About Auror

At Auror, we’re empowering the retail industry to tackle theft and Organised Retail Crime, a $150 Billion problem globally. It’s high volume crime that’s increasingly organised in nature and is putting people, retailers, and communities at risk every day.

Founded in New Zealand 12 years ago, we’re working with some of the best and largest retailers in the world across the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.

Auror is connecting people and intelligence to reduce crime. We’re using technology for good. 

In partnership with our leading retail partners, we need people with the passion, determination, and innovation required to overcome one of the world's largest problems. If you’re looking to make a difference with and for the people dedicated to stopping crime, for good, then we want you on our team.

We're also embracing the potential of AI to supercharge our impact—whether that's enhancing the way we detect trends, support our customers, or improve internal workflows. As a company, we're committed to responsibly incorporating AI into how we work and what we build, and we encourage all Aurors to be curious about how AI can elevate their work, regardless of role or function.

The Role

As our Accountant, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring the accuracy, integrity, and scalability of Auror’s finance operations across North America.

Reporting to the Director of Finance, you will own key regional finance processes end-to-end, including month-end close, payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, tax compliance, and operational reporting, ensuring they are accurate, timely, and aligned with both local regulatory requirements and IFRS group reporting standards.

You’ll be a strong team member, trusted to independently manage core financial processes while serving as a key business partner to the North America team. You’ll not only deliver high-quality financial outputs, but also proactively improve systems, simplify workflows, and drive automation and AI adoption that enables Auror to scale efficiently in a high-growth environment.

Practically, this will involve:

• Taking ownership of reporting across the North American region, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. Preparing variance analyses and commentary that connect financial results to business performance.
• Maintaining reconciliations, journals, and compliance with relevant accounting standards and internal controls.
• Owning the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable process for North America, ensuring timely and accurate invoicing, strong customer and vendor management, effective controls, and proactive visibility over cashflow impacts including FX and risk considerations.
• Partnering with stakeholders to explain financial results and identify opportunities for improvement. Developing and maintaining financial reports and dashboards that drive visibility and accountability across the North American business.
• Leading finance transformation initiatives both within the region and globally, including automation and AI adoption, process simplification, and system enhancements.
• Supporting forecasting and planning cycles, helping regional teams plan effectively and make informed decisions.
• Identifying and managing financial and compliance risks, ensuring high standards of accuracy, governance, and operational discipline across North America.
• Supporting North American tax compliance, including leading annual income tax filings, state sales tax requirements, payroll-related filings, and ensuring intercompany activity aligns with Auror’s transfer pricing policy.
• Payroll compliance, ensuring accurate processing, timely statutory payments, and adherence to all federal and state reporting requirements.
• Supporting the group audit, coordinating regional deliverables, preparing required documentation, and ensuring accurate, timely responses to auditor requests.

This role reports to Abby Apter, Director of Finance, North America.

I joined Auror in January, excited by the significant growth opportunities unfolding in North America. My experience spans a variety of company sizes and stages, so it is exciting to be building processes and directly contributing to the success of our team and the broader business. The Auror team is exceptional; they are genuine people who are passionate about their work and, more importantly, how they collaborate. Outside of work, I'm busy chasing my young son, heading up to the mountains to ski, enjoying the Denver sunshine while gardening, and fitting in Peloton workouts to balance out my love for sweets.

About you

You’re a technically strong accountant or finance professional who combines operational excellence with commercial curiosity. You care about accuracy and compliance, but you’re equally motivated by improving systems, simplifying complexity, and helping the business scale.

Here’s what you’ll bring:

• Location: You’re based in the Denver area, with the ability to collaborate closely with our North American team.
• Experience: at least 3–5 years’ experience in accounting, financial operations or financial reporting roles, ideally within a fast-growing, multi-entity, or SaaS environment.
• Technical expertise: Proven ability to prepare financial reporting, perform reconciliations, and provide clear financial analysis.
• Analytical mindset: Strong data analysis and interpretation skills, with the ability to translate complexity into actionable insights to support business decisions.
• Tools & systems: Skilled in Xero, Excel/Google Sheets and modern finance systems.
• Ownership: You take full accountability for your work, delivering high-quality results and continuously seeking opportunities to improve.
• Collaboration: You build strong, trusted relationships and communicate financial information clearly across teams and regions.
• Curiosity & improvement: You love refining processes, enhancing accuracy, and leveraging technology to make finance more effective and scalable.

We are looking for people who demonstrate a strong alignment to our Guiding Principles (you can find these on our Careers page).

We celebrate diversity and inclusiveness at Auror, regardless of (but not limited to) race, gender, sexual orientation, family status, religion, ethnicity, national origin, physical disability, veteran status, or age.

If you need adjustments to any part of our recruitment process because of accessibility reasons, please do not hesitate to let us know during the application process. We will work with you to identify adjustments that will allow you to perform at your best.

• Competitive salary range: Depending on level of experience, between $95,000 - $115,000.
• Employee share scheme: You’ll own part of a company making a real difference!
• Flexibility: We are hard-working and outcome focused, but recognise there is more to life than work. We promote a healthy work/life blend.
• Shorter work weeks (at full pay): Everyone gets Friday afternoons off, so you can start your weekend early, and do more of whatever it is that makes you happy.
• Focus on mental and physical health: We understand how vital our health is and have policies to support your wellness, including Wellness Days, and up to $500 USD for expert sessions every year.
• Health care plan (Medical, Dental & Vision): Auror covers 100% of the cost of your individual health insurance plan with Anthem & Metlife.

• Personal growth: We support our team to participate in courses, conferences, or events that will help them develop their skills.
• Team love: We have regular team lunches and social events where most (if not all) activities are during work hours.
