Job Description

• Own the monthly/quarterly/year-end close across entities, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. • Maintain the general ledger: journal entries, accruals, prepaids, FX revaluation, and supporting schedules. • Run a standard close calendar and checklist; drive the close to completion with clear deadlines and accountability. • Maintain a monthly exceptions queue (missing invoices, unidentified flows, stale reconciliation items) and clear it consistently. • Keep documentation audit-ready by default (organized evidence chain and clean support for every material balance/transaction). • Own bookkeeping across all entities; ensure consistent policies, coding, and documentation standards. • Maintain clean intercompany operations: invoicing, intercompany reconciliations, and balances (including interest accruals where applicable). • Support arm’s-length and related-party hygiene with clear narratives and support (agreements, approvals, invoices, and reconciliations). • Lead end-to-end crypto transaction accounting across wallets, exchanges/custodians, networks, and tokens. • Ensure crypto balances are reconciled and supported with strong audit trails (wallet addresses, transaction hashes, exchange statements, etc.). • Maintain clear classification rules for crypto flows (e.g., revenue vs other income, custody transfers vs external payments, gas/fees, staking/yield, airdrops, liquidity provision). • Maintain schedules for realized vs unrealized gains/losses and cost basis/lots where needed for reporting and CPA support. • Implement and maintain finance controls appropriate for a lean team (approvals, segregation of duties where feasible, documentation standards). • Maintain a compliance calendar (in partnership with external advisors) and ensure recurring obligations are tracked and supported. • Coordinate with external accountants, auditors, tax providers, and legal counsel to support multi-jurisdiction requirements. • Deliver clear, management-ready reporting: P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and concise variance narratives. • Produce burn reporting and spend insights (top vendors/categories, drivers, and recommendations for savings and efficiency). • Support budgeting and forecasting cadence (annual budget + rolling forecast; budget vs actual with variance explanations). • Maintain visibility across fiat accounts and crypto holdings; support payment operations with strong authorization and recordkeeping. • Produce regular cash/treasury reporting (balances, upcoming obligations, runway snapshot, and operational risk flags).
