Review and account for purchase orders, BOMs, and multi-vendor inventory transactions
Reconcile inventory balances across ingredients, packaging, and finished goods
Support operational workflows tied to manufacturing, inventory movement, and cost accuracy
Identify discrepancies, risks, or process gaps and proactively recommend fixes
Partner closely with the founder and operations team on financial clarity and cash flow visibility
Software / Platforms / Tools:
Accounting software (QuickBooks Online or similar)
Inventory, BOM, and purchase order tracking systems
Google Sheets or Excel (advanced proficiency)
Cloud-based file storage and collaboration tools

Strong background in inventory accounting, BOMs, and purchase order workflows
Demonstrated ability to manage full-cycle monthly close independently
High attention to detail with strong ownership and accountability
Comfortable working directly with a founder in a lean environment
Senior-level judgment with minimal need for coaching

Monday to Friday, with some overlap with US business hours preferred
