    Senior Director, Assistant Controller - New York City, United States - Warby Parker

    Default job background
    Description
    Warby Parker is looking for a sharp, motivated Assistant Controller to join our Finance team. In this role, you'll manage the monthly and quarterly financial close activities.

    You'll hold participants accountable by running a disciplined close process and coordinating activities and analysis with teams across the accounting and finance organization.


    Our Assistant Controller will oversee all aspects of the close, including but not limited to product margin, accounting for our retail stores (e.g., fixed assets and leases), corporate and consolidations, and treasury.

    In this highly collaborative role, you'll work directly with stakeholders across the organization like our Supply Chain, Retail, Product Strategy, and Technology teams.

    Our ideal candidate is a curious, independent problem-solver who doesn't simply take things as they are, but continuously pushes boundaries and challenges the status quo to improve processes as they go.

    Sound a lot like you? Read on


    What you'll do:

    • Lead the preparation, completeness, and accuracy of all aspects of the monthly financial close processes in partnership with others on the team, monitoring close progression and ensuring that tasks are completed in an efficient and sustainable way
    • Directly oversee and supervise our controllership functions, including corporate accounting and consolidation, retail, product margin, and treasury subfunctions
    • Ensure all balance sheet accounts are reconciled on a monthly basis with detailed review procedures performed over the account analysis-and review key estimates on a quarterly basis, such as inventory and refund reserves
    • Lead external audit activities and audit preparation
    • Drive a continuous improvement approach to develop strategies that improve accounting operations efficiencies, effectiveness, and scalability, including the development and execution of policy, process, and system changes
    • Own the design and execution of relevant internal controls and provide guidance and leadership to the team with regards to SOX compliance
    • Manage, mentor, and train managers as well as other team members
    • Work cross-functionally with counterparts in FP&A, product strategy, and other departments to ensure that Warby Parker's growth is supported by appropriate accounting policies and principles
    • Assist with other special projects as needed

    Who you are:

    • Backed by 11+ years of experience in an accounting leadership role at a public or private company
    • An expert in (and experienced with) month-end close procedures, operations, accruals, internal controls, foreign currency issues, and analytics
    • Well-versed in US GAAP
    • Ultra-proficient in Excel
    • Comfortable analyzing large data sets with unknowns
    • An independent worker with strong communication and problem-solving skills
    • Successful in a busy, fast-paced, and ever-changing environment
    • A strong leader who's always adaptable and open to suggesting a different way of doing things
    • Not on the Office of Inspector General's List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE)

    Extra credit:

    • Experience with Oracle and Looker
    • A CPA holder
    Some benefits of working at Warby Parker for full-time employees:


    • Health, vision, and dental insurance
    • Life and AD&D Insurance
    • Flexible vacation policy
    • Paid Holidays
    • Retirement savings plan with a company match
