Description

beehiiv is on a mission to help the next million creators, publishers, and companies scale and monetize their audiences.

5–8 years of progressive accounting experience, ideally including public accounting and high-growth startups
Strong understanding of GAAP, SaaS revenue recognition (ASC 606), and financial controls

Proficiency in accounting systems and tools (QBO, Ramp, Stripe)
Strong organizational skills with attention to detail and accuracy
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach

Familiarity with billing tools (e.g., Stripe, Chargebee, or Zuora)
SaaS industry experience, including familiarity with ARR/MRR, deferred revenue, and subscription billing
Exposure to sales tax compliance tools (e.g., Avalara, TaxJar, Anrok)

What you'll be responsible for:

Own the monthly, quarterly, and year-end close process and deliver timely and accurate financial reporting
Ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP, including revenue recognition under ASC 606 (SaaS-specific)
Maintain and reconcile GL accounts, prepaid expenses, accruals, and fixed assets
Manage AP, invoicing/collections, and payroll accounting
Oversee state and local tax filings, including sales tax

Need to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders
Must be comfortable with rapid iteration and frequent context switching
High expectations for both speed and quality
Must navigate complex organizational dynamics

Bias towards action

Our first impulse is to act. We don’t get bogged down in unnecessary processes or bullsh**t. Perfection is the enemy of progress.

We answer to our users

Nothing matters more than serving our users. If our users fail, we fail.

Ego comes second, but winning comes first

We put our egos aside to work collaboratively and build something special. It doesn't matter who's idea or who's vision, we're here to create the best outcome. We're here to win.
