About The Position

Augustus is building a bank from the ground up. The finance team is at the very core of the bank's operations: capital structure, regulatory filings, product economics, and business development all run through this team. You will have full ownership over the day-to-day of the finance function: AP, payroll, cash/P&L forecasting, and budgeting. Your mission goes beyond day-to-day tasks. You will fundamentally change how finance departments operate. From Day 1, you will partner with Product and Engineering to build automated workflows and processes. You will be the second person on the ground, after the CFO. This is an early career role with real responsibility - the kind that doesn't come with a queue of people above you.

Requirements

2-4 years of full-time experience in finance, accounting, FP&A, or banking.
Strong Excel/Google Sheets modeling skills - comfortable designing and auditing models others will rely on.
Strong academic background.
In New York or ready to relocate.

Responsibilities

End-to-end AP, payroll administration through the PEO, corporate cards and expense policy, daily cash positioning across US and European accounts, and the monthly close.
Identify what can be automated and scope those projects with Product and Engineering.
Work directly with the Controller on the GL implementation.
Prepare audit and tax workpapers.
Perform cash and P&L forecasting.
Feed into the first full annual budget.
