We’re reviewing applications on a rolling basis, so we recommend applying as soon as possible We expect you may want to know the answers to the following questions before you apply: What is the Finance team like at GiveWell? We approach accounting as more than keeping the books. It’s how GiveWell demonstrates the integrity and transparency that our donors and grantees rely on. We are at an exciting and important moment: building out the processes and systems that will allow our finance function to operate with accuracy and efficiency at scale. You’ll not only execute core accounting work with care and attention to detail, but also help us envision and build a better function, identifying where we can streamline, improve, and do things smarter as we grow. You’ll own meaningful work from day one, contributing to close processes, fund accounting, audit preparation, and more, all in service of an organization that moves large amounts of money carefully and transparently. This role is cross-functional by nature: you’ll need to communicate clearly with non-finance colleagues, navigate a growing and evolving organization, and look for ways to improve those processes and relationships as we build out the function. Our finance team is currently small but growing. We’re hiring a Senior Accountant and Staff Accountant, who will work alongside external contractors and our Controller to ensure the function operates with the accuracy and transparency GiveWell is known for. How does this role interact with other teams at GiveWell? Due to this role’s focus on donation and grants reconciliation, you’ll work closely with other Operations teams such as Gift Processing and Grants Administration. You may also collaborate with colleagues on Research Operations, Legal, and Philanthropy. This gives you the opportunity to learn from other teams and collaborate on process improvements outside of the Finance team. Who would do well in this role? You take pride in accuracy and find genuine satisfaction in getting the details right. You’re proactive, take ownership of your work, and thrive in a collaborative, evolving team. You’re a fast learner who can navigate ambiguity and help improve processes as the organization grows. You have a low-ego approach: you welcome feedback and care more about getting it right than being right. You’re aligned with GiveWell's _. What are some reasons I may not like this role? This role may not be a good fit if you prefer a highly structured environment with rigid processes and clear answers at all times. If you’re uncomfortable with open-ended projects or shifting priorities, or if cross-functional collaboration and supporting internal stakeholders isn’t something you enjoy, this role may not be the right match. Additionally, GiveWell embraces a culture of ongoing, direct feedback that isn’t limited to formal performance review cycles or filtered through a single reporting relationship. If you’re only comfortable receiving feedback in structured, periodic settings, GiveWell may not be the right fit for you. What does growth look like in this role? GiveWell’s finance function is still being built, and your growth will be tied directly to that. As the team and organization scale, you’ll have increasing opportunities to take on more complex and strategic projects, such as owning a process end-to-end, leading a system improvement, or taking on additional technical areas. For those interested, there may be a path toward a management role as the team expands, but there isn’t currently a set timeframe for that. In the meantime, there’s no shortage of opportunities to deepen your expertise, own meaningful improvements, have a real impact on GiveWell’s mission, and help shape a best-in-class nonprofit finance function. What does the hiring process for this position entail? We’ll use a combination of interviews and a work trial to assess the qualities described above. Our basic plan for the hiring process is listed below. If you move to step 2, you’ll be in touch with a member of our recruiting team who will quickly answer any questions about logistics and timelines. • Submit your application below.
