Job description

Join Archive in our mission to change consumer behavior for the better. If you think humans buy too much stuff and throw too much away, then this problem is for you. We’re starting with fashion and expanding from there.

  • Develop and implement financial strategies to support the company's growth and profitability
  • Location: US-Based. Remote, with some travel for in-person collaborative work. We also have an office in NYC for those who prefer to work in office.

  • You are extremely organized with strong attention to detail
  • You have an analytical mindset and are able to pick up technical concepts quickly
  • You are deeply self-motivated and excited to be one of the first hires at an early startup
  • You’re excited about joining a small, early-stage team and are willing to wear many hats and work creatively to improve brands’ business and experience with us.
  • You are mission-driven and love the fact that the better we do as a company, the less waste we’ll see in the world.

  • Skills & Experience
  • Bachelor's degree in business administration, finance, accounting, or a related field
  • 5-10 years of work experience, ideally within in corporate finance and/or accounting (CPA or work towards a CPA is a plus)
  • Proficient with accounting and finance related software, including Quickbooks, as well as Microsoft Excel/Google Sheets
  • Demonstrated ability to manage financial statements historically and projecting financial scenarios into the future
  • Demonstrated project management skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Strong organizational skills, with the ability to balance and prioritize multiple projects at a time
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • The expected annual base salary range for this position is $150,000 - $190,000 .
