Tilting Futures; Oakland (CA); Hybride; USD 82 000 - 88 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Tilting Futures in Oakland, CA, is seeking a Finance & Operations Manager to lead our finance, people and tech operations. This hands-on role focuses on simplifying processes, aligning systems with our mission, and building bench strength across teams.

You’ll run month‑end close, manage budgets, onboarding/offboarding, vendor relations, and tool administration (Google Workspace, Slack, Asana, 15Five). Hybrid role requires 2–3 days in office weekly.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in operations, finance or business operations, ideally at a nonprofit.
• Working knowledge of nonprofit finance and accounting, including month-end close, budgeting and audit preparation.
• Experience managing outside vendors, such as accountants, benefits providers or IT partners, including pushing back when the work is not right.
• Strong project management skills, with experience running recurring processes that involve several teams.
• Comfort with technology: you learn new tools quickly and can talk through options with vendors and IT partners.
• Advanced spreadsheet skills (formulas, pivot tables) and experience with accounting and payment tools such as QuickBooks Online and Bill.com.
• Clear written and verbal communication, including explaining budgets and benefits in plain terms.
• Commitment to aligning our operational practices with our values, especially around diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.

Responsabilités

• Run month-end close from start to finish, and set up simple systems that help managers hold their teams accountable for close steps, so we get our data in a timely manner.
• Serve as the main point of contact for our outside accountants and fractional CFO: give them context, review their work, catch errors, and bring routine work in-house where it lowers costs.
• Project manage the annual budget process, forecast updates and spending controls, including accounts payable, expense reconciliation and contract records.
• Own benefits administration, including annual open enrollment, renewals and team questions.
• Lead onboarding, offboarding and offer letters, and keep us compliant with state and federal HR requirements, from required trainings to the employee handbook.
• Project manage our hiring process, keeping hiring managers, candidates and timelines on track.
• Partner with our fractional executive assistant on day‑to‑day HR and admin tasks.
• Administer our organization‑wide tools (Google Workspace, Slack, Asana and 15Five), along with our tech budget, vendors and renewals.
• Help each team own the tools it uses by building up subject matter experts on that team and making sure how‑tos are easy to find.
• Recommend new tools, retire ones we have outgrown, and keep our accounts and data secure.
• Look across finance, people and tech processes for steps to automate, streamline or outsource, especially reminders and handoffs that depend on one person.
• Keep the Resource Hub and process documentation current so the team can find answers on their own.
