Accounting Manager

About Tradeify

Tradeify is a proprietary trading firm that funds and supports traders worldwide. We're growing quickly, and we're looking for an Accounting Manager to keep our books accurate, our close fast, and our controls and audit readiness strong as we scale.

The Role

As Accounting Manager, you'll run the day-to-day accounting function: the monthly close, financial reporting, technical revenue accounting, and the processes and controls behind them. Reporting to the Controller, you'll manage the accounting team, serve as a primary point of contact for external auditors, and partner with Finance, Operations, and Payments to build scalable systems for a high-volume, global business.

What You'll Do

Accounting & Close

• Lead the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close, ensuring accurate and timely financial statements

• Oversee general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll accounting, and bank and payment processor reconciliations

• Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations, journal entries, and flux analyses

• Manage multi-entity and multi-currency accounting, including intercompany transactions

Revenue & ASC 606

• Apply revenue recognition under ASC 606, including identifying performance obligations, determining transaction price, and allocating and recognizing revenue appropriately

• Account for high-volume transactional revenue such as evaluation fees, subscriptions, and resets, including refunds, discounts, and other variable consideration

• Prepare and maintain technical accounting memos and revenue policy documentation, and assess the accounting impact of new products, pricing changes, and contract terms

• Maintain deferred revenue schedules and reconcile them to the general ledger and payment processor data

• Oversee accounting for trader payouts, including accruals, liabilities, and reconciliations

Audit, Controls & Compliance

• Serve as the primary liaison to external auditors, managing audit planning, PBC (prepared-by-client) requests, workpapers, and timelines

• Prepare and maintain audit-ready support schedules, reconciliations, and documentation throughout the year, not just at year-end

• Respond to auditor inquiries and resolve audit adjustments and findings, driving remediation and follow-up

• Help design, document, and test internal controls over financial reporting, and identify and close control gaps

• Coordinate with tax advisors and bookkeepers on tax filings and regulatory compliance

• Develop and document accounting procedures, close checklists, and process narratives in partnership with the Controller

Team & Process

• Support budgeting, forecasting, and management reporting with clear variance analysis

• Identify opportunities to automate and improve accounting workflows and systems

• Hire, coach, and develop accounting team members

What You'll Bring

Required

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field

• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 2+ years in a supervisory or management role

• Strong knowledge of US GAAP, with hands-on experience applying ASC 606 to real transactions

• Direct experience supporting external financial statement audits, including PBC preparation, workpapers, and auditor communication

• Experience with month-end close processes and balance sheet reconciliations

• Hands-on experience with an ERP or accounting platform (e.g., NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage Intacct)

• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills

• Experience with multi-entity consolidation and reconciling high-volume transaction data

• Excellent attention to detail, with strong written and verbal communication

Preferred

• CPA or equivalent certification

• Public accounting or audit background (Big 4 or mid-tier firm)

• Experience drafting technical accounting memos and evaluating complex revenue arrangements

• Experience in fintech, trading, payments, e-commerce, or another high-volume digital business

• Experience with payment processors (e.g., Stripe) and crypto or alternative payment methods

• Familiarity with SOX-style internal controls and audit readiness

• Experience with BI or data tools (SQL, Looker, etc.) and process automation

What Success Looks Like

• Books closed within 7 business days with clean, reconciled accounts

• Revenue recognized accurately and consistently under ASC 606, with documented policies and supporting memos

• Smooth, on-schedule audits with minimal adjustments and timely resolution of findings

• Documented, tested, and auditable processes and controls

• Clear, trusted financial reporting delivered to leadership on a predictable schedule

• A strong, engaged accounting team

Why Work With Us

• Get in on the ground floor. Tradeify is growing fast, and our finance and accounting function is growing with it. You'll join at a stage where the foundations are still being built, so your work will shape how we operate for years to come.

• Be part of a growing team. You'll help hire and develop the people around you, and as we scale there will be room to grow into bigger responsibilities.

• Make a visible impact. Your processes, policies, and controls won't get lost in a big organization. Leadership will see and rely on them.

• Build it right. You'll have a real voice in choosing systems, automating workflows, and setting up a scalable, audit-ready function from the start.

• Work on interesting problems. High-volume transactions, a global trader base, and a fast-moving industry mean the work is never routine.
