Why work at Fincent

Operations at Fincent isn't just about "keeping the lights on"; it's about scaling a platform that serves thousands of small businesses.

  • Process Engineering: You get to design and refine the workflows that allow AI to handle 70-80% of bookkeeping tasks while ensuring the human "finishing touch" is seamless.

  • Direct Leadership Access: The operations team works closely with the Director and the founders, meaning your ideas for efficiency can be assessed and implemented quickly without the “corporate red tape” of a large organisation.

  • Remote Set -up: While many finance companies are returning to 100% office-based work, Fincent remains committed to a remote-first environment 
  • Global Collaboration: You’ll coordinate operations across US and India entities, gaining experience in international business compliance and global team management.

  • Flexibility: The culture focuses on outcome-based metrics rather than hours spent at a desk, which is a significant shift from the "billable hours" grind of traditional accounting operations

  • Cross-Training: You will gain exposure to Product and Engineering teams to help them understand how the software can better serve the operational needs of the bookkeepers.
  • L&D Programs: We provide specific training to keep the team updated on the latest in Fintech, AI, and modern accounting standards.
  • Tight-Knit Culture: "lean but not mean”— high standards for work quality but also a supportive, friendly atmosphere.
