VP, Financial Operations

Remote / Austin, TX / Full-time / Contract-to-hire / Agency

Assurely is looking for someone to manage our Financial Operations as well as contribute to the building and refining of our current financial controls, operations, and planning. 

Are you a detail-oriented, organized, and just get-it-done kind of person?  Are you more than a controller? Are you a financial operator that in addition to doing the day-to-day work,  contributes to strategic decisions? Do you thrive with diverse responsibilities while remaining diligent with the importance of detail-driven financial operations tasks? If this sounds like you, read on.

Our ideal candidate will have insurance experience and be able to both execute and update scalable financial operations.  We are looking for a doer who understands how things traditionally work, how things should work in the future, and be able to balance the duality of pragmatism vs. perfection on how to best implement the most appropriate financial operations solution for Assurely. 

Your core responsibilities will be to execute on the daily financial operations such as maintaining and managing financial statements, monthly reconciliation/ accounting close, payroll, budgets, and tax compliance, but you 100% will be asked be involved in more.  We are looking for someone that will enjoy those expanded responsibilities.
