About The Position

UpCounting is a fully remote, tech-powered firm helping eCommerce and digital-first businesses scale with confidence through clean, reliable financials. Their global team works asynchronously, giving everyone time for deep, meaningful focus, and they use smart systems and automation to deliver high-quality, efficient work across every department.

You'll lead a small team of accountants (1–5 direct reports), own the quality of their deliverables across multiple client files, and help clients understand the story behind their numbers.
