About JobGet

As the #1 app focused on everyday workers, JobGet is redefining the future of hiring. Founded in 2019, JobGet began as the only mobile-first hiring platform for everyday workers. Since then, we've grown by joining forces with Snagajob, the largest hourly job board in the U.S., followed by Seasoned, the leading platform for restaurant hiring, and most recently RippleMatch, the leading early-career recruitment platform for students and emerging talent. Each acquisition has brought JobGet closer to the frontline, making the platform faster, smarter, and more effective.

While most platforms chase volume, JobGet is laying the foundation for a new kind of hiring infrastructure focused on precision, speed, and real outcomes. Our AI-powered engine learns, adapts, and improves continuously. Employers don't just get candidates, they get hires. Workers don't just search, they get matched. The result is a more efficient hiring process with less friction and better results.

We serve a diverse range of industries, from food service and customer support to healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing. With access to over 200 million job seekers, our platform leverages cutting-edge AI to match qualified, role-ready candidates, automating key parts of the hiring process for faster decisions and better outcomes. By combining scale with precision, we're transforming how businesses hire and how people find meaningful work.

Our mission is simple: to help everyday workers thrive by providing accessible, frictionless hiring solutions that deliver real results. Join us as we continue to build the future of work for the millions of people who power our world every day.

What You'll Do

As Assistant Controller, you'll own the accuracy and integrity of JobGet's books, driving the monthly and annual close while strengthening the controls and processes that keep a fast-growing, multi-entity organization audit-ready. Reporting into the Director of Finance, you'll be a hands-on technical owner — someone who can close the books independently, then step back and improve how they're closed. This role also plays a direct part in JobGet's ongoing M&A activity, helping integrate acquired entities into our accounting systems and controls without missing a beat. You’ll also join a team that actively embraces AI to work more efficiently. We’re increasingly using AI tools across Finance to speed up the close, reconciliations, and reporting, and we’re looking for someone curious and eager to experiment with these tools and put them into practice. 

Financial Close & Reporting

• Own the Close: Prepare and lead the monthly and annual consolidated financial statements, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and on-time delivery across all entities.
• Drive Close Execution: Perform monthly and annual financial close functions, including journal entry preparation, account analysis, and variance review.
• Manage Contracts & Systems: Develop a complete understanding of contract management and the underlying software systems required to support accurate revenue and cost recognition.
• Partner with FP&A on Results: Work closely with the FP&A team to review monthly financial results and investigate variances, helping resolve issues so the numbers are accurate and clearly understood. 
• Support Budgeting: Assist in the annual budget cycle, partnering with Finance leadership to build and validate departmental and consolidated budgets.

Reconciliations & General Ledger Integrity

• Reconcile with Precision: Perform all reconciliations of general ledger, bank, and intercompany accounts, resolving discrepancies quickly and thoroughly.
• Safeguard Data Integrity: Own the accuracy of general ledger accounting, including the integrity of data inputs and system integrations.
• Report on Demand: Produce ad-hoc reports and maintain detailed, audit-ready support for financial and management reporting needs.

Controls, Compliance & Audit

• Lead Year-End Audits: Manage year-end financial statement audits, serving as a key point of contact for external auditors and coordinating documentation and responses.
• Strengthen Controls: Ensure internal accounting policies, procedures, and financial controls are in place and consistently followed company-wide.
• Ensure Regulatory Compliance: Support compliance with US and Canadian statutory, tax, and reporting requirements, coordinating with external advisors as needed.

Cross-Functional Partnership & Process Improvement

• Partner Across Teams: Collaborate with Finance, People Ops, and Operations stakeholders to resolve issues and support company-wide initiatives.
• Support M&A Integration: Assist the Director of Finance in integrating acquired entities into JobGet's financial systems, controls, and reporting cadence.
• Improve How We Work: Identify and implement process improvements that increase the speed, accuracy, and scalability of the accounting close cycle.

Who You Are

• 5-8 years of progressive experience in accounting or finance, including direct ownership of the monthly and annual close process.
• Strong understanding of US GAAP; working knowledge of Canadian ASPE/IFRS reporting requirements is a strong asset.
• Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation preferred.
• Proficiency with accounting software (e.g. QuickBooks Online, Sage Intacct, NetSuite) and advanced Excel skills.
• Hands-on experience managing general ledger, bank, and intercompany reconciliations at scale.
• Experience leading or heavily supporting year-end financial statement audits with external auditors.
• Working knowledge of Canadian statutory and tax compliance requirements; US multi-entity exposure is a plus.
• Experience supporting acquisitions, integrations, or other significant business change is a strong asset.
• Enthusiasm and curiosity for using AI and automation tools to work smarter.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a proactive approach to identifying and resolving issues before they become problems.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex accounting concepts clearly to non-finance stakeholders.
• Proven ability to work independently, prioritize competing deadlines, and operate with urgency in a fast-paced environment.
• High level of integrity, ethical conduct, and professionalism in handling sensitive financial information.
• Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy, with a genuine commitment to producing high-quality, audit-ready work.
• Comfortable operating without a large team around you — someone who takes ownership rather than waiting for direction.

At JobGet, we're looking for people who see themselves in our Values. If you have made a measurable impact in your career and are known for your grit and curiosity, we encourage you to apply. We look forward to hearing from you.
