This is a remote position.
Berkeley is a Financial Technology company that's rewriting the rules of B2B payments. We're building smart, scalable, and secure payment infrastructure for our partners—and we're just getting started. Founded in 2005, Berkeley is a nimble, high-growth fintech, where every team member has the chance to contribute in meaningful, visible ways.
We have an amazing opportunity for an ambitious accounting specialist who thrives at the intersection of finance operations and innovation. You'll play a hands-on role in delivering financial accuracy, driving process automation, and building key frameworks to support our next stage of growth.
The Accounting Systems & Reconciliation Specialist role is ideal for someone with a strong foundation in accounting and finance who's ready to step up, learn, and eventually lead. Your work will touch every part of the Finance operation—from client payments to GL entries, from daily reconciliations to process design.
You'll inherit the core functions of a traditional AP/AR role—but your real mandate is to optimize, automate, and own. We want someone who can think critically, act proactively, and help elevate the performance of the finance team through automation, insight, and execution excellence.
