Accounting and Financial Operations Manager
GoodParty.org is looking for an Accounting and Financial Operations Manager to join our mission to make people matter more than money in our democracy. You’ll help drive financial integrity, transparency, and efficiency across the organization in a fully remote, fast-growing startup.
About GoodParty.org:
A majority of voters, including more than half of Millennials and Gen Z, say that neither major party represents them. GoodParty.org is the solution.
We're on a mission to make people matter more than money in our democracy by empowering Independent candidates to run, win, and serve.
Since 2024, 13,000+ Independent candidates have won their races across all 50 states using our tools, training, and support. Our AI-powered platform provides free tools to launch and run campaigns, connect with voters, and serve their communities effectively. The only things our elected officials have in common is that they prioritize people over parties and community over corporate interests. We’re not a political party, we’re a platform and a movement to democratize democracy.
Founded by serial entrepreneur Farhad Mohit ($1B+ in exits, including Flipagram/TikTok and Shopzilla), GoodParty.org is building solutions so we can have a truly representative democracy where society’s biggest problems are solved.
What you’ll do:
Own the accounting function, manage and execute core accounting operations, ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting.
Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes, maintaining organized reconciliations and clean audit trails.
Oversee payroll processing and compliance using Rippling, ensuring accuracy and confidentiality.
Build smarter systems to review, code, and reconcile credit card transactions, bill payments, and reimbursements with less manual work and more automation.
Manage compliance with accounting standards, tax requirements, and organizational policies.
Utilize QuickBooks Online (QBO) for general ledger maintenance and reconciliations.
Grow into revenue and expense analyses to support strategic financial decision-making.
Partner with leadership to prepare reports for board meetings and funding partners.
Drive process improvements to increase efficiency and strengthen internal controls.
Reports to Director of Business Operations.
Who we’re looking for:
You’re up for the audacious challenge of driving money out of politics and democratizing democracy.
You have 2–5 years of accounting experience, ideally in a startup or mission-driven environment.
You’re detail-oriented, analytical, and committed to financial accuracy and integrity.
You’re proficient in QuickBooks Online (QBO) and have hands-on experience with Rippling payroll systems.
You geek out on using AI tools or automation to improve financial processes and have contributed to building or improving financial systems or workflows from scratch.
You are ready to own the accounting engine and excel when asked to share subject matter expertise with others.
You’re able to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines with minimal supervision.
You communicate complex financial concepts clearly and effectively to non-finance team members.
You thrive in a remote, collaborative, and fast-paced work environment.
You’re driven by impact and motivated by the mission of building a better democracy.
Bonus if:
You have experience working in a Public Benefit Corporation or nonprofit organization.
You bring advanced financial expertise backed by a CPA, CMA, CFA, or equivalent professional credential, demonstrating your commitment to excellence and integrity in financial management.
You have a proven track record of building and maintaining multi-year financial projections and forecasts.
You’ve studied, worked, or volunteered in politics, civics, or democracy reform.
You’re tired of sitting on the sidelines while democracy fails to meet its potential — and you’re ready to act.
Why you should work at GoodParty.org:
Join us in solving the biggest problem of our time – fixing our democracy – so all other problems can be solved.
We’re a Public Benefit Corporation that prioritizes social impact over profit.
Innovative Bitcoin denominated deferred bonus plan, allowing you to have the amazing upside of being in a startup while working on a truly meaningful mission.

Join a passionate team with diverse political views focused on one mission.

We encourage you to take time off to recharge and have an unlimited PTO (sick and vacation) policy. This is a marathon, not a sprint. We believe a work-life balance is needed to get there.
401(k) program available so you can contribute toward retirement savings (no employer match).
Individual learning & development budget to fund your growth.
We’ll make sure you’ve got what you need to work remotely through our workspace setup stipend.
If you work from home, we give $50/month to help with your internet and other expenses. If you prefer co-working, that’s an option we can discuss too.
Fully funded for our mission. No stressing over whether the next round of funding will come through. Focus on making an impact. That’s what matters here.
