We drive action, and (as appropriate/desired) take a leading role in getting our Clients where they need to go.Role & Responsibilities
  • Strategic Advising: Help communities thrive by working closely with City Managers, Finance Directors, and Public Works Directors to provide key insights to assist in their long-term, strategic decision making.
  • Build Meaningful Relationships: Earn trust and credibility as a go-to advisor for senior municipal leaders. Your consistency, integrity, and insight will form the backbone of lasting partnerships.
  • Turn Numbers into Stories: Use your accounting fundamentals to build, calibrate, and present financial models that drive action. You’ll spot what others miss; patterns, discrepancies, opportunities—and communicate insights with clarity and confidence.
  • Deliver Client Value at Every Touchpoint: Whether you’re writing an email, planning your week, or leading a model walkthrough, you’ll put the Client experience first, striving to exceed expectations every step of the way.
Training & OnboardingOur immersive training program equips you with deep knowledge in municipal government, financial management, SaaS, and Client Success. We’ll support your development every step of the way, with regular check-ins to help you grow and excel.What We’re Looking For
  • Accounting & Financial Acumen: You’ve studied and/or practiced accounting or finance, and you’re excited to apply that knowledge to real-world challenges in public sector contexts.
  • Confident Communicator: You’re comfortable engaging with senior city staff, elected officials and the public, and can present complex information with clarity and poise.
  • Growth Mindset: You want to build your analytical, software, and storytelling skills—and you’re not afraid to stretch outside your comfort zone.
  • Persuasive & Purpose-Driven: You can articulate how our solutions make a difference, and you’re motivated by meaningful work.
  • High-Energy Team Player: You bring enthusiasm and initiative to everything you do, and you're ready to contribute to a culture that’s fast-paced, ambitious, and fun.
