Finance & Accounting Manager

Too Lost is seeking our second hire in Accounting & Finance to partner directly with our Head of Finance. About Too Lost Too Lost is a music and technology company, providing SaaS solutions for independent music rights holders. Our distribution and publishing services deliver, monetize and protect songs across the globe for over 250,000+ musicians, record labels, studios, brands, investors, and platforms. The Role We have reached a stage of growth where our financial complexity—driven by global royalties, technology fees, and high-volume transactions—requires a dedicated technical expert who is comfortable managing the full accounting cycle. In this role, you will be the primary person responsible for our day-to-day accounting operations while helping us stand up our formal FP&A function. You aren’t just overseeing the books; you are actively preparing them. This is a role for a technical accountant who wants to move beyond "just the numbers" to help us forecast our future and build the systems that will support our next phase of growth. This is a hybrid full time position work from our New York, NY office. Our hybrid schedule requires employees to work from the office 4 days a week and allows for 1 day work from home. What You’ll Be Doing: Own the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes. This includes preparing journal entries, performing reconciliations, and ensuring our financial statements are accurate and delivered on time. Be the lead on our most complex accounting areas, specifically Revenue Recognition across our distribution and royalty streams. Cleaning up the Chart of Accounts; troubleshooting NetSuite sync errors. Maintaining the tax calendar; preparing documentation for annual 1099 filings. Manage and optimize our Ramp pipeline; ensuring correct department coding for all vendor invoices and expenses. Ensure we are compliant with GAAP as our transaction volume scales. Once the books are closed, you’ll help turn that data into insight. You will assist the Head of Finance in investigating budget-to-actual variances and building our first formal forecasting models and departmental budgets. As an early hire, you will identify where our current workflows are manual and implement automations, systems, or policies that will make our accounting & finance function more efficient and transparent. Work across all teams to help them understand their spending and the financial impact of their projects, translating accounting data into clear, actionable advice for the business. Ensure we remain "audit-ready" at all times by maintaining rigorous documentation and internal controls. What We Are Looking For: You have 5+ years of accounting experience, including at least 2 years in public accounting, and hold a CPA. Experience with SaaS, royalties, or digital media is a significant plus. You thrive in a lean, two-person environment without a ton of rigid structure. You view a blank canvas as an opportunity to build, rather than a source of frustration. You have a strong handle on technical revenue accounting and genuinely enjoy setting up and optimizing tools. Experience with NetSuite or similar ERPs is highly desirable. When a system glitches or a transaction doesn't reconcile, you love digging into the "why" to find a solution. You take pride in a perfect reconciliation and a clean audit trail. You are energized by high-level strategic growth, but equally comfortable staying grounded "in the weeds" of complex datasets and the day-to-day execution (invoice coding, reconciliations) required to keep a growing company healthy. In a small, growing company, you will interface constantly with cross-functional teams. You can easily translate a balance sheet, variance report, or complex accounting principle into plain, approachable language for a non-finance audience. What Makes Too Lost Different? You’ll be a core architect: Shape the team and its future direction. You’ll never be siloed: Work across functions and levels, directly impacting the company’s trajectory. You’ll grow as the team grows: Be positioned for advancement as new hires join under your leadership. Flexibility: No two days are the same; you’ll have broad scope and influence. Salary Range: $135,000 - $145,000 Ready to help build Too Lost from the ground up one smart, scalable process at a time? Apply today and make your mark! #J-18808-Ljbffr
