Job description

About VSCO

For years, we've helped photographers create their work. Now we're building what comes next.

VSCO exists for photographers. Not as a side feature, not as an afterthought, but as the whole point. We build the connected system photographers rely on, and we've spent over a decade earning the trust of a global creative community that takes the craft seriously.

Photography is at an inflection point. AI is reshaping what's possible for creative work, and that's where our mission shines. VSCO is building the full photographer's workflow: from creating and editing your work, to delivering it to clients, to running your business. All of it built thoughtfully, with photographers leading the way. We believe the future of photography tools creates more space for creativity, handling the busy work so photographers can focus on the craft.

If you care about craft, community, and what technology can unlock for creative people, this is the work. We're a mission-driven and focused company where your work ships quickly, is meaningful, and reaches tens of millions of people worldwide. You'll have a real say in what we build and how we build it. We hire people who don't wait to be asked, naturally connect the dots, care about the quality of what they ship, and believe the best outcomes come from building together.

About The Role

VSCO is looking for a Senior Accountant to join our Accounting team and play an important role in both the day-to-day execution and continued evolution of our accounting operations.

Reporting directly to the Director of Accounting, this is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership across the month-end close, general ledger, audit readiness, and accounting systems and automation. You’ll own key areas of the close while also helping us build smarter, more scalable processes as VSCO continues to grow.

This is a great opportunity for an accountant who has built a strong technical foundation and is ready for greater ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to improve how an accounting function operates.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Own meaningful portions of the month-end close from start to finish
• Partner directly with the Director of Accounting and gain visibility across the broader finance organization
• Help modernize and automate accounting workflows
• Play a key role in optimizing our ERP and AP and expense technology
• Identify opportunities to make our close faster, more accurate, and more scalable
• Build processes that can grow with the business rather than simply maintain what already exists

We are currently optimizing our ERP, Campfire, and evaluating opportunities to streamline our AP and expense technology stack. You’ll be an important partner in that work and will have the opportunity to influence how our accounting infrastructure evolves.

This is a hybrid role based in San Francisco, designed for someone who values the flexibility of focused work alongside intentional in-person collaboration with teammates and cross-functional partners.

The Day to Day

• Own key month-end close activities, including balance sheet reconciliations, accruals, fixed assets, prepaid schedules, and related journal entries
• Prepare accurate journal entries and maintain clear, audit-ready supporting documentation
• Maintain and monitor day-to-day general ledger activity in Campfire
• Partner with the Director of Accounting to continuously improve the speed, accuracy, and scalability of the close process
• Play a key role in the implementation and automation of our AP and expense platform, including workflow design, coding rules, and process improvements
• Strengthen reconciliation, documentation, and accounting processes in preparation for upcoming audits
• Identify inefficiencies across AP, expenses, and the close process and take ownership of implementing practical solutions
• Explore responsible ways to leverage AI and automation to reduce repetitive work and improve accounting workflows
• Support internal and external audit requests and help maintain strong, scalable accounting controls
• Partner cross-functionally with teams across VSCO as accounting needs and business priorities evolve

Qualifications

• 4–6 years of progressive accounting experience with direct ownership of recurring month-end close responsibilities
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• Strong working knowledge of US GAAP and core accounting principles
• Experience working within an ERP and confidence learning new financial systems and tools
• Ability to independently own workstreams, solve problems, and manage competing priorities
• Strong attention to detail without losing sight of the broader business context
• Clear, thoughtful written and verbal communication skills
• A proactive mindset and genuine interest in improving systems and processes rather than simply maintaining them
• Comfort working in a lean, collaborative environment where priorities can evolve quickly

Nice to Have

• CPA
• Experience within a SaaS, technology, or high-growth company
• Experience with Campfire, Bill.com, Expensify, HubiFi, Ramp, Navan, or similar accounting and expense platforms
• Experience supporting an ERP, AP, or expense platform implementation or migration
• Experience using automation or AI tools to improve finance or accounting workflows

Job Perks

• Hybrid work with an office in San Francisco, CA
• Regular in-person events events to connect and collaborate
• Competitive salary & equity
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and families
• Flexible Time Off
• Company-paid parental, medical and caregiver leave
• Other perks including mental health resources and tech reimbursements

We also provide paid sick time as required by state and local law. Additional benefits and perks contained in our standard employee benefits package are also offered for this position.
