Accounting Manager

Job Description

Job Description

Location: Austin (TX)
Employment Type: Full-time, In-Office
Department: Finance
Salary: Top of market salary + equity

We’re hiring an Accounting Manager to own the close, build the next-generation accounting function at a fast-growing P&C insurance MGA (managing general agent), and use AI to make accounting faster, cleaner, and more scalable.

You’ll report directly to our Chief Financial Officer, work closely with senior leadership, and have meaningful impact on the decisions and processes that shape Steadily’s next chapter.

The accounting looks much more like SaaS commission revenue than traditional carrier accounting. This is not statutory carrier accounting. The work centers on contract revenue, commissions, carrier arrangements, revenue recognition, and building scalable accounting systems.

We don't want a process-runner. We want a builder.

What You’ll Do

• Own the Close: Run monthly, quarterly, and annual close. Journal entries, reconciliations, variance analysis, consolidation as we add entities.

• Run Commission Revenue Accounting: Multi-carrier commission and override calculations, contract revenue, deferred revenue treatment under ASC 606. This is the highest-leverage domain you'll learn here.

• Build with AI: Use AI to shorten the close cycle, automate reconciliations, and reduce manual journal entry volume. Bring your own ideas. We’ll back the ones that work.

• Own Audit Prep & Execution: Lead audit preparation, support the external audit cycle, and handle ad hoc carrier-partner reviews.

• Be a Strategic Partner: Provide financial analysis and insights to the CFO and senior leadership to guide key business decisions.

Your Background

• 5+ years of accounting experience. Strong preference for in-house experience at a fast-growing company. Big 4 / public-accounting candidates actively looking to move into industry are also welcome, especially those with audit experience in financial services, fintech, insurance, or scale-up tech.

• CPA strongly preferred (or actively progressing toward it).

• Revenue accounting depth or curiosity. Commission revenue, SaaS revenue, ASC 606, or insurance MGA / broker accounting are all directly relevant.

• Strong understanding of GAAP and financial statements.

• Comfortable wearing many hats, working autonomously, and building processes where they do not yet exist.

Compensation and Benefits

• Compensation: Top of market salary + equity

• Time Off: 3 weeks PTO + 6 federal holidays

• Insurance: Medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA, FSA

• Retirement: 401(k)

• Perks: Free snacks, team lunches, collaborative office culture

Location

• Austin, TX

• We are in office 4 days a week and located near Mopac and W Anderson ln. North Central Austin.
