Revenue Operations Accounting Manager

Bestow is seeking a Revenue Operations Accounting Manager to join our growing Finance team. As we scale our enterprise SaaS business with an increasingly complex mix of subscription, usage-based, and hybrid commercial structures, this role is the accounting seat at the deal desk: embedded in the commercial process before contracts are signed, not after. This is an individual contributor role reporting to the Controller, working as a peer alongside the Revenue Accounting Manager. The Revenue Accounting Manager owns the close, technical accounting policy, and billing operations, supported by a Senior Revenue Accountant. You own what happens upstream: contract review, deal structuring guidance, commercial governance, and the quote-to-cash intake process that bridges Sales and Accounting. Your natural counterpart in the business is the Sales Operations Manager, and together you'll build the connective tissue between the commercial motion and financial execution. Bestow's revenue operations and deal desk function is still being built, and this role will help shape it. You'll help establish workflows and documentation, working closely with the Controller, Revenue Accounting Manager, and cross-functional partners to bring structure and best practice to this growing function. Some of our key systems are homegrown. If you thrive in that kind of environment, this is the right role for you. This role is open to Remote (US).

Deal Desk & Pre-Deal Contract Review Own the accounting seat in the deal desk, including reviewing MSAs, order forms, SOWs, and amendments before execution for revenue recognition implications. Identify and escalate ASC 606 issues in active deals: multi-element arrangements, performance obligation identification, standalone selling price (SSP) allocation, variable consideration, contract modifications, non-standard cancellation and refund provisions, SLA credits, and principal vs. agent questions. Advise Sales, Legal, and Strategic Finance on deal structure in real time, surfacing accounting risk early and proposing structures that achieve commercial goals without creating downstream complexity. Build from scratch the deal review workflows, approval thresholds for non-standard terms, deal checklists, and documentation standards that don't currently exist at scale. Serve as the business partner who translates accounting requirements into commercial language. Solution-oriented, not a compliance gate. Contract-to-Cash Intake & Operational Bridge Own the handoff from executed contract to accounting and billing system setup, ensuring contract terms are accurately translated into billing configurations and subscription structures. Partner with Sales Operations on CRM/CPQ and billing system accuracy.
