ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

In short, as a Senior Accountant on our Financial Reporting team, you’ll help own the story DriveTime tells its lenders, rating agencies, auditors, and board. You’ll be a key preparer of our annual audited and quarterly financial statements and footnotes, the consolidations behind them, and the reporting leadership uses to run the business.

We’re also a team that actually uses AI. We use AI assistants and agents to draft, reconcile, research, and analyze, and we build our own tools when off-the-shelf ones don’t cut it. If you’d rather spend your time on judgment calls than on copying and pasting tie-outs, you’ll fit right in.

In Long, Our Financial Reporting Senior Accountants Are Responsible For:

• Preparing the annual audited and quarterly financial statements, including footnotes and supporting schedules.
• Owning pieces of the consolidation and intercompany process across DriveTime’s family of entities.
• Building the Quarterly Management Deck, Quarterly Board Presentation, and monthly reporting package delivered to leadership.
• Researching new and existing ASC standards, documenting their impact on our financial statements, and writing technical memos that hold up to audit review.
• Maintaining the account hierarchy that feeds every internal and external report.
• Coordinating close timing across departments so consolidated statements are delivered on time.
• Supporting external auditors with quarterly reviews and annual audits, including audit requests and disclosure support.
• Identifying manual, repetitive parts of the reporting process (disclosure drafting, flux and variance analysis, tie-outs, and data pulls) and using AI and automation to eliminate them.
• Building AI skills and Python scripts that automate recurring close and reporting work, and maintaining them so the whole team can reuse them.
• Evaluating and improving existing accounting processes, policies, and reporting.
