Role - Finance & Accounting Manager
Location: Remote
Type: Full-time
Own the finance function at WeirdCo. You’ll be our first dedicated finance hire, which means you’ll build the processes, lead the AP team, and own the numbers we use to make decisions. This is an opportunity for a motivated individual to set the foundation for a finance team from the ground up.
Weird Co. Values
We presume trust, have each other’s backs, and never compromise on excellence.
You
Have run day-to-day accounting and AP in a high-growth startup, a consumer products or games business, or a similarly fast-moving company
Are equally comfortable closing the books and building a forecast, and you like both
Are a professional self-starter who excels in a chaotic, fast-moving startup and doesn’t need a playbook handed to you
Are emotionally intelligent, resilient, and thrive on direct feedback
Treat accuracy as non-negotiable but know when “good enough” is the right call to keep the business moving
Are curious about how a trading card game business makes money, from print runs and distribution to licensing and royalties
What you’ll do
Lead our external AP and book keeping teams, setting priorities, tightening processes, and making sure vendors and partners are paid accurately and on time
Own the monthly close, from reconciliations and accruals to financial statements, and improve it as we scale
Build and maintain our forecasts and financial projections, and keep them current as the business changes
Build and manage waterfall models for WeirdCo and make sure payments tie out to agreements
Partner with leadership on budgeting, cash flow planning, and pricing and print-run economics
Put in place the controls, systems, and documentation a growing company needs, including audit and tax readiness
Be the finance voice in conversations with partners, vendors, and advisors, and translate the numbers into plain English for the rest of the team
Help us decide what the next finance hires should be, and recruit them
Application requirements
5+ years in accounting or finance, with experience managing people or an AP function
Strong command of GAAP, month-end close, and financial reporting
Hands-on experience building forecasts, projections, and waterfall or distribution models in Excel or Google Sheets
Experience with QuickBooks and AP automation tools
Comfortable owning a budget and being judged on close timeliness, forecast accuracy, and clean books
