Job Description



We’re looking for a Controller to lead our accounting, treasury, tax, and audit functions as we continue to scale.

You will own the month-end close, financial statements, technical accounting, treasury and cash management, tax compliance, AP, revenue, payroll, and our control environment, while partnering closely with our Credit/AR team, FP&A, external auditors, and leadership, with a strong focus on automation and leveraging AI and other modern tools to scale the function efficiently.

This role reports to the SVP of Finance and will manage a small but growing team of accountants and external partners.

What You’ll Do

Accounting, Close & Financial Reporting

  • Lead the monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes; ensure accurate, timely financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow)
  • Maintain and improve the chart of accounts, accounting policies, and procedures
  • Prepare and review journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, reserves, and supporting schedules
  • Own and continuously improve close checklists, calendars, and review protocols
  • Own revenue recognition and related accounting in accordance with US GAAP (including ASC 606), including contract review and billing/revenue reconciliations
  • Partner with FP&A on internal financial reporting packages for leadership and the Board, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and clarity

Treasury, Funding & Cash Operations

  • Deliver regular (e.g., weekly) cash reporting and support short-term cash forecasting in partnership with FP&A
  • Manage banking and lender relationships, including facilities used to fund marketplace receivables (e.g., debt lines, invoice factoring)
  • Oversee draws, repayments, covenant reporting, and compliance related to these facilities
  • Help develop and implement cash and investment policies, ensuring safety, liquidity, and appropriate returns
  • Oversee accounts payable (including controls and approvals for wires/ACH), vendor onboarding, and payment runs; balance strong controls with operational efficiency
  • Ensure accurate and timely payroll in partnership with People/HR and our payroll provider

Tax & Compliance

  • Own tax compliance in partnership with external tax advisors (federal, state, and local income tax, sales/use tax, franchise tax, and other indirect taxes as applicable)
  • Monitor nexus and filing requirements as the company grows and enters new jurisdictions
  • Ensure proper tax accounting (e.g., income tax provision, deferred taxes) in the financial statements
  • Drive process improvements around data collection and documentation to support efficient tax filings and audits

Systems, Automation & Controls

  • Own and optimize our finance systems stack (e.g., ERP, AP automation, expense management, billing tools)
  • Identify and execute on opportunities to automate and streamline workflows across accounting, treasury, and tax, including leveraging AI and other modern tools to reduce manual work and improve accuracy
  • Design, implement, and maintain an appropriate internal control framework, including segregation of duties and approval workflows
  • Ensure full compliance with US GAAP and other applicable standards

Leadership, Partnership & Acquisition Integration

  • Manage and develop a high-performing accounting/operations team, as well as external partners (outsourced accountants, tax advisors, auditors)
  • Partner cross-functionally with Credit/AR, FP&A, Ops, GTM, Legal, and Product on initiatives with accounting, tax, or treasury impact
  • Act as the financial lead for acquisition integrations, including systems, reporting, and control alignment

What Success Looks Like (6–12 Months)

Within your first year you will have:

  • Shortened and stabilized month-end close to a predictable timeline with minimal post-close adjustments
  • Delivered clean, audit-ready financials and smoothly managed annual audit
  • Built a clear, reliable process for accounting and reporting on the insured receivables portfolio and related funding structures
  • Established a predictable tax compliance calendar, with no surprises and clean support for all filings
  • Upgraded key systems and processes to be more automated, controlled, and scalable
  • Built a small but strong, engaged team with clear responsibilities and development plans

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of progressive accounting experience, including public accounting + industry (ideally in SaaS, fintech, or B2B services)
  • CPA preferred (or equivalent experience with deep US GAAP expertise)
  • Prior experience as a Controller or Assistant Controller in a growth-stage environment
  • Hands-on experience with treasury (cash management, banking, and/or debt facilities) and tax (coordination with external advisors, multi-state, and/or sales tax)
  • Strong knowledge of US GAAP, including revenue recognition (ASC 606) and equity/stock-based compensation accounting
  • Experience leading audits and building/maintaining internal controls
  • Comfort working directly with external auditors, tax advisors, lenders, and banks
  • Proven ability to build and manage a team and to collaborate effectively with non-finance stakeholders
  • High attention to detail, strong analytical skills, and a bias toward simple, scalable processes and automation
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, evolving, growth-stage environment

Nice to Have

  • Experience in a VC/PE-backed growth company
  • Experience with marketplace, fintech, lending, or receivables-backed business models
  • Experience with multi-entity, multi-state, or international structures
  • Exposure to Board and investor reporting

Additional Information



What You'll Receive

  • Robust medical, dental, vision, and wellness benefits
  • Flexible time off policies
  • Employer-sponsored 401(k)
