About The Opportunity 

We're a high-growth, multi-brand consumer company that has grown quickly through acquisition, and we're building toward the financial reporting maturity of a public company.

  • Debt and convertible instruments

  • Preferred stock across multiple series

  • Share-based compensation (RSUs and stock options)

  • Leases across a multi-entity portfolio

  • Business combinations and purchase accounting

  • Revenue recognition

  • Be the team's resource for adopting new accounting standards and thinking through howthey affect us

External Financial Reporting

  • Help prepare our annual and interim financial statements and footnote disclosures, including quarterly statements in a public-company style

  • Build and maintain our disclosure framework, including footnote rollforwards (leases, share-based comp, debt, equity)

  • Prepare supporting workpapers and tie-out binders that connect our disclosures back to source systems

  • Help manage the close calendar and disclosure checklist

  • Partner with our external auditors through the audit and review process

Cross-Functional Partner

  • Work with Legal and Corporate Development on how we structure transactions and the accounting behind financings and acquisitions

  • Collaborate with Equity Administration and our cap table systems to keep share-based comp and equity data accurate

  • Help us build scalable processes, controls, and documentation as we mature toward public-company readiness

What You Bring to the Table 

  • CPA

  • Roughly 7+ years of accounting experience, ideally a blend of Big 4 and industry

  • Solid technical accounting background across the areas above, and someone who enjoys
    writing memos

  • Experience preparing external financial statements and footnotes; SEC reporting (10-K/10-Q)
    experience is a plus

  • Comfort with complex capital structures (preferred series, SAFEs, warrants, convertible debt)

  • Experience with high-volume share-based comp

  • Strong Excel and systems skills; equity administration systems experience is a nice-to-have

  • Someone who enjoys a fast-paced, growing environment and can work independently
