About the Role
The GL Accounting Manager will be an integral part of the monthly close process, owning and reviewing core areas of the general ledger, and will help shape how our close runs as Patreon grows.
Responsibilities
- Review journal entries and reconciliations for core close areas, including accounts payable, T&E, general accruals, prepaid expenses, fixed assets, leases, investments, and other assets, to ensure all transactions are accounted for in accordance with US GAAP and company policies
- Review the close for our international entities (Ireland, Portugal, UK, and Australia)
- Run close completion and administration in NetSuite, including FX revaluation, consolidation, period management, reviewing allocations, and reviewing eliminations
- Review flux analysis on balance sheet and income statement accounts, ensuring significant fluctuations are explained and supported, and explaining the drivers clearly to accounting leadership
- Drive process improvements and automation initiatives, using AI, scripts, and workflow automation to reduce manual steps in the close and strengthen our control environment
- Partner with budget owners and cross-functional teams, including Tax, Treasury, and FinOps, so accruals are complete, accurate, and timely
- Serve as a primary contact for our auditors on the areas owned, preparing PBC schedules and memos, and designing, documenting, and running controls
Requirements

- 5+ years of accounting experience, including 3+ years of audit at a Big 4 or national firm and 2+ years in an industry accounting role on a GL, close, or controllership team
- Strong understanding of US GAAP and the full month-end close cycle, including areas such as accounts payable, T&E, general accruals, prepaid expenses, fixed assets, leases, investments, and other assets
- Experience reviewing high-volume reconciliations and tying system data back to the ledger, with hands-on experience in NetSuite and FloQast (or similar ERP and close tools) and strong spreadsheet skills
- Curiosity about AI and automation, and a track record of improving a process, not only running it
- Superior written and verbal communication skills, with experience partnering with non-finance teams
- Detail-oriented self-starter who manages multiple deadlines without sacrificing quality or accuracy and takes ownership of their work with integrity and accountability
- Hands-on, adaptable team player who thrives in a fast-paced environment and eagerly rolls up their sleeves to help wherever needed, including beyond their assigned responsibilities
