About Project Y
Project Y builds and develops talent and places them into global operating environments.
We partner with fast-growing companies in the United States and Europe to support their finance operations with structured workflows, modern tooling, and process ownership.
About the Role
We’re piloting a new approach to finance operations.
This is not a traditional accounting-only role.
It is not a bookkeeping-only position.
It is not a strategic finance advisory role.
This role sits within modern finance operations, where billing, revenue tracking, reporting, automation, and process ownership come together.
You will be employed by Project Y and work remotely with international client teams (primarily in the US and Europe), supporting their day-to-day finance operations.
As part of this pilot cohort, you will receive on-the-job exposure to AI-enabled tools and workflow automation used in finance operations.
This is an opportunity to gain experience operating in global finance environments while developing operational and technology-enabled finance skills.
Why This Role Exists
Many growing companies experience operational challenges such as:
• billing complexity
• slow reporting
• manual reconciliations
• fragmented finance systems
This role supports the execution layer that keeps finance operations accurate, visible, and efficient.
You’ll be part of a pilot cohort supporting this model while developing practical experience in modern finance workflows.
