Who We Are

As featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, and Bloomberg, TomoCredit is at the forefront of Fintech innovation. Headquartered in San Francisco, we're on a mission to revolutionize the credit system and democratize access to banking.

It is difficult to build credit if you don't have credit. TomoCredit is trying to solve this chicken‑and‑egg problem by ditching credit history altogether. We are not a financial services company – we are a data company. The data we get helps us make the credit market more accessible to those new to it. We are tirelessly working on finding new and better ways to help our customers succeed through responsible fiscal behavior and we're looking for people like you to help shape tomorrow at Tomo – help millions build brighter financial futures.

The Role

We're looking for a rockstar Assistant Controller/Accounting Manager who will be intimately involved in every aspect of the financial function and make a significant impact to our business decisions. You will play a key role in analyzing trends, ensuring the integrity of data, managing the financial needs of the company to scale efficiently and effectively and much more! We are looking for someone who is passionate, detail‑oriented, organized and works well both independently and with stakeholders to join our fast‑growing team. You will also need to build many of the processes and reporting from scratch since we are a startup.

What You'll Be Doing

• Maintain full ownership of the general ledger financial close process and related activities to ensure complete and accurate financials in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including managing/reviewing close activities such as journal entries and account reconciliations within the established close timeline.
• Work with external auditors and provide needed information for the annual audit.
• Oversee the entire accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls functions.
• Assist with the capital planning, cash management, budgeting and forecasting process.
• Prepare weekly & monthly financial and loan portfolio reports with associated commentary and participate in meetings with stakeholders.
• Develop financial models and ad‑hoc analysis to support strategic decisions.
• Manage the vendor contract database to ensure accuracy and validity and work alongside business units to update accordingly.
• Perform routine and ad‑hoc analysis and suggest creative solutions to reduce costs and improve financial performance.
• Manage Bill.com platform and oversee end‑to‑end processing of vendor bills and payments.
• Respond to investor and lender due diligence requests.
• Prepare presentations for Senior Management.
• Frequently interface with Senior Management as well as other departments.

What You'll Need

• Minimum of 4 years of pertinent finance/accounting experience required, with a focus on general ledger accounting. Proficiency in independently closing financial books is essential.
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
• Organized and able to efficiently prioritize, multi‑task, and adapt in a fast‑paced, often ambiguous environment; ability to meet deadlines.
• Detail‑oriented, but capable of seeing the big picture.
• Experience with QuickBooks and external audit.
• Advanced proficiency in financial modeling, Microsoft Excel, and PowerPoint; experience in SQL and Looker is a plus.
• CPA certification is a plus, but not required.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
