What you’ll do

Own the close:

Stand up and run a disciplined month‑end close with a D+5 target; maintain checklists, reconciliations, and documentation.

Implement revenue recognition:

Establish and operate policies aligned with US GAAP (ASC 606) for subscription and services models.

Centralize AP & AR:

Build vendor onboarding, approvals, payment runs, invoicing, collections cadence, and cash application with clear SLAs and controls.

Strengthen controls:

Define policies (COA hygiene, accruals/prepaids, fixed assets, purchasing/approvals, documentation, segregation of duties).

Improve visibility:

Deliver timely actuals, BvA reporting, COGS/gross margin by stream, and a rolling cash view; partner closely with leadership.

Scale the function:

Identify automation opportunities for AI and software tools and (when volumes warrant) help scope junior support.
