RedCircle is a venture-backed technology platform that helps podcasters monetize and manage their content through analytics, growth tools, payments, and advertising revenue. As Finance Operations Manager, you'll own the financial engine for a business involving thousands of podcasters, complex advertising campaigns, and thousands of monthly transactions.
You'll report to leadership and work cross-functionally with operations, advertising, and account management teams. Key responsibilities include:
• Own the monthly financial close process: ensure accurate transaction recording, complete reconciliations, and deliver financial reports on schedule
• Manage advertising revenue reconciliation and invoicing, working with advertising operations and account management to ensure campaigns are accurately billed and revenue properly accounted for

• Identify opportunities to improve and automate financial workflows to increase accuracy, efficiency, and scalability

• Support leadership and other teams on finance-related projects as needed
This is a hands-on role with significant ownership.
