As our first dedicated accounting hire, you will own how Forus closes the books, reports financials, and builds the systems and controls that strengthen our financial foundation as we scale.

- Deep working knowledge of US GAAP, financial controls, and technical accounting
- Excellent written and verbal communication: capable of translating complex financial insights into clear narrative
- High NPS with your former teammates
- Bonus: Experience standing up an accounting function from scratch at an early-stage or hyper-scaling company
