Description

Here at Hometap, we're collaborative, passionate, and always ready to roll up our sleeves to create solutions that help people get more out of homeownership — and out of life.

Our first product, a home equity investment, gives homeowners the opportunity to quickly access the equity they've built in their home to pay for what's most important to them, from handling debt to finally making much-needed renovations, without taking on debt.

We work hard, and have some fun along the way, too.

You don't have to take our word for it:

The Boston Globe

and

Comparably

have recognized us as a great place to work, and we've been honored for our commitment to innovation in the fintech space by

BostInno ,

HousingWire , and more

In case you need any more convincing, we also provide competitive compensation, healthcare coverage, unlimited PTO, a generous share package, and a strong culture with plenty of opportunities for team-building and camaraderie.

Interested in joining us on our mission to make homeownership less stressful and more accessible? We'd love to talk.

The Role:

The Hometap Finance team is focused on contributing to the growth and success of Hometap Equity Partners, and its associated investment vehicles, through accurate, timely, and insightful financial reporting & analysis; serving as a collaborative, trusted business partner to internal stakeholders to promote efficiency and scalability; working with prospective and current capital partners to deliver an A+ experience; and using data-driven insights to inform financial and operational decisions across the organization.

Finance is organized into three collaborative verticals:
Accounting, Capital Market Operations, and Strategic Finance.

Who you are:

We are seeking a Controller who will lead and grow the Accounting team and play a major role in Hometap's continued success.

This role will report to the VP of Finance and work closely with the other Finance verticals (Capital Market Operations & Strategic Finance) and across the overall organization.

In this role, you'll manage the Accounting Team and lead all accounting processes relating to Hometap's operating company (Opco).

Additionally, you'll play a key role in support of Capital Market Operations by providing leadership around financial statement presentation, accounting preferences & policies, and act as audit liaison for our investment funds, ensuring alignment between all of our entities.

The ideal candidate will bring a mix of public accounting and operating experience in a growth-stage environment, with deep accounting knowledge and a cross-functional, collaborative approach.

Community is at the core of what we do at Hometap.

While this role is fully remote, we're prioritizing candidates who will be available to come to our Boston office occasionally for work sessions and events.

If you feel you fit this category, we look forward to hearing from you

What you'll do:
Lead Hometap's accounting team and processes; manage and grow a four-person team, with a focus on fostering employee engagement and professional development
Own the timely completion of the month-end close for Opco, identifying and implementing process improvements to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the monthly, quarterly, and annual reporting process
Provide quality assurance on quarterly financial reporting for Funds
Lead the preparation and presentation of financial analysis and performance reports, along with MD&A commentary, for internal and external stakeholders
Oversee payroll processes for Hometap
Lead annual audit process for Opco and Funds, with external auditors, ensuring timely and accurate completion
Oversee tax filings and quarterly estimated payments for Opco and Funds, in conjunction with internal stakeholder and external tax advisors and fund accountants
Ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations
Research and author accounting policies and procedure documentation for existing business and research accounting implications for new product lines across Opco and Funds
Maintain and enhance internal systems, processes, and internal controls. Anticipate potential challenges and constantly seek opportunities to improve.
Support potential corporate transactions including capital raises or M&A integrations (systems and financial)
Professionally interact, and partner, with operational stakeholders/counterparts at our equity and debt investors

What you'll bring:

7+ years of relevant experience, with experience in both public and private accounting. A CPA is required, and the ideal candidate will have worked as a Controller in a related industry (credit, real estate, or private equity funds; other asset management; public equities)
Experience at a growth-stage business and in building, managing, and scaling accounting functions
Knowledge and experience with state and federal taxation for pass-through entities and corporations
Proficiency with using Excel to manipulate and analyze financial statements and related data
Strong critical thinking skills, including the ability to identify and summarize key points in any analysis
Developed prioritization skills and ability to balance both short-term and long-term objectives while maintaining strong attention to detail
History of working cross-functionally and building positive relationships with people and teams across a diverse organization, maintaining effective cross-functional communication
An ownership approach to your work with a track record of delivering business results through operational excellence in a fast-paced environment
Curiosity and desire to implement new ideas and processes to drive efficiencies and scalability, with experience putting this into practice
Willingness and ability to coach, mentor, and develop team members and help them realize their full potential
Experience with Netsuite and other accounting software
Hometap is on a mission to make homeownership less stressful and more accessible.

Our home equity investment product provides homeowners with a fast, simple, and straightforward way to access the equity in their home without taking out a loan or having to sell.

By investing alongside homeowners, Hometap offers debt-free cash in exchange for a share of their home's future value — all without any monthly payments or interest over the life of the investment.

Through a combination of financial innovation and best-in-class customer service, Hometap enables people to get more from homeownership so they can get more from life.

Hometap believes that our differences are what bring us together, and one of our biggest priorities is creating a diverse workplace that welcomes and values each team member's unique perspective, background, and ideas.

All roles here are filled based solely on candidates' qualifications and our business needs.

Hometap is based in Boston, but will consider remote work for this position; however, the position must be performed in the United States entirely outside of Colorado.
