Type: Full TimeMin. Experience: Experienced

Join us as a Senior Finance and Accounting Manager at DuckDuckGo and become part of the team shaping our growing finance and accounting function. 

As a member of our small Finance team, you will collaborate with internal and external contributors to make sure we're accurately reporting historical financial data as well as projecting future performance through maintaining our financial model. You will also share the responsibility of overseeing our external accounting consultant to ensure day-to-day accounting functions such as payroll, bill pay and bank reconciliations are being completed timely and accurately.

DuckDuckGo is a fully-remote company and our employees live all over the world!  We empower our team with personal autonomy on team projects. This means you must be self-directed and self-motivated to succeed. If that seems awesome and you identify with our core values -- build trust, question assumptions, and validate direction -- then you'll fit right in. 

What you will do:

• Co-own the company financial model and update monthly
• Execute high impact special projects such as modeling potential business opportunities
• Assist with the monthly financial statement close
• Occasionally run payroll, pay bills, and work on ad-hoc reporting and other tasks as needed

In addition to the annual Company and team meet ups, you can expect to travel to our HQ in Paoli, PA twice a year to work with our external accountants for the audit and tax return prep.

What we are looking for:

• 7-10 years of progressive finance experience. Corporate FP&A experience is a requirement, and a background in tech is preferred.
• Advanced Excel and modeling skills including experience creating dashboards
• Must be willing to work in North American time zones to communicate effectively with external and internal stakeholders and travel as required.

Other things to know:

• We are a small, remote team in different time zones and communicate with a variety of tools throughout the day. You should feel comfortable with the intricacies of this type of work situation.
• Sometimes we meet up!  You can expect to travel at least 2x a year: once for our all-hands meet-up and another for a team retreat (each ~4-5 days). These are in addition to any travel required for your specific role.
• We want to have a major impact on raising the standard of trust online.  To do this, we believe in a focused approach, with company-wide objectives, and with each team member working on a single top priority at a time.
• Our work philosophy is built upon empowered project management. All team members have opportunities to run projects.
• All projects are run transparently, and we encourage everyone to participate in areas of interest throughout the company.  Anyone and everyone can (and should) ask questions and offer feedback around the product and internal projects.
• We try to exemplify our values (build trust, question assumptions, and validate direction) in everything we do.
