Senior Manager, Revenue Accounting

As a Senior Revenue Manager, you will keep the revenue close accurate and on time while partnering with finance, systems, and business leaders on long-running process and systems transformation programs, including the use of AI and automation in revenue operations. You will act as second reviewer on revenue transactions and final reviewer on high-value items, coordinate with FP&A; on forecasting and variance analysis, and work closely with our India-based revenue managers, who serves as first reviewer, in a follow-the-sun close model. Hands-on experience with Salesforce, NetSuite and billing or revenue automation platform such as Zuora, Zuora RevPro, or Salesforce Billing is central to the role. This role suits someone who can balance the demands of a recurring close with multi-quarter, cross-functional project work led by others.
