Who we’re looking for:

Zwift is looking for a qualified accountant to provide accounting and finance support in our Long Beach office. You will carry out responsibilities in financial accounting areas such as purchase requisition, accounts payable, general ledger and account reconciliations. You are expected to be a quick learner with the ability to grasp new concepts and apply accounting knowledge when performing tasks.

About Zwift:

Zwift is the fitness company born from gaming, and we’re on a mission to make More People. More Active. More Often. The Zwift platform delivers an at-home training game that connects cyclists and runners in over 195 countries and counting! Launched from the sunny shores of Long Beach, California in 2014, we’ve grown to over 300 Watopians (that’s what we call our employees) and we have people in New York, Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, and London.

Some reasons we think you will love it here:

We are an encouraging, innovative, and passionate team. We like bikes. We like running. We also like local ice cream shops, game nights, and our "Pets of Zwift" Slack channel. You'll be surrounded by awe-inspiring people, even in your remote work setting. Although there are amazing athletes that work here; our team consists of people from all walks of life. Whether you’re a current Zwifter, at the beginning of your fitness journey, or neither one of these, there is a place for you here. Different perspectives are important, they allow us to continually grow and evolve - One Zwift for All!

Did we mention that we encourage you to workout while you work from home? Zwift, run, yoga….we’re in!

How we’re handling Covid-19:
We are beyond grateful to continue to grow as a company during this unusual time. Our #1 priority is to ensure the health, safety, and sanity of our current and future Watopians. We want to share with you what we’re doing and what you can expect.
Since March, all of our Watopians have been working remotely and will continue to do so until we know it is safe to collaborate in person again. As you go through the virtual interview process, don't be alarmed if children or pets make a guest appearance. We won't think twice if we get to meet members of your family. If we are fortunate to welcome you to the team, we will get you all the necessary equipment, hardware, and furniture needed to get you ergonomically set up and productive at home.

Work From Home (WFH) life can be challenging in many ways. We have and will continue to take steps that ease some of the burden for our Watopians including:

  • Monthly stipends to help offset additional expenses incurred with WFH.
  • Access to mental health & wellness resources including Headspace, Unmind, and Spring Health.

We care about you as our candidate too, so let your Talent Engagement Partner know if there’s anything we can do to make your interview process go more smoothly. We are in this together and always looking for ways to enhance our new interview experience.

  • Coordinate and oversee purchase requisition in Paramount Workplace. Assist various department personnel to prepare purchase requisitions. Ensure purchase requisitions are approved and adhere to budget guidelines.
  • Manage company credit card charges. Ensure appropriate approval for purchases, and documented by receipts. Reconcile company credit card expense reports using Expensify.

  • Assist with month-end, quarter-end and year-end closing processes and year-end audit.
  • Assist with property tax, sales/use tax and franchise tax returns.
  • Perform such other accounting and financial tasks as may be required from time to time.

What we’re looking for:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Business Administration with concentration in Accounting.

  • Must be able to work in a fast-paced environment, be proactive and self motivated.
  • Communicate effectively and possess interpersonal skills.
  • Strong technology skills using Excel, Google Sheets. Knowledge of Expensify, Paramount Workplace, and Sage Intacct helpful.

How to stand out among the rest:

Your resume is enough to show off your skills, accomplishments, and experience. However, if you choose to include a cover letter introducing us to your awesome personality, we will read that too.

Of course, we are nothing without our values. Our values ground us. They ensure we run and build a company where people love to work, feel like they are welcomed, included, and belong. Only then can they thrive and do their best work. The values we strive to live every day are:
