Hospitable is hiring! And not just for any ordinary accounting role. The Accountant in Residence will impact the products that we build for our customers.
Hospitable is building a moat with fintech solutions tailored to the short-term rental industry. We handle an ever growing volume of our customer's revenue and payment flow: processing direct bookings as the merchant of record, distributing property manager's payouts to their owners, and soon facilitating a marketplace of service providers. Reducing the tax and compliance burden on our hosts is a critical step for our mission to make short-term rentals trivial to operate.
Experience in lodging taxes is a must-have!
To accomplish this, you will:
- Support Product & Engineering for product and feature development.
- Support Finance & Direct team in payment of short-term rentals, sales and lodging taxes in the US, determining a strategy for global roll out.
- Work with Marketing and Support to create accounting and taxes related content and events, and educate our customers.
- Work with Sales & Professional Services for supporting customers in getting the best setup (Owners or Managers).
What we are looking for:
- Tax expertise: Deep understanding of sales and lodging tax calculation, filing, and remittance in the US market.
- Accounting fluency: Proficient with relevant topics like 1099-K reporting, material participation, and cost segregation.
- Industry experience: Awareness of the current short-term rental legal and compliance landscape.
- Ownership: Take responsibility and pride to deliver best-in-class outcomes.
- Communication: Excellent communication skills, with the ability to break down complicated concepts, like the fact that Andrew's favorite ice cream is pistachio.
- Passion: Obsessive drive to deliver value to our customers and help them succeed.
- Very special kudos if you are a short-term rental/Airbnb host.
- Everything else is a lovely bonus that we're excited to hear about!
