Finance and Operations Associate

At Everlane, we’re reimagining the way fashion works. We have no physical stores, no middlemen taking their cut and no crazy brand markups. Instead, we design our own modern basics and sell them exclusively at Everlane.com. Since launching in November 2011, Everlane has attracted over 500,000 members. Everlane is funded by Khosla Ventures, Maveron, Kleiner Perkins, and has been featured in The New York Times, New York Magazine, The Economist, Elle, and GQ.

Everlane is seeking a Financial and Operations Associate to support the day-to-day financial operations of the company and develop new methods that will allow the business to scale. You will have your hands in finance, production and logistics, helping each group optimize its current workflow and better track the financial impacts of key decisions. This includes working closely with our operations and production group on scaling the business, working with our accounting group to plan and track inventory from raw goods to finished inventory, and managing Everlane’s financial model.

We are looking for someone from a top tier school and training program that wants to dive into a retail startup. The ideal candidate is out of finance and is looking to transition (or has) into operations.

This position is full time in San Francisco.

  • Present weekly updates on cash burn, forecasts and strategic recommendations
  • Develop inventory buying and management processes
  • Optimize shipping to keep costs low and customers happy
  • Manage cash flow and expenses across group functions
  • Work closely with our outsourced accounting team to track expenses
  • Work within Quickbooks to update and oversee management

Qualifications:

  • 1-2 years experience at a top investment bank/consulting/accounting firm and degree from top university
  • Very strong background in accounting and three financial statements
  • An intense curiosity that keeps you up at night solving problems
  • Very hard-working, bordering on perfectionist; highly-organized
  • Able to work well in teams and have a sense of humor
  • Passion for retail, minimalist design and disrupting an age-old industry
  • Already a fan of the Everlane spirit
