Revenue Accounting Analyst

Description

Join our winning team, recently honored on Forbes' list of America's Best Startup Employers for 2025!

The Helper Bees (THB) was created to fill an obvious need in an underserved community. Inspired by love and brought to reality through passion and determination, The Helper Bees was founded to empower older adult citizens and their families in their search for quality, affordable in-home care providers. We do this by providing older adults the ability to easily review, choose, and access affordable quality in-home helpers.

The Helper Bees mission is to help people stay home longer through data-driven services that transform both the payer and the care-recipient experience.

At THB, we define our company culture through our Core Values:

• Quickly iterate through solutions - We move at a fast pace which requires quick iterations to find a path to a repeatable solution
• Seek ways to create immediate impact - Be thoughtful and proactive in how you make an impact on your team. Actively look for ways to make a fast, positive impact.
• Bee the teammate you want to work with - We work as a team, help each other and encourage each other
• Ask questions, answer questions - You can't iterate through solutions if you don't ask the right questions which is why there is an expectation that questions should be asked. When you know the answer, being a good teammate means chiming in to get others up to speed.
• Take the time to celebrate wins - It's so easy for a team that is heads down to forget about all the great things they've accomplished. That's why we make it a priority to remind ourselves to create space to celebrate wins, big or small.

Job Summary:


The Revenue Accounting Analyst supports accurate, timely, and insightful revenue reporting across THB's healthcare and technology-enabled services. This role sits at the intersection of accounting, analytics, and operations: you will help ensure revenue is recorded correctly, explain what is driving performance, improve the quality of the underlying data, and make recurring processes more scalable.

This is a strong opportunity for an analyst who enjoys both the details and the bigger picture. You will work with the Revenue Manager, Controller, FP&A, Operations, Sales, Legal, and other business partners to support the monthly close, revenue forecasting, audit readiness, contract and billing analysis, and finance process improvements.

The person who succeeds in this role will not wait for a perfect dataset or a perfectly defined problem. They will ask good questions, establish a practical approach, document assumptions, communicate early, and follow work through to completion.
