About the Role

We are seeking a Vice President of Accounting & Tax. As a key member of the team, you'll own the close, the financial statements, controls, and tax posture of a fast-growing collectibles platform. This is a unique opportunity to build and scale a talented accounting team through our next phase of growth. You'll have oversight of accounting, tax, technical accounting, internal controls, and accounting operations. This is a hands-on role that will need to be close to the operational day-to-day while also helping to scale for the long term.

What You'll Do

  • Own all accounting operations: general ledger, revenue, AP/AR, payroll, consolidations, equity accounting, and the monthly, quarterly, and annual close
  • Own the ASC 606 revenue framework across every line: marketplace transactions, grading and authentication, vaulting and storage fees, repacks and digital pack openings, and shipping; including the principal versus agent determination for each and the documentation behind it
  • Oversee direct and indirect tax reporting, scaling opportunities, and long-term roadmap
  • Design and operate the internal control environment, and enable effective control management that doesn't constrain business growth
  • Own the external audit end-to-end: auditor remit, PBC discipline, and a clean opinion delivered on schedule
  • Own the accounting technology stack: ERP configuration and roadmap, revenue and close automation, tax engine, and the data pipeline from our platform into the ledger
  • Partner with leadership and other cross-functional Finance teams to assess growth opportunities and the associated accounting and tax implications
  • Build, mentor, and lead the accounting and tax team

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; active CPA
  • 15+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 5+ years leading a team as a Controller, VP of Accounting, or equivalent
  • Familiarity with direct and indirect tax topics and ability to assess risk
  • Hands-on ERP ownership (NetSuite or equivalent), including implementation or a major re-implementation
  • Experience in collectibles, resale, or another category involving custody or physical inventory
  • Exposure to money movement and payment operations such as processors, settlement timing, chargebacks, and fraud loss accounting
  • Big 4 foundation with subsequent industry operating experience
  • AI-forward working style, actively using AI tooling to accelerate reconciliation, documentation, and technical research
