Job Description

We're looking for a junior, detail-oriented Finance Operations Specialist to support day-to-day finance workflows across corporate cards (Ramp/Divvy), checks, and payment operations. This role will help strengthen routine controls and reporting. The scope will start with transactional tasks and expand over time as the candidate ramps up.

  • Monitor and validate monthly cash back and other card program credits

  • Verify that payments/transactions processed successfully; resolve failed/pending transactions
  • Support basic vendor payment administration and documentation tracking
  • Controls, reporting, and analysis support
  • Perform routine sanity checks (missing transactions, duplicates, unusual spend)
  • Prepare weekly status updates: open items, urgent requests handled, exceptions, aging of pending receipts/items
  • Pull data and prepare basic spend analysis (by team/vendor, month-over-month variances) for review
  • Maintain organized documentation and audit trail in shared drives/tools
On-call / availability (important)
  • This role will occasionally need to respond to urgent card limit/plafond requests outside standard business hours (evenings/weekends), when time-sensitive purchases are blocking operations
  • Expectations and escalation rules will be defined (what qualifies as urgent, response time targets, and who approves increases)
Required qualifications
  • 1-3 years in finance operations, accounting support, AP, expense management, or similar
  • Comfortable working in fast-moving environments with frequent requests and shifting priorities
  • Strong attention to detail, ownership mindset, and ability to follow through
  • Strong communication skills (Slack/email) and good judgment in escalating issues
  • Solid Google Sheets/Excel skills (filters, pivots, lookups preferred)
Preferred qualifications
  • Experience with Ramp and/or Divvy (or similar tools)
  • Experience with QuickBooks Online and/or AP tools
  • Familiarity with basic accounting concepts (coding, GL, reconciliations)
  • Experience supporting multi-entity environments
Success metrics (first 15 days)
  • Reduce finance lead interruptions by taking ownership of card/payment operational requests
  • Same-day handling of standard limit changes; defined response targets for urgent requests
  • Weekly trackers/reporting consistently delivered and accurate
  • Clean audit trail for approvals and limit changes
