About this Role
We’re looking for an Accountant to join our growing Finance team. We have a number of operating entities around the world, each with their own processes, systems, tax laws and reporting requirements. In this role you'll help across all businesses to ensure we're moving quickly and getting things done well — this might mean anything from leading month-end closing processes to partnering with external tax firms to reconciling complex invoicing issues to consolidating group-level financial statements. While a CPA designation is always appreciated, it is not required for this role.
What You’ll Do
You’ll own the month-end close process for multiple entities, ensuring we are both quick (<5 days) and accurate with bookings, accruals and reporting
You'll take the lead on Sales Tax/VAT reporting, analysis, filings and remittances across various US states and EU countries
You'll support Apurva (our Sr. Manager, Finance) on group-level consolidation & reporting, inter-company transfers & reconciliations, and various ad hoc projects
You'll lend a hand on A/R, A/P, Payroll and FP&A tasks
You'll partner with external firms (tax, audit, etc.) to onboard them onto our businesses and ensure they have everything they need to complete their work quickly and effectively
About You
You have experience working in a fast-paced Finance function with a focus on accounting or financial operations.
Ownership Mentality: You don’t wait to be told what to do. You see what needs to be done and take accountability, even for tasks that aren’t officially “yours.”
Startup Environment: You enjoy the challenge of working in a dynamic environment where things move fast and processes evolve quickly. You are okay with some things being very structured, and others being a little loose.
You are fluent in English and comfortable communicating primarily in English with team members around the world.
What we can offer you…
An opportunity to learn and grow more than you have in any of your previous roles! We are scaling quickly, and there's an incredible amount of work to be done on all fronts. We are a lean, scrappy team where everyone wears multiple hats and works closely together. You'll be able to work on projects and initiatives that interest you and expand your scope.
A flexible, remote work environment where you’ll have a lot of freedom and flexibility. We hire adults and treat them like adults.
A salary in the $75-110k range + 30 days of vacation per year.
The chance to have a meaningful impact on a business and see the results of your work.
What we can't offer you...
Perfect Work/Life Balance. Startups are unpredictable — while we aim for balance, there will be times when evenings or weekends are necessary to keep things moving. We encourage you to manage your schedule and find ways to create balance that works for you.
A ton of people and resources. We operate lean and invest thoughtfully. This means you’ll need to get creative and wear multiple hats to get the job done — and we’re still figuring things out as we grow.
Our Process:
Applications: we’ll review your application within 72 hours, and you’ll hear from us no matter what. We’re committed to transparency — if we need more time to decide, we’ll let you know. No ghosting.
Interviews: you'll meet with Brett, Apurva and a few other members of our team. Our conversations will be a mix of behavioural questions, deep dives into your experience, and plenty of time for you to ask questions. Each session will last 30-60 minutes over Google Meet.
Case Study: we’ll give you a real-world challenge (compensated) to see how you think and approach a finance/data problem. Afterward, we’ll have a working session to simulate what collaboration feels like at ICG.
Offer: this is the fun part — we'll make an offer and start getting ready for you to join us!
If you have any questions throughout the process, feel free to reach out to Brett. Thank you, and hopefully we talk soon!
