About the role

As Head of Revenue Accounting, you will lead and build Peregrine’s revenue accounting function for its next stage of growth. You will own revenue recognition end to end, from contract intake and ASC 606 analysis through billing, the monthly revenue waterfall, and the close. Just as important, you will build the infrastructure that lets the business scale: audit-ready processes, strong controls, and systems that turn highly complex data from a variety of sources into numbers we can stand behind. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Experience in a fast-growing environment, comfortable with ambiguity, with a record of building audit-ready processes, controls, and documentation, IPO or first SOX readiness experience is a plus
  • Strong data skills: comfortable working with large data volumes from disparate sources, in advanced Excel, SQL, or equivalent, and AI-native, with examples of automating close, reconciliation, or reporting work
  • Skilled at building strong relationships across the business, with excellent written and verbal communication
  • Proven ability to recruit, manage, and develop accounting talent, international or multi-entity experience is a plus
  • This role is in-office four days a week at our San Francisco location (2nd & Market)
