Watershed is the enterprise sustainability platform. Companies like Airbnb, Carlyle Group, FedEx, Visa, and Dr. Martens use Watershed to manage climate and ESG data, produce audit-ready metrics for voluntary and regulatory reporting including CSRD, and drive real decarbonization. We are looking for team members who love product-building, want to work hard at a mission-oriented startup, and will collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team.
We have offices in San Francisco, New York, London and Sydney, and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!
As we establish our strategic presence in Mexico City, we're seeking an exceptional Accounting Manager to help drive our expansion while maintaining world-class financial operations. This role offers an opportunity to make a significant impact not only on our business but also on global climate action.
As Accounting Manager, you'll play a dual strategic role: leading our accounting operations in Mexico City and helping to establish our new office, which will become a major hub for Watershed's global operations. This role is critical to ensuring accurate financial reporting, compliance with accounting standards, and establishing scalable policies and processes to support Watershed's ambitious growth trajectory.
You'll take ownership of the monthly and quarterly close process, financial reporting, and the application of technical accounting guidance in key areas such as revenue recognition. Working closely with cross-functional teams—including Sales, Customer Success, HR, Legal, and Product—you'll establish and streamline accounting processes that support our mission.
This is an exceptional opportunity to be one of the founding members of our Mexico City office. As we grow, your role will evolve with increasing responsibilities and leadership opportunities, including the chance to build and mentor your own team of finance professionals.
Where does Watershed work?
We have hub offices in San Francisco, New York and London, and some remote team members in the US and EU. Most of our jobs need to be in San Francisco / New York / London, but certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description.
What’s the interview process like?
It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience screen (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel after that if the screens go well. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.
Please note Watershed will only conduct interviews via official company channels (Google Workspace, Zoom). We do not use platforms such as Signal, WhatsApp, etc. to conduct official interviews nor to complete any part of our onboarding process. If you are reached out to on these platforms from anyone claiming to be from Watershed please let us know.
