About the Role

The Financial Operations Analyst owns the day-to-day financial operations of Class Kills while continuously improving how finance works across the company.

You’ll oversee the accounting lifecycle—from invoices and reconciliations to month-end close and financial reporting—while helping leadership better understand the financial health of the business through reliable reporting, job costing, and operational insights.

This is not a CFO role. You won’t be responsible for fundraising, investor relations, or executive financial strategy. Instead, you’ll own the operational accounting engine that keeps the business accurate, organized, and ready to grow.
