About the Role

Houzz is looking for a VP of Accounting / Controller to lead our global accounting and finance operations. Reporting to the CFO, you will own the accounting, control, and operational core of the finance function for a US-based company with global operations.

You will be accountable for the integrity of Houzz's financial results and for the processes, systems, and controls behind them. This is a role for a hands-on leader who can set technical accounting positions with confidence and also manage the team, processes, and systems that deliver reliable numbers as we grow. You will lead a team of about 15 people, mostly based in the US.

This is a hybrid role based in our Tel Aviv office, which is close to the train station.

What You'll Do

  • Own the general ledger and the monthly, quarterly, and annual close across all entities under US GAAP.
  • Oversee consolidations, intercompany accounting, multi-currency reporting, and account reconciliations, and deliver accurate results on time.
  • Own statutory reporting and local audits for the Israeli entity and other international subsidiaries. Make sure we meet Israeli corporate, tax, and reporting requirements alongside our US obligations.
  • Serve as Houzz's top technical accounting expert, including revenue recognition under ASC 606 for a subscription business with multiple revenue streams, stock-based compensation, and other complex or judgmental transactions.
  • Set accounting positions that hold up to audit review.
  • Lead billing operations, AR, collections, and cash application, and partner with Sales and Product to improve the quote-to-cash process.
  • Oversee AP, procurement, vendor management, and payroll accounting across the US, Israel, and other countries.
  • Oversee US, Israeli, and international direct and indirect tax, transfer pricing, and the tax provision, working with outside advisors.
  • Manage cash, liquidity, and banking relationships, and prepare cash flow forecasts.
  • Oversee equity plan administration, cap table support, and 409A valuations.
  • Design and run the internal control environment, including segregation of duties, and manage external audits in the US, Israel, and wherever Houzz has international operations.
  • Collaborate with the Head of Systems to manage the tools and systems the team uses, including NetSuite and Zuora.
  • Bring automation and AI into the team's work to increase efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Prepare materials and lead technical accounting discussions with the CFO, audit committee, and board.
  • Partner with FP&A on results and insights, and with Engineering, Sales, HR, and Legal on processes, policies, and systems.
  • Manage, lead, and develop a team of about 15 people, mostly in the US, working across time zones, and build a team that can support the growth of the business.

At a Minimum, We'd Like You to Have

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
  • Licensed CPA in Israel or the US (required)
  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including a Big 4 background
  • Proven experience leading a full accounting and controllership function (Controller, VP Accounting, CAO, or equivalent) at a mature startup or established global company
  • Strong knowledge of US GAAP and of Israeli corporate reporting, statutory, and tax rules and regulations
  • Experience leading the accounting function for US-based companies with global operations, and managing US-based teams
  • Deep technical accounting expertise, including ASC 606 for subscription businesses
  • Multi-entity, multi-currency experience, including consolidations, intercompany, and transfer pricing
  • Hands-on experience with NetSuite
  • A track record of improving the close, quote-to-cash, and finance systems and processes
  • Fluent English
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, including presenting to the CFO, audit committee, and board
  • Sound judgment, high integrity, and the ability to handle confidential information and work independently
  • Advanced Excel skills

Ideally, You'll Also Have

  • Experience with Zuora or a similar subscription billing platform
  • Experience building AI and automation tools and implementing them in a finance organization
  • Background in SaaS, marketplace, or consumer internet businesses
  • A hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves approach and a positive, team-first attitude

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
