More about this role

Behind every loan, card, and transaction at Avant is an accounting team dedicated to accuracy, supporting millions of middle-income Americans in accessing credit. We're looking for a Senior Accountant who wants to do more than close the books. You'll own complex operational accounting processes end to end, become the go-to expert for the areas you run, and lead the push to automate the manual work that slows accounting down, bringing AI and emerging technology into reconciliations, exception review, and variance analysis with the controls and auditability to back it up. If you're the kind of accountant who spots the broken process before it becomes an audit finding and would rather rebuild it than work around it, you'll fit here.
