WhyHotel is a venture-backed startup on a mission to change the future of hospitality and home. With properties in five cities (and many more coming!) we operate a platform that allows buildings to blur the line between hotels and apartments. Our platform is an all-in-one solution which includes property operations, customer acquisitions, and the tech stack to operate with more flexibility than any other company in the market. Our tech-enabled buildings create a one-of-a-kind guest experience and tremendous value in the underlying real estate. Whether a guest or resident is with us for three days or three years, these are more than just spaces to spend the night—they are a place to call home.
Our property team members focus on bringing our business to life at each of our buildings with a focus on execution, and resident and guest experience. Our non-property team members focus on supporting property execution and the evolution of the other areas of the platform. The non-property roles are remote-first with the option to work out of our DC or SF offices. We think in-person collaboration and bonding is extremely important, so our remote-first team members participate in quarterly in-person retreats with their teams at various locations across the U.S.
Your job is to help the Finance and Accounting team gain control over cash management and expenses to ensure reporting produced by the Finance and Accounting team is accurate and timely. Accuracy will be measured by the company’s ability to complete a financial audit and timeliness will be measured by the Finance and Accounting team producing financial and cash management reports and analytics by the 15th of each month.
