(NOTE : A human reviews every application at Oceans, so please apply for only one position and only once a year if you're a better fit for another role, we'll route your application accordingly and if we're not quite ready for you, we'll reach back out later).

At Oceans, we help the best and brightest of Sri Lanka to take advantage of opportunities that otherwise wouldn't be available to them, while supporting entrepreneurs around the world. Our community (we call them Divers) don't do surface workthey go deep to solve complex challenges and make a real impact. And in doing so, they support bold ideas and expand their skills, broaden their expertise, and grow their careers, all without having to leave family and friends.

We're hiring an Accounting Manager to partner with a high-growth CPG brand that's redefining the healthy snacking space. With over $50M in annual revenue and a strong omnichannel presence across Amazon, Walmart, Shopify, and TikTok, the company is scaling rapidly and bringing its finance function in-house.

In this role, you'll lead daily accounting operations, manage compliance, and support leadership in building scalable finance processes. You'll oversee tax coordination, streamline reporting systems, and collaborate closely with external audit and tax partners. If you're a hands-on accountant who enjoys both transactional execution and strategic improvement, this role offers the chance to shape the financial backbone of a fast-growing business.

Accountability

As an Accounting & Tax Manager, your success will be defined by your ability to maintain accurate, GAAP-compliant financials while improving processes and supporting long-term scalability. You'll ensure smooth execution of daily accounting operations, oversee tax compliance, and help build automation and structure within the finance function. Here's how you'll make an impact :

  • Define and document standard operating procedures (SOPs) for accounting and reporting.
  • Partner with the Head of Finance on cash flow management, budgeting, and variance analysis.
  • Coordinate with external audit and tax partners (Moss Adams / Baker Tilly) for reviews and year-end adjustments.

Tax Compliance & Reporting

  • Oversee federal, state, and local tax compliance in coordination with external advisors.
  • Support preparation and filing of income, sales / use, and marketplace facilitator taxes.
  • Monitor evolving tax regulations impacting e-commerce and CPG sectors.
  • Liaise with external tax partners for audits, transfer pricing, and intercompany documentation.
  • Payroll & HR Compliance

  • Oversee payroll operations through Gusto, ensuring accuracy and timely submissions.
  • Manage payroll tax filings and ensure proper handling of W-2s, 1099s, and related compliance.
  • Support HR-related financial compliance, including expense reimbursements and benefits reporting.
  • Process Improvement & Systems Management

  • Optimize integrations between Fulfill ERP, DEXT, and banking systems.
  • Drive automation and efficiency across accounting and reporting workflows.
  • Strengthen internal controls and ensure audit readiness.
  • Provide leadership with timely reports, insights, and performance analyses.
  • Contribute to finance infrastructure improvements as the company expands globally.
  • Colleagues

    You'll work directly with the Finance Team to ensure financial accuracy and scalability.

    At Oceans, you'll also receive guidance and support from our Operations Manager, who will help you succeed in the role and ensure that you're continuously growing and developing in your career.
