As a Senior Accountant at Wander, you'll help manage the financial backbone of two fast-growing businesses under one roof: wander.com, our consumer marketplace for short-term rentals, and wander.com/os, Wander OS — our SaaS platform that acts as the "Shopify" for vacation rental property managers. You'll join a lean, high-caliber finance team and play a critical role in keeping our books accurate and our financial processes scalable as we grow both businesses.

What you'll do

  • Own the month-end and year-end close process, including journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations

  • Prepare financial statements and supporting schedules for internal and external stakeholders
  • Partner cross-functionally with Revenue, Product, and Operations teams to keep accounting processes in step with new product launches
  • Support external audits, tax filings, and compliance requirements
  • Help build and improve accounting systems, processes, and internal controls as Wander scales

Qualifications

  • CPA nice to have but not required
  • 4+ years of progressive accounting experience; public accounting experience a plus
  • Strong knowledge of US GAAP, including revenue recognition for marketplace and SaaS business models
  • Experience in a high-growth startup environment preferred
  • Detail-oriented with strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines
  • Excellent communication skills and comfort partnering with cross-functional teams
  • Proficiency with accounting systems (e.g., NetSuite, QuickBooks) and strong spreadsheet skills
