Are you a numbers nerd? Do you get a kick out of budgeting and increasing profitability?

Then you will want to keep reading!

My name is Chandler Bolt, and I run an Online Education company called Self Publishing School. We help people write and publish a book that grows their impact, income, and business.

We believe that "books change lives" and in "leveraged impact" (I talk about this in my TEDx talk here). We jump out of bed every day excited to change people's lives through books.

If you're reading this, you're interested in the Accountant / Financial Analyst position at Self Publishing School (or maybe you know someone who would be a fit). This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the right person.

You'll have a front row seat (and major responsibility / autonomy) at one of the fastest growing companies in America (INC 5,000 the last 2 years in a row).

Your mission (should you choose to accept it): is to provide data and insights to help grow Self Publishing School's revenue as fast as possible, while also finding ways to reduce expenses and grow profitability.

It's a big job with a lot of responsibility. Keep reading if you have what it takes to get the job done…

POSITION SUMMARY
You MUST be:

Ready to learn, be challenged, and grow a ton
An analytical thinker who loves testing, digging into the numbers, and making data-driven decisions
An experienced analyst who isn't afraid to get their hands dirty, be scrappy, and execute quickly
This is done by fanatically understanding all the numbers at SPS and really living in the data daily. Specifically, you'll focus on 3 areas:

Fast and accurate bookkeeping
Analysis of financial data and recommendations on where we can improve performance
Cost cutting and finding ways to operate more efficiently
When the job is done correctly, our most profitable centers at SPS are growing quickly and becoming more profitable and our underperforming areas are analyzed to improve performance with a high focus on doing more of what's working… thus reducing expenses and growing profit/revenue.

KPI's:
Total Expenses (reducing them as a %)
Lower operating expenses
LER
COGS
Reduce Merchant fee %

NOTE: This position full-time and virtual. Meaning you can work from anywhere. The team here at SPS is located around the world, with the majority of us in North America. Preference for this position is someone working in the US or Canada.

DISQUALIFIERS: Please DO NOT apply to this position if you:

Have no interest in books (and using books to change people's lives)
Are intimidated by analytics, KPIs, and aggressive growth goals
Get bored with the day-to-day of implementation and execution
Are afraid to roll up your sleeves alongside the team to get the job done
Have never used spreadsheets
Are not interested in numbers

If none of these things can be said of you, then please continue reading…

Qualifications:
At Self Publishing School, we value work ethic, coachability, attitude, and past results you've delivered significantly more than your degree (or lack thereof), GPA, etc.

Have you delivered results in a similar role in the past? If so, that's what we're looking for.

That being said, feel free to apply even if you don't "tick the boxes" below. Just be sure to mention that in your application + why we should consider you.

Required:

1 year of experience with Accounting/Business Analysis
1 year of experience with Bookkeeping
1 year of experience with Quickbooks or similar accounting software
Excellent written and verbal English communication
Ability and willingness to keep maintain confidentiality
Ability to multitask, prioritize, and organize efficiently
Familiarity with accounting and corporate finance principles and procedures
Prefered:

Bachelor's degree in accounting, business analysis, or finance
Understanding tax law and tax savings strategies
2 year of experience with Accounting/Business Analysis
Desire to continue to grow through continuing training
Experience with statistical analysis and financial forecasting
Attention to detail and the ability to identify data patterns

THE PAY
$50,000 – $65,000; depending on qualification and experience.

Also includes the following benefits:

Top tier healthcare: your choice of high quality healthcare (for US-based full-time employees)
Bi-weekly house cleaning: get your house cleaned every two weeks, on the company! : )
Work remotely: save $5k/year in commuting costs and 100+ hrs each year (aka. 2 ½ extra weeks of "time off")
