You're a senior accounting leader who will own Corporate Accounting and Public Reporting as a unified function, leading a cross-functional team of 6–10 professionals. You'll partner daily with the CAO, external auditors, and business teams (product, treasury, legal, tax, risk) to ensure accurate, timely financial reporting. You'll own the 10-K, 10-Q, and related filings end-to-end, and work collaboratively with auditors to finalize technical positions before the reporting period closes. You understand how transactions flow—from source systems through the data layer and into the GL—and that proximity to the data is what allows you to get ahead of accounting issues. You're also fluent in AI tools and use them to accelerate research, draft memos, and synthesize complex guidance, applying your judgment to refine and finalize.
