Job description

• The Revenue Accounting Project Manager will help build and standardize how Function Health's revenue accounting function operates - the processes it runs on and the systems that support them - without performing the close itself
• This role sits at the intersection of accounting, process design, and cross-functional execution: you'll understand accounting treatment well enough to shape sound requirements and standards, and you'll project-manage the work needed to get there, in service of a team that owns the close
• You'll work across multiple revenue streams, each with its own systems, maturity level, and open questions
• You'll support the team's initiative roadmap by surfacing where a process or control needs attention, then take ownership of sequencing, scoping, and driving that work to a documented, repeatable outcome
• That often involves systems and data, but just as often it's about establishing how something should work as a matter of process, independent of any one tool
• You will report to the Senior Revenue Accounting Manager, and operate with a high degree of autonomy on your workstreams while receiving direction on priorities and judgment calls
• This is a strong fit for someone who wants ownership over how the function's processes and initiatives take shape - bringing forward what they're noticing, flagging what doesn't make sense, and driving cross-functional projects to completion with minimal oversight once scoped
• Support the Senior Manager in shaping the accounting initiative roadmap - surfacing process gaps, risks, and opportunities, then owning the scoping and prioritization of your workstreams once direction is set
• Design and standardize accounting processes and controls across revenue streams - independent of any single system - so operations run consistently and predictably as the business scales
• Own end-to-end project management for revenue accounting initiatives - scoping requirements, sequencing workstreams, tracking open items across stakeholders, and driving projects to completion against a deadline
• Serve as the connective tissue between Accounting and Data/Engineering, Finance, and Product - gathering requirements, resolving ambiguity between teams, and ensuring decisions made in one function are accurately reflected in another
• Translate accounting treatment and technical judgment into system requirements and configuration logic for ERP/revenue recognition systems, partnering with implementation teams and internal engineering resources
• Investigate data quality and process breakdowns by working directly with underlying datasets - tracing issues to root cause rather than reconciling around them, and partnering with Data/Engineering to fix them at the source
• Build and maintain documentation, mapping logic, and handoff materials that convert undocumented or ad hoc knowledge into clear, auditable procedures the accounting team can run against
• Prepare clear, organized documentation and data support for external audit and advisory partners on request, without owning the audit relationship directly
