What you'll do

  • Design multi-step tasks drawn from real finance and accounting work — FP&A analysis, financial reporting, audit procedures, reconciliations — with realistic reference files and clear instructions
  • Define objective grading criteria so two qualified reviewers would reach the same verdict on the same output
  • Build tasks that require judgment rather than lookup, where the right answer depends on reading the materials correctly
  • Create or source the supporting materials each task needs: spreadsheets, GL extracts, financial statements, policy documents
  • Flag tasks that turn out to be ambiguous or ungradable instead of submitting them anyway
  • Deliver approved tasks on schedule and at the required quality level

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of hands-on responsibility in FP&A, financial reporting, audit, reconciliations, or accounting — direct ownership of the work, not supervisory-only or adjacent exposure
  • Experience creating or applying structured review standards: audit programs, review checklists, close checklists, grading rubrics, or training assessments
  • Strong Excel capability and comfort reasoning across multiple documents at once
  • Strong written English
  • Strong English required (B2 advanced or C1 minimum)

Nice to have

  • CPA, CA, ACCA, CMA or equivalent
  • AI or LLM evaluation experience
