Finance Operations Manager – Build Systems That Work. Lead With Standards.

The Role

You'll design and document close processes, reconciliation workflows, GL structures, and internal control frameworks—then make sure your team executes them consistently. You work hands-on: weekly KPI reviews against deadlines, month-end timelines, monitoring execution with urgency, and fixing breakdowns quickly. You're decisive when a process fails and confident enough to take charge. No ambiguity, no excuses.

Responsibilities

• Design and own month-end close, GL reconciliation, and AR/AP workflow architecture
• Build and document accounting processes—clean, repeatable, auditable
• Establish internal controls and compliance frameworks
• Design KPI tracking and reporting systems with analytical rigor
• Set team standards: define KPIs for timeliness, accuracy, and process adherence
• Lead month-end execution: set the timeline, monitor progress, verify every detail
• Conduct data-driven analysis on cash flow, forecasting, and financial systems
• Ensure team adherence: identify gaps, coach on execution, correct breakdowns fast

What You'll Get

• Independence. You design the systems—structure, tools, and processes are yours to decide.
• Technical depth. This is hands-on; you're building and improving systems directly.
• Quality rewarded. We notice when things are done right.
• Room to scale. As we grow: more complexity, larger scope, faster pace.
