VidAngel operates as an independent entity based in Utah focused and building for scale. The company is now in a period of deliberate growth, professionalizing its core functions and investing in the infrastructure to support its next chapter. The Opportunity VidAngel is building out its internal finance capabilities and establishing a rigorous, scalable accounting function for the first time. Working under CFO guidance, the Senior Accounting Manager will help build the accounting function from the ground up — creating the systems, documentation, and reporting cadences that the business will rely on as it scales. This position carries high visibility with leadership and the board, and offers the kind of direct impact and ownership that is rare in more established organizations. On a given day, you might close the month, untangle a reconciliation, build a new process from scratch, or prep reporting for a board meeting.
