More about this role

We're looking for a Senior Accountant to help drive automation, transparency, and greater efficiency across Lemonade's financial operations. You'll sit within our Finance team, playing a key role in the month-end close process and the daily financial operations that keep the business running smoothly. This isn't a back-office role — you'll be an integral part of projects that help us scale, with real ownership over the processes you touch.

We believe three things matter for every role at Lemonade: drive to push through challenges, efficiency that keeps standards high while moving fast, and adaptability that lets you pivot with data and AI insights. These aren't buzzwords, they're how we actually work.

Our AI-first approach isn't just a tagline either. We're building the future of insurance with AI at the center, and we need people who are genuinely excited to learn and grow alongside these tools.
