Finance & Accounting Manager

We have reached a stage of growth where our financial complexity—driven by global royalties technology fees and high-volume transactions—requires a dedicated technical expert who is comfortable managing the full accounting cycle.

In this role you will be the primary person responsible for our day-to-day accounting operations while helping us stand up our formal FP&A function. You aren’t just overseeing the books; you are actively preparing them. This is a role for a technical accountant who wants to move beyond "just the numbers" to help us forecast our future and build the systems that will support our next phase of growth.

This is a hybrid full time position work from our New York NY office. Our hybrid schedule requires employees to work from the office 4 days a week and allows for 1 day work from home.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Own the month-end quarter-end and year-end close processes. This includes preparing journal entries performing reconciliations and ensuring our financial statements are accurate and delivered on time.
• Be the lead on our most complex accounting areas specifically Revenue Recognition across our distribution and royalty streams.
• Cleaning up the Chart of Accounts; troubleshooting NetSuite sync errors.
• Maintaining the tax calendar; preparing documentation for annual 1099 filings.
• Manage and optimize our Ramp pipeline; ensuring correct department coding for all vendor invoices and expenses.
• Ensure we are compliant with GAAP as our transaction volume scales.
• Once the books are closed you’ll help turn that data into insight. You will assist the Head of Finance in investigating budget-to-actual variances and building our first formal forecasting models and departmental budgets.
• As an early hire you will identify where our current workflows are manual and implement automations systems or policies that will make our accounting & finance function more efficient and transparent.
• Work across all teams to help them understand their spending and the financial impact of their projects translating accounting data into clear actionable advice for the business.
• Ensure we remain "audit-ready" at all times by maintaining rigorous documentation and internal controls.

What We Are Looking For:

• 5+ years of accounting experience including at least 2 years in public accounting (Big 4 or mid-tier). A CPA is required.
• You have a strong handle on technical revenue accounting and are comfortable "in the weeds" of complex datasets.
• Experience with SaaS royalties or digital media is a significant plus.
• You enjoy setting up and optimizing tools. Experience with NetSuite or similar ERPs is highly desirable.
• You take pride in a perfect reconciliation and a clean audit trail. You are comfortable with the "day-to-day" work required to keep a growing company's finances healthy.
• You can explain a balance sheet or a variance report to a non-finance person in plain approachable language.

What Makes Too Lost Different?
