You will be the point person for accounting and finance, taking full ownership of the function while evolving it from strong accounting operations into a more forward-looking finance capability.<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Montserrat,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">You’ll work across a mix of revenue models including project-based consulting, managed services, and milestone-driven delivery work.

This requires someone who understands how revenue, billing, and cash flow actually behave in a professional services environment, not just how they’re reported.<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Montserrat,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">The right person enjoys operating in a lean environment where you are both the owner and the doer who is comfortable closing the books, managing invoicing and payroll, and at the same time building forecasts, improving visibility, and helping leadership make better decisions.<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Montserrat,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">In this role, you will manage full-cycle accounting and finance for our global operations (US, Canada, and India).
