About The Position

As Manager, Financial Reporting & Technical Accounting, you will lead global audit and reporting processes, partnering with leadership, auditors, and international teams across multiple jurisdictions. This role involves bringing structure to a complex environment, coordinating audits, strengthening reporting processes, and evolving how finance operates within a fast-growing, global SaaS company. It is a high-ownership individual contributor role without direct reports, requiring end-to-end responsibility for key areas of financial reporting and audit coordination. You will operate with a high degree of autonomy, managing competing priorities in a dynamic setting, and success requires strong organization, adaptability, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. A key aspect of the role is modernizing financial reporting by leveraging AI and emerging technologies to improve efficiency, accuracy, and scalability, moving the team away from manual processes. This position offers a strong foundation for growth with hands-on exposure to international reporting, technical accounting, and cross-functional collaboration, working closely with senior leadership, including the Controller and CFO. It is a high-impact opportunity to take ownership of global financial reporting from day one.
