MAVI partners with high-growth US startups and SMEs, embedding experienced accounting professionals directly within their finance teams. This is not a traditional accounting manager role, you will own accounting operations for US clients, set the standard your team works to, and act as the senior accounting voice in the relationship.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Accounting Manager, you will own end-to-end accounting operations for US clients, lead a team of accountants and managers, and work as a peer to US Controllers and CFOs rather than a reporting line beneath them.

This is a senior seat with genuine authority. You will hold final review before numbers reach the client, decide how the work gets done across your accounts, and carry the accounting relationship when it matters through the close, through the audit, and through the conversations where a judgement has to be defended.

What You Will Own

Own end-to-end accounting (Record-to-Report) across multiple US clients or entities

Lead, mentor, and develop a team of accountants, and set the standard their work is held to

Own the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close cycles, with accountability for the calendar and cycle time

Hold final review over financial statements under US GAAP before they reach the client, and stand behind them

Own technical accounting positions — revenue recognition, accruals, and capitalisation — and document the judgements behind them

Establish and enforce accounting policies, internal controls, and close procedures across your accounts

Act as the senior US client contact, building relationships at Controller and CFO level





Own audit readiness and manage auditor interactions through to resolution of findings

Lead ERP implementations, migrations, and process automation rather than incremental workflow fixes

Build the close checklists, SOPs, and documentation that let the function run without depending on any single individual

Advise US finance leadership on accounting risks and the implications of business decisions

What We're Looking For

8+ years of accounting experience with deep US GAAP expertise

Demonstrated ownership of a full close cycle and financial statements on an independent basis

Proven team management experience, including reviewing and developing other accountants

Experience managing an audit, including direct interaction with external auditors through to resolution

Experience with multi-entity or multi-client accounting and consolidation preferred

ERP experience (Net Suite, Sage Intacct, Quick Books, Toast, or similar), including implementation or migration exposure

CA / CPA / ACCA (or equivalent) strongly preferred

Excellent English communication, with the confidence to defend a conclusion in front of senior stakeholders

Ability to work with US time zone overlap

Why Join MAVI?

Own accounting for some of the most exciting US companies, with authority to match

Build and lead high-performing accounting teams

Fast-track career path to Controller, Head of Accounting, and Head of Finance roles

Lead ERP transformations, audits, and control build-outs rather than supporting them

Adaptable remote work with global impact
