Accounting Manager

Jerry.ai•Salt Lake City, UT

About The Position

We’re looking for an exceptional Accounting Manager to lead our accounting operations at a pivotal time in our journey. In early 2024, we reached profitability — a major milestone — and now we’re setting our sights even higher: scaling from 5M to 50M customers and building a $10B business. As a late-stage, fast-growing startup with IPO ambitions, we’re expanding our financial infrastructure and hiring someone to own one of our most complex and critical areas — revenue recognition. This is a hands-on role that requires strong technical expertise in ASC 606, deep data fluency, and the ability to operate across multiple systems and revenue streams. You’ll be instrumental in building scalable processes that support timely, accurate, and audit-ready reporting. You’ll also partner closely with teams across Data, Engineering, Finance, and play a key role in helping us meet public company standards. Jerry is building the first super app to make car ownership affordable and accessible – insurance, buy/sell, registration, loans, safety, repairs, parking, etc – a $2T market in the U.S. We started with insurance in 2019, and since then we’ve launched loan refinancing, driving insights, repair marketplace, car diagnostics, and a GenAI-powered chatbot & voicebot. We have amassed over 5M customers, raised $240MM in funding, scaled our revenue 60X and our team to 225 across 6 countries.
