As the executing and clearing broker-dealer, DriveWealth LLC self-clears trades, custodies assets on behalf of introducing broker-dealers, and operates within a highly regulated, SEC/FINRA-supervised environment. As we scale, we're building a finance function with the rigor, precision, and technical depth this regulatory environment demands—and we're looking for a Senior Accountant to be a key contributor to that build-out.

You'll join a lean, high-caliber finance team at a firm operating at the intersection of fintech innovation and serious regulatory rigor. This is a role with real scope and visibility—your work directly supports the firm's regulatory filings and is seen by the CAO, Deputy CFO, and external auditors and regulators. As DriveWealth scales, so will your ownership of the close process.

This is a hands-on senior accounting role at the center of a self-clearing broker-dealer's monthly close. You will own a broad set of reconciliations, accruals, and journal entries spanning bank cash management, clearing and execution venue relationships, regulatory fee accruals, and interest income across multiple custodial and sweep banks. You'll work closely with Treasury, Operations, Regulatory Reporting, and the Controller's team, and your output feeds directly into the firm's FOCUS filings and net capital computations. This role suits someone who wants real ownership of a broker-dealer close process—not just a piece of it—and who is energized by the complexity of clearing, custody, and regulatory accounting.
