Senior Accountant
About Wunder
Wunder is building a Modern Energy Company.
We were founded with one simple vision: to address the greatest crisis of our generation by accelerating the deployment of solar energy. In doing so, we help businesses, municipalities, and schools save money by delivering clean on-site power. We convert simple warehouses into electrified industrial platforms built for the future. We enable the nation’s leading commercial and industrial real estate firms to capture the benefits of solar across their properties. We align ESG goals with revenue targets, and the renewable energy assets we’re deploying today will power America’s tomorrow.
Wunder currently holds more than $1 billion in solar assets under management and capital commitments. Our team has evaluated more than 10,000 properties for solar across all 50 states. Our average solar system—about 480 kilowatts in size—can offset 350,000 pounds of coal burned each year of system operation!
The Role
We have an amazing opportunity for an energetic, analytical, and detail-oriented accountant to join our team and push renewable energy forward. In this role, you will work closely with Wunder’s Director of Accounting to manage all financial operations in a rapidly scaling financial technology company. Specifically, you will be responsible for conducting monthly close, preparing monthly financial statements, developing budgets and analyzing spend trends, managing accounts payable, supporting annual audits, addressing technical accounting aspects, wrangling and manipulating large amounts of data, and helping define our financial processes and controls. In addition to corporate accounting, you will also be managing millions of dollars in commercial-scale solar assets spread across multiple entities.
If you get excited about bringing an entirely new asset class to market, building an organization aimed at saving the world, and ensuring all financial details are expertly managed, then this is the role for you.
