Who You Are :

You are an experienced and detail-oriented professional with a deep understanding of public company filing requirements and the skill set to drive process improvements as the company prepares for scale and, potentially, the public markets. You have a strong command of U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations, along with a proven ability to lead the preparation of 10-Ks, 10-Qs, and other filings. You’ve successfully worked through public company readiness or have supported companies transitioning into life as a public company.

You thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment and are comfortable building reporting infrastructure from the ground up, including establishing reporting calendars, implementing controls, and coordinating cross-functional teams. You’re proactive, highly organised, and an excellent communicator who can translate complex financial information into clear, investor-facing narratives. You’re also passionate about mentoring others, fostering education around public company requirements, and helping build a world-class reporting function that’s audit- and investor-ready.

What You’ll Be Doing :

• Play a key role in public company readiness, including building out reporting processes, and supporting the transition to public company operations.
• Help implement DFIN, Workiva or similar platform to streamline financial reporting processes and ensure consistency, version control, and auditability across all filings.
• Lead the preparation and filing of all SEC reports, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, S-1, and other required disclosures.
• Coordinate and manage the drafting, review, and submission process for SEC filings, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations.
• Respond to SEC comment letters and inquiries in collaboration with internal teams, external auditors, and legal counsel.
• Establish and manage the company’s public company reporting calendar, aligning cross-functional teams to meet key deadlines and filing requirements.
• Partner with legal, finance, investor relations, and accounting teams to gather, validate, and present relevant financial and narrative disclosures.
• Develop and maintain supporting documentation and audit-ready workpapers for all external financial reporting activities.
• Leverage AI tools and agents to enhance reporting accuracy, automate routine processes, and surface actionable insights across regulatory and investor-facing deliverables.
• Support the development of investor relations materials, including earnings releases, scripts, and presentations.
• Implement and continuously improve reporting tools, templates, and processes to support accuracy, timeliness, and scalability.
• Educate internal teams on public company reporting requirements and best practices; provide training and guidance as needed. Monitor changes in SEC regulations and accounting standards, and proactively assess and communicate their potential impact on disclosures and processes.
• Supporting accounting conclusions and disclosures by researching accounting matters, interpreting accounting guidance for proper treatment, and drafting technical accounting memos.
