakeholders.
