Accounting Manager

About the Role

We are a fractional CFO / COO firm that supports fast-growing startups and small businesses with finance, operations, and systems expertise. We are hiring an Accounting Manager who will be placed as a dedicated resource for one of our clients–an emerging adtech company founded by former Googlers.

This role manages day-to-day accounting operations (GL, AR / AP, reconciliations, month-end close), improves processes and tools, and contributes to financial visibility and reporting. As this will be the first Finance / Accounting role, this person should show the ability to contribute to and grow into Financial Planning & Analysis responsibilities.

This role has a strong analytical component.  We are looking for someone who can connect the numbers to the story, not just record them.
