  • Administer the Stripe and PIEE platforms and unlock timesheets as needed.

Approve payments and maintain controls (~10%)

  • Approve Business Central bills, outgoing bank and XE payments, and Positive Pay exceptions.
  • Monitor Ramp out-of-policy alerts and reconcile Ramp transactions monthly.
  • Track rebates.

Manage sales and state tax (~10%)

  • Reconcile Avalara and manage sales tax filings and changes.
  • Review invoices for sales tax and complete the monthly sales tax review.
  • Respond to state letters and notices, and manage state registrations and renewals.

Prepare projections and leadership reporting (~10%)

  • Prepare and review weekly projections and the weekly cash overstatement calculation for leadership.

Lead the accounting team (~5%)

  • Hold weekly one-on-ones with staff accountants and support their development.
  • Manage quarterly bonus forms and goals tracking, and oversee payroll prep, submission, register review and reporting.

Success in the first year looks like:

  • Cyber Risk & Compliance (CRC) and Professional Services (PS) revenue reviewed and reconciled every month.
  • Sales tax filings, state notices and registrations kept current.
