You hold a degree in Accounting (or equivalent) and have 2+ years of experience in an accounting or general ledger role. You’re confident in debits and credits and understand how transactions flow through the financial statements. - You’re ready for ownership. You’re excited to take responsibility for critical areas like cash and revenue while continuing to learn and grow under strong mentorship. - You manage your time well. You can juggle recurring responsibilities (like daily cash and revenue work) alongside monthly close tasks. You prioritize effectively, meet deadlines, and know when to escalate issues rather than getting stuck. - You communicate clearly and proactively. You’re comfortable working cross-functionally and asking thoughtful questions when something doesn’t look right. You respond promptly and professionally and can clearly document your work. - You’re resourceful and coachable. When you encounter something new, you research, ask questions, and leverage available tools — but you also recognize when it’s time to involve your manager. - You care about accuracy. You enjoy reconciling accounts, investigating discrepancies, and ensuring transactions are recorded correctly. You’re detail-oriented but developing your ability to see the broader business impact. - You enjoy improving processes. You’re not satisfied with just completing tasks — you look for opportunities to automate, streamline, and make processes more efficient, especially in an automation-driven environment like Zapier. THINGS YOU’LL DO: - Own the recording and reconciliation of cash transactions across multiple entities and currencies, ensuring completeness and accuracy. - Reconcile bank accounts and payment processors to NetSuite, investigate discrepancies, and maintain strong cash visibility throughout the month. - Support daily revenue operations by reconciling payment processor reports, ensuring revenue data is complete, and assisting in running revenue recognition processes. - Record and reconcile prepaid expenses and related amortization schedules, helping ensure accurate expense recognition over time. - Partner cross-functionally with Payroll, Tax, AP, and other teams to ensure cash and revenue-related transactions are recorded accurately. - Support the month-end close process, including preparing reconciliations, investigating fluctuations, and explaining account variances. - Assist with interim and annual audits by preparing schedules and providing supporting documentation for your assigned areas. - Contribute to process improvement initiatives, leveraging Zapier’s own automation tools, AI tools and other systems to drive efficiencies. - Work within NetSuite, FloQast, Excel, Chargebee and Google Sheets to perform your responsibilities and maintain strong documentation. - Support ad-hoc projects and cross-functional initiatives as the company continues to grow.
