This is a highly visible role and will partner closely with FP&A leadership, operational teams, and external advisors.

Key Responsibilities

  • Partner with FP&A to align actuals vs. forecasts, cash flow, and revenue models.

  • Play a key role in the NetSuite environment and upcoming ERP implementation, helping build automated workflows and reporting structures.

  • Establish and document policies, procedures, and controls to support a scalable, audit-ready accounting function as the company approaches IPO-readiness.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA preferred but not required.

  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience

  • Hands-on experience with NetSuite (required); prior ERP implementation experience strongly preferred.

  • Prior successful IPO experience a huge plus.
  • Experience in healthcare SaaS or high-growth tech environments is highly desirable.

  • Proven ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous, pre-IPO environment with evolving processes and structures.

  • Strong understanding of the end-to-end accounting cycle (AP, AR, GL) and how it connects to FP&A.

  • Detail-oriented with excellent organizational, analytical, and communication skills.
