Full Job Description

Why Join Stand: At Stand, you’ll help build a new class of global property protection. We use advanced physics and AI to model catastrophic risk at the asset level, then automate underwriting and mitigation before loss occurs. Insurance is simply the current delivery mechanism. The real product is a scalable risk engine. We stay when traditional insurers exit. We model what others approximate. And we build systems that change outcomes, not just prices. Background: The property insurance industry is built to price loss after it happens. It relies on coarse proxies, backward-looking data, and manual processes, then accepts damage as unavoidable. Stand takes a different approach. We simulate how real-world catastrophes affect individual properties, translate that into actionable decisions, and automate the business around it. The result is a platform that can underwrite what others can’t and operate with far less friction. Role Summary: Stand is looking for a hands-on Senior Accountant to own the day-to-day accounting execution that keeps our financial records accurate, reconciled, documented, and ready for close across the parent company, captive, and reciprocal. Reporting to the Controller, this role will manage core close activities, maintain clean entity-level accounting, support insurance-related accounting workflows, and help build repeatable finance processes as Stand scales. What You Will Own: - Execute recurring monthly close activities, including assigned GL accounts, journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules. - Prepare accruals, prepaids, fixed assets, cash, credit card, expense, AP, and vendor reconciliations with clear supporting documentation. - Maintain accurate books across Stand’s multi-entity structure, including HoldCo, captive, reciprocal, intercompany activity, allocations, cash activity, and expense coding. - Support insurance accounting activities, including premium, claims, loss, LAE, policy billing and servicing, and reinsuranc
