Senior Accountant
Own the financial engine behind our two-sided ads marketplace.
At Thanks , we’re building a customer-first monetization platform that delivers growth without compromise - for advertisers, publishers, and consumers. We power growth for the world’s leading brands, delivering tens of millions of high-value “thanks” moments every month.
We’re hiring a Senior Accountant to own the day-to-day financial operations of the business, with a particular focus on revenue, billing, and financial accuracy.
This is a foundational role. You’ll manage how money moves through a complex, two-sided marketplace – across advertisers, affiliate platforms, and partners – ensuring everything is accurate, reconciled, and on time.
You’ll work closely with our Fractional CFO, but operate independently day-to-day. You’ll bring structure, reliability, and clarity to a critical part of the business.
What you’ll do
Own revenue, billing, and reconciliation: Manage end-to-end billing across advertisers and partners – including invoicing, payouts, and reconciliation across affiliate platforms (e.g. Impact, Rakuten). Ensure revenue is accurate, traceable, and complete.
Run clean, reliable financial operations: Own accounts payable and expense management. Ensure invoices are captured, approved, and paid on time. Build simple, effective processes that provide visibility and eliminate errors.
Support month-end close and reporting: Maintain clean, current books and support the monthly close. Partner with the Fractional CFO to deliver clear, reliable reporting and investor-ready outputs.
Own US payroll and compliance hygiene: Manage payroll via Rippling and ensure core US tax and compliance obligations are handled correctly. Keep processes clean, documented, and under control.
Improve systems and reduce manual work: Identify and implement improvements across the finance stack. Reduce manual inputs, streamline workflows, and build processes that scale.
Operate as a problem-solver: Work through ambiguity, resolve discrepancies, and keep things moving without waiting for perfect inputs.
Requirements
What we’re looking for
- 3–6 years’ experience in accounting or finance, with strong foundational training
- Degree-qualified in accounting, finance, or similar
- Experience handling revenue, billing, invoicing, or reconciliation
- Experience operating in fast-moving, ambiguous or unstructured environments (startup, scaleup, or consulting)
- Comfortable working with multi-party or performance-based revenue flows (e.g. marketplaces, affiliate, adtech, fintech)
- Strong grasp of core accounting processes (AP, AR, month-end close)
- Comfortable owning processes end-to-end and being accountable for outcomes
- High attention to detail with a focus on accuracy and completeness
- Ability to identify issues, work through ambiguity, and resolve discrepancies independently
- Track record of improving processes and reducing manual work
- Experience with accounting tools such as Xero, QuickBooks, or similar
- Clear and direct communicator
Nice to have
- Experience with affiliate platforms (e.g. Impact, Rakuten, CJ, Partnerize)
- Exposure to multi-entity or multi-currency environments
- Background in adtech, marketplaces, or performance-based revenue models
- Experience in an early-stage startup environment
Location & working style
- Strong preference for US West Coast-based candidates to enable effective collaboration across time zones
- Open to other US locations for exceptional candidates
- Remote-first, with a high degree of trust and ownership
