  • General Ledger Integrity and Reconciliations :

  • Prepare and review reconciliations for all significant balance sheet and P&L accounts.
  • Maintain detailed rollforwards for intangibles, software development costs, and fixed assets.
  • Financial Reporting and Compliance :

  • Support preparation of internal financial packages and board-level reports.

  • Support deferred tax and R&D credit calculations in collaboration with external specialists.
  • Policy, Controls, and Process Improvement :

  • Develop and maintain accounting policies compliant with US GAAP.
  • Strengthen internal controls around cash management, settlements, and revenue recognition.
  • Assist in process automation and system optimization projects (e.g., Power BI, NetSuite).
  • Maintain organized and audit-ready documentation across all entities and accounts.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration :

  • Work closely with the CFO and FP&A to reconcile financial data with forecasts, KPIs, and performance dashboards.
  • Collaborate with Operations and Legal to ensure alignment between contracts, billing, and accounting.
  • Partner with the Technology team on data validation for enforcement transactions and SaaS usage metrics.
  • Qualifications :

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA / ACCA is a must; ex-big 4.
  • 12-20 years of progressive accounting experience, including controller or assistant controller roles, preferably with PE-backed companies.
