Who We Are:
At KEV, we help school districts eliminate the school finance blind spot. Our
platform gives district finance teams real-time visibility and traceability into
every dollar collected at the school level; whether it’s cash, check, or
digital. From field trips to fundraisers, we help them manage every dollar with
confidence. More than 26,000 schools across North America trust KEV to manage
over $4 billion annually. By unifying payments, accounting, and reporting, KEV
simplifies life for bookkeepers, builds trust with parents, and gives finance
leaders the oversight their current systems cannot. It’s how we help schools
stay compliant, reduce risk, and focus on what matters most, student success.
Backed by Five Arrows, the PE arm of Rothschild & Co., KEV is investing more
than ever to support K–12 in a world of tighter budgets, rising scrutiny, and
fast-changing tech. We’re headquartered in Toronto, with offices across North
America.
If you’re excited by the idea of building tech that protects schools, empowers
finance teams, and improves education through better systems, KEV is the place
for you.
