We are looking to further build our bench of accounting professionals and add depth to our Finance team with this new role. Our department translates transactional information into usable data, establishes controls, facilitates external audits, and prepares reports of financial information for internal and external use. We’re looking for people committed to managing PillPack’s financial health, while embracing the typical challenges of a rapidly growing start-up. To be successful here, you’ll need to be entrepreneurial about taking initiative, but structured about details and deadlines. You’ll also need to be a good communicator of financial information to non-finance professionals.

You’re going to own significant sections of our monthly close and financial reporting process. You are going to help build processes and reporting around inventory and revenue. You don’t mind getting into the details to solve an accounting mystery when a balance just doesn’t add up at month end, and you also enjoy researching accounting principles to determine the right way to record a transaction. You’re ready for your next challenge. And that challenge will be to understand all of our operations and our systems, and implement the tools we need to make our accounting better, faster, stronger.
