Robert Half

Senior Accountant

New York, NY • Posted 1 weeks ago
Onsite Full Time Staffing and Recruiting

Robert Half is partnering with an exciting, well-funded fintech company that's building out its accounting and finance infrastructure during a period of significant growth.


The company is backed by well known institutional investors and on the verge of exponential growth.


The company plans to double headcount over the next 12 months, and is an opportunity to join early, gain meaningful equity exposure, and play a key role in building the accounting function from the ground up.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Ground-Floor Opportunity: Join as one of the first accounting hires, reporting directly to the Controller with significant visibility and ownership.
  • High-Growth Environment: Be part of a rapidly scaling business backed by experienced fintech leadership and institutional investors
  • Career Growth: Opportunity to grow alongside the business as the accounting team expands.
  • Modern Technology: Help shape accounting processes and systems, including an ongoing system implementation.


What You'll Be Doing:

  • Take ownership of month-end close activities, journal entries, reconciliations, and balance sheet analysis.
  • Support multi-entity accounting, consolidations, intercompany transactions, and financial reporting.
  • Partner closely with the Controller to build scalable accounting processes and strengthen internal controls.
  • Play an integral role in the company's system implementation and ongoing process improvements.


What We're Looking For:

  • 4+ years of progressive accounting experience.
  • CPA or CPA exam sections passed required.
  • Public accounting experience, ideally combined with industry experience, although strong candidates from either background will be considered.
  • Financial Services, Banking, or Fintech experience preferred, but open to exceptional candidates from other industries.
  • Strong technical accounting skills and an ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Someone who is proactive, enthusiastic, and excited about helping build something from the ground up.
