About MAVI – Built for the Future of Finance
Own US Accounting. Grow with Scaling Businesses.
Mavi partners with high-growth US startups and SMEs, embedding experienced accounting professionals directly within their finance teams to drive impact where it matters most.
We focus on building leadership-ready accounting talent who want exposure to scaling businesses, direct US collaboration, and broader ownership beyond routine execution.
This isn't static. This is an opportunity to build, scale, and grow alongside ambitious US companies.
The Opportunity
Lead Finance. Influence Decisions. Scale Global Businesses.
As a Lead Accountant (US GAAP), you will take full ownership of financial reporting, close processes, and team delivery across multiple US clients.
You will operate as a trusted partner to US leadership (Controllers, CFOs, Founders) — combining technical accounting expertise with business insight and leadership.
This role is ideal for professionals coming from consulting firms, Big4, or high-performance finance environments, looking to move into a high-ownership, client-facing leadership role.
What You'll Do (Leadership + Impact)
- Lead preparation and review of financial statements, management reports, and business insights
- Own and drive the month-end close process across multiple clients with a focus on accuracy, timelines, and scalability
- Ensure data integrity and strong internal controls across all assigned accounts
- Analyze financial results, deliver variance analysis (vs. plan & prior periods), and present insights to client leadership
- Investigate and resolve reporting discrepancies with speed and clarity
- Lead KPI reporting, including 13-week cash flow forecasting and performance metrics
- Design, implement, and strengthen internal control frameworks
- Lead external audit coordination, ensuring readiness and smooth execution
- Review and oversee General Ledger activities and reconciliations
- Partner cross-functionally with FP&A, AP, Treasury, IT, and other business teams
- Drive process improvements, automation, and AI adoption in accounting workflows
- Lead and mentor junior team members, providing direction, review, and performance feedback
- Take ownership of ad hoc finance projects, strategic analysis, and process transformation initiatives
What We're Looking For
- 8–12 years of experience in accounting/finance, with strong exposure to US GAAP
- Background in consulting firms, Big4, investment banking, or high-growth companies preferred
- Strong experience in financial reporting, close processes, and internal controls
- Proven ability to manage teams and deliver in a client-facing environment
- Hands-on experience with ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, etc.)
- Strong analytical capabilities with ability to work on large datasets (advanced Excel skills required)
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, especially with senior leadership
- Ability to multi-task, prioritize, and operate in a fast-paced environment
- Active CPA mandatory | MBA (top-tier) is a plus
