• Prepare and maintain accounting position memos on significant transactions, estimates, and non-routine items.
• Support external audit on revenue, capitalized software, and other technical accounting areas, ensuring workpapers are audit-ready.
• Own the alignment between Zuora billing, Zuora revenue, and the Oracle Fusion GL ensuring accuracy and completeness through the monthly close.
• Partner with O2C Operations on billing accuracy, contract-to-invoice matching, and deferred revenue tracking.
• Identify and resolve discrepancies between executed contracts, Zuora billing configurations, and revenue schedules.
• Drive improvements to Zuora revenue module configuration and billing process controls in coordination with systems and operations teams.

Month-End Close & Reporting

• Lead all revenue-related month-end close activities, including deferred revenue, unbilled AR, contract asset/liability reconciliations, and contra-revenue entries.
• Prepare revenue flux analysis and variance commentary for internal management reporting and Hearst reporting packages.
• Maintain supporting schedules and workpapers at audit-ready quality on a monthly basis.

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Serve as a trusted advisor to Legal, Sales, FP&A, and Operations on deal structure, contract terms, and their accounting implications.
• Collaborate with the Controller on development of accounting policies, internal controls, and close process improvements.
• Support due diligence, integration, or special projects as needed in connection with Hearst corporate initiatives.
• Lead initiatives to automate and modernize revenue and order to cash processes across the organization.
• Build and mentor a high-performing OTC team focused on accuracy, customer service, and continuous improvement.
• Foster strong relationships across Accounting, Procurement, FP&A, and Hearst Shared Services teams.
• Champion a culture of accountability, operational excellence, and service delivery.

• 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, with at least 3 years focused on revenue recognition or technical accounting under US GAAP.
• Deep, hands‑on knowledge of ASC 606, including multi-element arrangements, contract modifications, variable consideration, and principal vs. agent analysis.
• Experience in a SaaS or software company (public, private, or PE‑backed).
