Accounting Specialist
About Decimal
Our mission is to solve accounting operations for small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs). Currently, 60% of the 6 million SMBs in the United States say they are unhappy with their accounting operations: it's a mess of disconnected processes, technology, and people. To solve this need, we take over our clients’ accounting operations by pairing our people with our technology platform that unifies financial data, workflow, and communications. The Decimal platform helps automate large chunks of repetitive manual processes and manages the completion of work that can’t be automated.
We are well-funded (in 2022 we closed a $9.2mm seed round and closed our first acquisition), capital-efficient, and building for the long term. This is a great opportunity for you to join a fast-growing tech company that is fundamentally changing an outdated, slow-moving industry. Decimal is headquartered in the cloud which means we invest in full-time remote work from your home office. We have communities of remote employees across the US - join our team and see why we are so excited to work here!
