With our proprietary technology and an unwavering commitment to trust and transparency, we’re revolutionizing the way brands and creators come together to make magic. Rated #1 for customer support and managed services, #paid is leading the creator marketing space. Through innovative technology and a team of ambitious humans, we’re transforming the future of the creator economy.

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Accountant who can hit the ground running and take full ownership of key accounting functions at #paid. You’ll play a critical role in ensuring financial accuracy, managing payroll, leading monthly reconciliations, and driving operational excellence across our accounting processes.

This is a hands-on role for someone with proven experience in full-cycle accounting who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative, and remote-first environment. If you have a track record of getting things done, solving problems proactively, and bringing clarity to financial data, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Full-Cycle Accounting: Manage and execute end-to-end accounting functions, including journal entries, accruals, and month-end close processes
  • Payroll: Own payroll processing and compliance, collaborating with People Ops to ensure accuracy and timeliness across provinces
  • Reconciliations: Lead monthly balance sheet and account reconciliations, investigating and resolving discrepancies to ensure accuracy
  • Revenue Recognition: A strong understanding of revenue recognition with experience managing different revenue streams.
  • Accounts Payable: Oversee all AP activity, ensuring timely, accurate, and policy-compliant payments to vendors and creators
  • Expense Management: Own tools like Float and Navan, ensuring adherence to internal policies and complete documentation
  • Fixed Assets & Prepaids: Maintain accurate schedules and ensure proper treatment for amortization and reporting
  • Process Improvement: Identify and implement improvements to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and support scalability
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Revenue, Operations, and People teams to improve financial visibility and support business decisions
  • Audit & Reporting Support: Assist with year-end audits, tax filings, and ad hoc financial reporting

To be successful, you’ll need to

  • Proven experience: 3–5+ years in full-cycle accounting with clear examples of independently managing payroll, reconciliations, and month-end close
  • Accounting education: Degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field with CPA designation (or in progress) preferred
  • Payroll expertise: Strong working knowledge of Canadian payroll practices, legislation, and tools like ADP.
  • Detail orientation: Meticulous with numbers and able to spot discrepancies or inefficiencies
  • Initiative & ownership: Proactive and solutions-oriented with a track record of making improvements without needing to be asked
  • Tech-savvy: Comfortable using accounting software like QuickBooks, NetSuite, or Xero along with Excel or Google Sheets
  • Startup mindset: Adaptable, curious, and excited to thrive in a fast-paced, remote environment

About you

  • You take ownership and pride yourself on accuracy and efficiency
  • You’ve led accounting processes in previous roles, not just supported them
  • You’re energized by solving problems and improving how things are done
  • You collaborate well and can explain financial concepts to non-finance teammates
  • You stay calm under pressure and know how to prioritize when things get busy
  • You care about the details but don’t get stuck in them—you move things forward
  • You’re excited by the idea of working in a fast-growing company where your impact is visible

Nice to have

  • Experience supporting US payroll or multi-currency accounting
  • Familiarity with SaaS or marketplace business models
  • Experience working in a remote or distributed team environment
