Finance Associate at Metabase - Work From Anywhere

Metabase is the easiest way for people to get insights from their data, from tiny startups who get up and running quickly to major corporations with tens of thousands of users. That's why people love us.

We bring data tools with the elegance and simplicity of consumer products to the crufty world of enterprise business intelligence. We provide an opinionated open source starting point for how companies should measure, analyze and share their data, which is used by tens of thousands of companies.

Metabase’s BizOps & Finance team is looking to add a quantitatively strong, systems-minded generalist to support our ongoing financial workflows. This role will require wearing many hats: helping analyze and maintain clean financial data, overseeing our externally sourced bookkeepers, driving audit and tax initiatives, and building scalable systems to automate and streamline our financial workflows. We’re looking for someone with strong analytical skills and an operational mindset — whether or not you come from a traditional finance background.
The role offers significant exposure to the financial management of a rapidly growing company and the opportunity to contribute to the scaling of our financial functions. We are a small team, so you should be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in wherever needed.

Responsibilities

  • Implementing systems that allow us to better manage our financial operations at scale
  • Working with our external financial accountants, managing the month-end-close process
  • Project-managing and liaising with our external financial auditors
  • Performing ad-hoc data analyses in support of tax submissions and making sure things stay on-track
  • Owning our expense processes and procedures
  • Leading cross-functional projects to tackle operational problems as they arise
  • Getting stuck in where needed
  • About you

  • Your mind thinks in terms of spreadsheets; you know how to structure, analyze, and validate financial data with clarity and rigor. You can spot inconsistencies quickly, and enjoy getting to the right answer.
  • You have experience leading complex projects with multiple workstreams and deadlines
  • You are adept at managing vendors, building strong relationships, and delivering feedback when needed
  • You have strong organizational skills with a high attention to detail: you enjoy checking items off your checklist, and can seamlessly balance multiple threads of work
  • You ideally have 2-5 years experience, preferably in a startup, consulting firm, or finance function
  • Based in the US or Canada
  • Low-ego attitude: no job should be too small or too large
  • Nice-to-have: familiarity with accounting principles or coursework
  • Nice-to-have: some knowledge of SQL and / or a scripting language to help automate things (e.g. python, javascript, VBA)
  • We're a global team (50% outside the US), fully distributed (from Thailand to California), who get things done asynchronously, with plenty of uninterrupted time, supporting each other to do the best work of our careers. We offer flexibility (define your own schedule and work from wherever you want), autonomy, and an environment that fosters growth, learning, and development. We're relentlessly user-focused and believe in building long-term value, not short-term hacks. And we raised a $30M Series B to take our approach to the next level for years to come.

    For U.S. applicants: Metabase participates in the federal E-Verify program, which confirms employment authorization of newly hired U.S. based employees. E-Verify is not used as a tool to pre-screen candidates and is only initiated upon hire.
