The Role

Netflix is still relatively new to Gaming and this role provides you the chance to join a team that is committed to transforming the perception of what entertainment is and how it can be enjoyed through the Netflix service. It's a great time to join our team as we build out workflows and systems to account for our Games business from the ground up and we continue to look for the best and brightest talent to scale with our growth opportunity. Additionally, Localization is a critical area of our Television and Film business and is key to us being able to share content our members love globally.

QUALITIES WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Fundamentals of Accounting- We'd like you to have 3+ years of relevant accounting experience under your belt backed by a bachelor's degree in accounting and/or finance; CPA license is preferred.

• Industry experience is not essential if you are enthusiastic about the position, have a strong accounting background and are capable of learning quickly. A love for gaming or accounting experience at a gaming company is a plus!

• Attention to detail + love for data - We pride ourselves on producing high quality work, scrutinizing important numbers and formulas for accuracy, and using spreadsheets and system data to reconcile accounts and solve problems; we like our accountants to love Excel pivot tables and be unphased by large data sets.

• Enthusiasm and quick learning - Enthusiasm for designing and building new accounting systems and making improvements to existing systems. Prior work with contract review (revenue, leases, or other complex documents), data entry and analysis, research, and other problem-solving tasks is helpful, but we understand you probably have never done content accounting. That's OK with us because we'll teach you as long as you're excited about learning.

• Curiosity and passion - Our team members ask probing questions, challenge the status quo, make changes to improve processes, have a constant eye for innovation, and have fun while doing it all; positive attitude and never settling for “good enough” are key, along with fitting into our unique company culture.

• Adaptable - You have to be comfortable in an ever-changing eco-system of content, finance and accounting issues and projects.

• You embrace and advocate the Netflix culture (https://jobs.netflix.com/culture/#introduction) and our long-term view (https://www.netflixinvestor.com/ir-overview/long-term-view/default.aspx) .
